This one caught my eye. My favorite I've seen recently is Stay Alive... though the guy who commented at imdb apparently disagrees. Wow.
I generally avoid horror films. Most of 'em these days are just about the gore. Oddly enough, the fact that the deaths were off screen in Stay Alive made me enjoy the movie more than if I'd been shown buckets of blood and severed limbs. It had some really scary moments, but the ending wasn't the usual 'everybody dies except for sequel girl' that most horror movies do. I guess it's one of my favorites because it's not like all the others.
For the record, I've never seen The Evil Dead, and only seen part of Army of Darkness.
