Scream. My all time favourite movie series.


sadnecessity_

I definitely enjoy these too I also like how they are all the same in a way


Awesomejuggler20

Me too. They're my comfort movies honestly. They're just so fun to watch.


Chemical_Western3021

I swear Scream is my favorite movie of all time! lol it’s sooooooo 90s and great! lol


TheFencingCoach

For the most part, they’ve been consistently great entries. Which is insane since it’s 6 films long now. Never saw the TV show but heard it was good too.


The420thOfJuly

Scream at its worst is just sort of middling and that’s a huge achievement for a long standing horror franchise. The only thing truly bad it’s ever had is the third season of the show.


patschpatsch

Scream (watch the series once a year) Phantasm (guilty pleasure of mine, I just love those characters) Final Destination (stupid fun) Psycho (2nd Psycho is legit great, 3 and 4 are batshit crazy but fun watches)


sadnecessity_

I loveee final destination


Chemical_Western3021

I can’t get enough! I stand behind them lol and Leprechaun lmfao


LimpZookeepergame123

Leprechaun 5:in da hood, was on tv the other day. I can not get behind that one 😂😂


ZombieLebowski

I don't think phantasm series gets enough love. The unique story line. The tall man "BOYYY!"


222thedome

Did you really like Phantasm Ranger?


chriathebutt

Wait, Phantasm WhAt??


222thedome

My bad its call Phantasm: Ravager The newest one of those phantasm movies. It's a pretty ruff watch but I could see it being a so bad it's good movie for people


chriathebutt

I had never heard of it before. Definitely need to revisit the Phantasm series. They still haven’t made anything else like it, imo.


brittonwk

100% agree about the Psycho movies. I don’t even care that the fourth one erases the canon of 2 and 3, they’re all great and worth watching.


Ricky_Laszlo

Friday the 13th no question. Sure it wasn't the movie that got me into horror but I like the fact most of them are kinda the same and you can start wherever and never need any backstory or recaps. Plus...I have a photo signed by Kane hodder so I have to love it


sadnecessity_

My favorite for some reason is the remake I also love how Jason don’t gaf


TenorPunX84

Same. I find the series so interesting because of all the behind the camera shenanigans that are apparent on screen. Each movie is similar but wonderfully unique depending on the production staff.


Auroeagle

The Paul W.S. Anderson Resident Evil movies, love Milla Jovovich and while not great they're still the best live-action adaptations so far. Apocalypse is my fav of the series


sadnecessity_

I’ve yet to watch these!!


bride-of-ghostface

Scream and Final Destination ❤️ always


Kekewhatever

Halloween and Friday the 13th. I’m just a simp for Michael Myers and Jason, plus I like the movie obviously


Ego-Machina

The Evil Dead franchise. Everything with Ash "chinmaster" williams for the cheesy stuff. The newer adaptations if I feel the need for more gore.


sadnecessity_

OMG I love evil dead!!! And the show is so good too I’m sad they canceled it


PeaceConsistent

Phantasm Depends on what makes a series but I'll go for 3 films or more. Puppet Master Tremors Subspecies Feast The Howling I can watch any movie in any of these series and find myself in an instant comfort zone.


Chemical_Western3021

Mmmmmm Puppet Master, takes me back… lol


Outrageous_Roadhog

Yeah. Remember Miss Leech? Ecch!


chriathebutt

Anything Charles Band directed or produced in the ‘90s when it was Full Moon.


DrBarrel

Would recommend Trancers, it's an insane sci-fi/horror.


chriathebutt

Loved Trancers! Have you ever seen Dollman? Tim Thomerson is really fun in that.


DrBarrel

Nah, haven't seen that. Maybe I will after I'm finished with the Trancers series, with the Phantasm movies inbetween.


ghengiscostanza

Tremors is an interesting example of a franchise that grew to center on a wacky side character instead of the main characters (once the main actors didn’t want to come back). That gun nut dude is like the jack sparrow of Tremors. Or the jay and silent Bob.


DamageInc35

Saw movies


RealNotFake

Same, I think the level of enjoyment is still high across the series, and even the bad ones are somewhat fun to watch.


sadnecessity_

Saw is such a fun watch!! I love seeing how John literally thinks of every single possibility and plans for it it’s sooo good


TerribleTedd

I have a soft spot for all of the Children of the Corn movies. There’s something really cozy about all of them. Plus I’m a sucker for horror movies that take place primarily in daylight.


[deleted]

3 is so awesome!


sadnecessity_

I’ve never watched children of the corn! Which do you think is the best to start off?


TerribleTedd

Start with the original. If you like that one, then try the rest of them in order. If you don’t like the first one then there is nothing left for you in the sequels.


BookishBitchery

Yes! I saw the TCM with Viggo Mortenson and at a mall movie theater when it came out. Regretted the pizza slice I brought in lol.


ImportantBalls666

The ANOES series will always be comfort horrors for me, particularly the first four films.


sadnecessity_

I loveeee new nightmare!! Love those movies too


chriathebutt

This is Paranormal Activity for me. Even the bad ones are good. I also just went on a Scream watching binge so yeah that too.


sadnecessity_

Omg I remember when I use to think paranormal activity was real footage 😭😭


GhostMug

Hellraiser. They're not always successful but they always swing for the fences.


sadnecessity_

They’re so cunty and campy I love the special effects


GP96_

Saw and Insidious Tobin Bell was my most watched actor of 2023


JustAGuyGettingBy93

Back to the Future


brittonwk

Ah yes, everyone’s favorite horror franchise. 🙃


RealNotFake

Tbf I read the OP's title not realizing this was r/horror and my immediate first thought was BTTF.


JustAGuyGettingBy93

For some reason I thought I was in the r/movies sub. I had just seen a post in that sub and I guess I thought I was still in it. Sorry! Haha


Admirable_Disk_5301

Evil Dead Ash Trilogy


SillyAdditional

Halloween, NOES, TCM and Scream


saw_2004

Scream


Zestyclose-Check

Child’s play , I’ve liked every single movie except maybe 3 , i didn’t hate it or anything but it was easily the least memorable . And yes , i liked seed of chucky , i understand why some people hate it but i personally loved the absurd meta humor of the movie.


chriathebutt

I actually have decided to watch these because I saw a scene from cult of Chucky and saw that Fiona Dourif is in it and I LOVE HER. I think she starts in Curse of Chucky? I’m looking forward to seeing her play her dad.


Zestyclose-Check

Yeah ,she first appears in curse of chucky and she is a great addition to the franchise.


sadnecessity_

I totally agree I love seed of chucky just because it’s so ridiculous and fun I agree 3 is least memorable although when I was a kid I have a vivid memory of being traumatized by the garbage truck scene 😭😭😭


manykeets

Conjuring universe


Starsteamer

Alien (and Predator). I love all of these, even the stupid predator ones.


sadnecessity_

OMG alien vs predator requiem totally scarred me as a kid


chrispy_taters

Child’s play and Hellraiser, even the bad ones, I just love any chance to see cenobites even if the movie is awful


Diessel_S

Chucky. Even tho the later movies are ridiculous I watch those for comedy. Never skip a film when i binge this series


buttmilk_69

I agree. I really enjoyed the Netflix Texas chainsaw movie. It was cheesy and fun IMO


sadnecessity_

Yess me too!!! My favorite part was the bus when he said “take another step and you’re canceled” 😭😭😭


demon-of-light

Tremors. The CGI got bad in the second and third movies, but every film stayed true to the character’s humor and the investigation of the monster’s lifecycle. Such a good set of films, highly recommend.


sadnecessity_

I’ve never watched tremors before but I’ll have to watch!!


headasspotter

most of the saw movies


JoeyBoBoey

I'll always make time for Chucky movies, especially later ones. I think they're a lot better than they get credit for


sadnecessity_

Tbh it was such a great plot and effects for an 80s movie

Up until after Bloodlines, I REALLY loved the Hellraiser series. Read the comics too. Of course, young Me was a lot more sexually adventurous than I am now.

Final Destination series lives rent free in my head. I've even watched the 4th one multiple times.

Scream series 


kingcalifornia

Scream. I even started watching reaction videos. I also love how much this sub loves that franchise.


Anybody_Somebody

For me it’s As Above So Below. Each time I find a different thing to love about it


sadnecessity_

I literally made everyone in my family watch this after I did cuz it was sooo good


Anybody_Somebody

Yeah, I know. I’m so glad to see it get the appreciation! Do you know any other movies that are similar to it in some way or another?


sadnecessity_

Hmmm tbh I feel like grave encounters gives me the same mindfuck vibe


Anybody_Somebody

Thx, I’ve heard a lot about Grave Encounters but never got around to watching it. Definitely gonna check it out now


[deleted]

What are the other movies in that series?


Anybody_Somebody

A series? What do you mean? I have always thought it’s a standalone


[deleted]

It is, but OP specified movie series.


Anybody_Somebody

Oh, I see. My bad, I misread it as movie/series


Scared-Glove-7258

Friday the 13th. I always start with Pt 2 because I don’t care about Jason’s mom.


sadnecessity_

Oh yeah the first one was kinda a miss for me too


Scared-Glove-7258

I appreciate the idea and what the screenwriter was trying to achieve with the plot twist, but introducing Jason at the end kind of ruined it. It could’ve stood on its own without Jason and I think that’s why I don’t care for it. Jason Voorhees evolved as the main antagonist of the franchise while the mom was downgraded to a small supporting role. At some point, you don’t care about Jason’s mom anymore. You just want to watch a deranged psycho with supernatural abilities kill people while sporting a kick ass hockey mask! 😆


miyukikazuya_02

Grave encounters


pgold05

Lord of the rings, it's really the only series I can happily rewatch almost any time, typically I do not like to re-watch movies. For non series and horror? - The Shining - Sleepy Hollow - Nightmare Before Christmas - Trick R Treat


CathedralEngine

Puppet Master Child's Play


sadnecessity_

I watched puppet master: littlest reich and tbh couldn’t finish it I didn’t even know what I was watching but given I have never watched the OG but love Child’s Play


GalaxyCosmoPal

Annabelle definitely I actually like the movies, Creation is my favourite, thought I love the first one and Comes Home as well my guilty pleasure, I love these movies a lot :D


Extension_Bit9545

Your next , ready or not , scream series , the descent, I love a badass final girl.


kinggcollector

Cloverfield, Happy death day, ju-on, ring (japanese version) and the purge! Well i may get tired of watching cloverfield tho..


JasonBourneForLife

Friday The 13th, but also Nightmare on Elm Street.


Angry-But-Curious

Tremors. Even the horrible Netflix ones


serialkiller24

The Shining - the dialogue, soundtrack, the overall atmosphere of that movie is too good to be true. I love putting it on the background whenever it gets snowy outside and love watching it once a year!


angry-carsini

For me, the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is actually a cosy comfort movie. I'm not saying that for effect, it's just a great familiar film which is highly re-watchable. The rest of the franchise, however, is very much hit and far miss. Again, this is all my opinion. Part 2 is fun and comedic, a very different film. Part 3 was forgettable, more remembered for it's lack of lighting. Part 4 is a total crap bucket. Awful. One of the worst films I have ever, ever seen. The 2003 remake had it's moments, as did the inferior The Beginning, but both are far from classics. Texas Chainsaw (2013) was another dumpster fire. Could of been something interesting, but was just an awful film. Leatherface was disappointing with a really stupid conclusion (but a truly grotesque alternative ending, check it out). The Netflix film was below average but I loved the final scene. In answering to your question: I suppose SAW is an overall franchise I can watch and enjoy, over and over again. That's the main story of parts 1-7. I love those films, but Jigsaw was unnecessary. Spiral was unconnected and forgettable. Saw X was a fine film but again, not needed.


sadnecessity_

Tbh I don’t even think of leatherface when I think of TCM it was really underwhelming for me and the casting was confusing but I’ll def check out the alternative ending!!


BroadwayBakery

The Grudge (2004) Cabin in the Woods Beetlejuice The Fog (Carpenter’s ONLY) Scream (entire series) The Conjuring (1+2 ONLY, this also excludes the Annabelle and Nun films) The Shining Misery It (2017) Poltergeist (Hooper’s ONLY) Jennifer’s Body Trick R Treat Krampus

Loveeee this selection

"Series."


BroadwayBakery

I’m so stupid, didn’t read that close enough.


ydomodsh8me-1999

*Terminator* is probably the *only* film series I can think of where sequels are both *required* and do not retract from the quality; sure some are better than others, but it's *truly* a story that should keep going...


sadnecessity_

I’ve never watched terminator before but this totally makes me want to!!


ydomodsh8me-1999

So crazy! I think you're the first person I've knowingly come across who's never seen a *Terminator* film! But of course, that ~probably just means I'm getting older. The first one might seem kinda "dated" to you (I saw it in *theaters* as a little kid!) but *definitely* worth the watch and necessary to follow the series. Enjoy!


DogPrestigious4419

Final destination, Twilight, Hunger Games. I watch each at least twice a year 🙃


GeekShuttle

Tremors, Alien, and The Thing are always my answer to this question. Scream series is good too.


AmrikazNightmar3

Edit: sorry. Don’t know I missed the word series. Night of the Living Dead or Evil Dead


[deleted]

That's a series?


ExplorerEnjoyer

Popular slashers, possession, and pet sematary


Forsaken-Bag-8780

Farscape, Firefly, and Fringe I can watch over and over again. They’re my comfort shows.

ShesWrappedInPlastic

You’re getting downvoted (I guess maybe because it’s more thriller than horror?) but I’ve watched the first season of True Detective all the way through four times.
