Seen this forum in the proboard support forums and as a massive horror fan had to join.
I'm 30 from the UK, and one of my favourite and first horror films that I watched with my dad was the original 1978 Halloween. Today I also love the fact that it is still effective yet simplistic - there's not really any blood. I don't have a problem with blood, gore etc. far from it, but find some films rely too much on it today.
My biggest influence however is probably Dario Argento, with Suspiria being one of my all time favourite horror films. I also love his Giallo films, and have started trying to watch as many Giallo films as possible and explore the genre. I'd seen a couple non Argento giallo films, but not many. Recently for example I have watched Mario Bava's Blood and Black Lace, which was interesting as you can see it influenced many people including Argento himself.
One thing I also plan to do is watch a load of the old horror films e.g. Universal as I've not seen any of those e.g. original Dracula, Frankenstein etc.
I also studied a degree in Film and TV Production although chose not to do anything with it really after graduating.
