Let's head back to the early days of horror, specifically the early 1930s when there was very little censorship or control. By mid-1934, The Hays Code laid down the rules for what can and can't be shown in motion pictures, so lets look at some of these more daring and risky horror features from that less compliant era!

You watch these movies thinking it will be tame because of how old it is but when the violent stuff happens and it just catches you off guard, it just makes them more terrifying!
@geoffreyrichards6079
@geoffreyrichards6079 4 месяца назад
If by “lame” you mean “restrained”, because there’s still a lot to admire about these older films despite the obvious censorship. From the performances to the cinematography to the music and everything else. If the violence and gore are all that really matters, then what separates them from the average dreck we see in today’s horror films?

This list was much appreciated and added to my watch list some convincing pieces of cinema previously unknown to me. The ones I have already seen have without exception been pleasant surprises as well - while not able to reach the levels of jump scare in more modern films of the genre, these oldies often managed to create a disturbing atmosphere, something being "not right". And that, I believe, is wherein true horror lies
