You have excellent taste Blacknumber1. My list would be quite similar; I love J-Horror as well. Cool that you included The Elephant Man. These are the kinds of films I was trying to illicit-not quite horror but creepy as hell.

 Captain Spalding rules- every Rob Zombie movie rocks- even Lords of Salem. I hear he has a new one coming out, can't wait

 I am going to check out The Poukeepsie tapes and Begotten.

I'd love to get into a more detailed discussion on certain films if you're ever up for it. For instance the Museum of Modern Art has Texas Chainsaw as part of their permanant exhibition. What is it about this film that makes it so powerful that it transcends the horror genre and is actually considered art? Maybe I should post that as a blog- hmmm, maybe I will.

Thanks for the list
