Ive seen a shitload of horror movies too my friend, and I also own a veritable Lexicon of horror flicks.

Movies are art, and Art is subjective...you dont like it fine, thats cool....but we cant have a discussion if you dont back up your opinion.

Yeah, I liked Last House on the Left...again, this wasnt one of my favorite movies, but it was the best one I think Wes ever did (and I think THAT was his first movie, if I remember right)....

he did a good job of updating a Shakesperian Tragedy; creating a movie that cascades scene after depressive scene of unrelenting mental torment on the viewer.

The fact that the "heroine" is killed in the middle of the movie is such a betrayal to the senses....I also like the fact that even the killers cannot believe what scumbags they are.

I feel this movie was beautifully done.

Nothing about Hills Have Eyes Keeps the attention of the audience. The characters arent well developed nor is the plot. It's just a fucking pointless story lets throw a family in the desert and let a family kill them with their motor home being their shelter. WOW that's a mind blowing thrill ride, but it's been done before in a movie called night of the living dead with a house as the shelter and zombies smarter then the killers from the hills have eyes which are seeking to get in same fucking thing almost. This movie just seemed depressingly bad. a rip off of other horror films just all wrapped into one. Nothing about it is remotley exciting or suspensful like a horror movie should deliver it fails in all departments.

For the Last house on The Left nothing more to that than a rape plot. Rape and murder ok ya that's cool but what else ohhhh that's it. Movie is another pathetic shot. Craven never found his spot until A Nightmare On Elm St.

I agree with your assessment of H.H.E....but all the same I found it to be ok.

A sub-par T.C.M.....it still held my interest.

for L.H.o.T.L. I think youre way off base.....youre just focusing on the physical acts in the movie...there was a lot more going on underneath the surface.

the original Nightmare was probably a tie for #2 on my list....different Idea, but going by your logic, it was still a "stalker slasher" flick....matter of fact, its been touted as the "original"...but being a horror movie buff, Im sure you will agree that it certainly was not the first of its kind.

My opinion of Wes Craven in general is "meh...he is alright"....so make no mistake, these arent some of my favorite movies ever....Im just rating them as Craven movies, not horror movies in general.

the movie Last House On The Left was based off of.

I re-read your edited post....its kinda bizzare you point to Night of the Living Dead as a movie that H.H.E. rips off....Ill give you the point about isolation...but...other than that I just dont see it man....

The Last House On The Left in a way followed the same path as The hills have Eyes. In Terms of The characters and plot had nothing and the killers where not halfway interesting. On the Most part this movie would categorize as more of a shocker rather than a horror.

the best horror movies of all time are easily

The Shinning
The Excorist
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Psycho
Rosemary's Baby

I would agree with this list but these aren't my favorites and three of these movies I don't like. To each his own, Last House On the left is an accquired taste and might not only be on your list but a few others as the best.

I agree with this list, but I would also like to add the original 'When a Stranger Calls'.

I wasnt a fan of Rosemary's Baby or The Exorcist.

I found them both to be sort of boring....I understand why people like them, but it just wasnt my thing.

the other three are classics in my eyes.
