Do you have any favorites?
I like Sleepy Hollow, and Bram Stoker's Dracula, and movies that are based on legends like that. Films that take place in past eras.

To be honest, i'm not really into horror-movies, because I find a lot of them to be too gory for my liking. However, I really liked the new Poltergeist movie that was released a few years ago. Have you watched it at all? I don't think I've ever watched Sleepy Hollow and Dracula. I have watched a few episodes of the TV series based on Sleepy Hollow before, but I can't recall ever watching the movie.

I love Horrors. I prefer the creature and masked Horrors such as Freddy, Jason, Michael, etc.
But I also love paranormal horrors too.

I'm not really a fan of Horror movies myself, although there are a few movies which I don't mind. Just out of curiosity, what are your favourite Horror movies?

I just watched the first seven Saw movies out of sudden morbid curiosity. I "binged" them because despite the senseless violence the movies actually follow a fairly complex and dense storyline throughout. Though it was definitely a mixed experience for the most part.
The first three movies have fairly nice plots despite the extremely gory nature of them, with surprising endings that tie everything nicely together for the most part.
Though from Saw IV onward, the movies completely derail and clearly suffer from franchise fatigue. You would probably expect the culprit to be an excessive focus on gore and thin plots, but quite the opposite actually. The Saw IV+ movies try way too hard to connect everything together to appear more well-thought out than they are, creating huge plot holes in the process, as well as focusing too much on shocking twists and turns rather than telling a coherent story. The best post-III movie is easily Saw VI because of the clever theme of its "subplot" (which takes the majority of the screentime mind you), despite its nonsensical and random contributions to the main storyline and setting everything up for the absolutely disastrous "Saw: The Final Chapter" and its mind-bogglingly awful ending. All I can say is that movie had the absolute worst and most nonsensical ending twist I've ever seen.
I didn't saw "Jigsaw" (2017) because it seems fairly unrelated to the franchise's main plot, and also looks off-puttingly modern compared to the previous movies which all were released every year between 2004 and 2010.
