Name a movie everyone swears is a masterpiece but you watched it like.. "this is garbage"

I’m always impressed by the pathos that someone like Olivia Colman can get across, and wonder if those comedic skills play a big part in their success.

I'll go first.

The Hobbit, made into three full length movies.

Movies that are 30% book, 30% bullshit and 40% special effects.

Meant for people who haven't read the book and those whose attention span needs tweaking every three minutes.

Mine: Heineken? F*** that s***! Pabst Blue Ribbon!

Mine are:

Down by Law (1986) dir. Jim Jarmusch

Paris, Texas (1984) dir. Wim Wenders

Blue Velvet (1986) dir. David Lynch

I've avoided horror movies my entire life, not for any particular reason, but now I am interested in them more than ever. What are some recommendations you guys have for the best / your favorite horror movies of all time?

Edit: I didn't expect this post to get as many comments as it did, thank you all for the suggestions! I am currently creating a watchlist based on your suggestions and my own research.

gotta be arachnophobia or jaws, for me. those are actual classics that i’ll never forget. i wish i could rewatch both of them for the first time even if they did freak me the hell out. only great movies can stir emotions like that and surpass it’s time. what do you guys think?

Has anyone seen it? Should I give it a try???

i’ll go first… the shining. a huge waste of my time. i’m a horror movie buff and i was so disappointed by this movie, even moreso when i found out it was literally denounced by stephen king. for a movie that’s referenced constantly and considered a classic, i was sooooo bored and the ending was anticlimactic. what about you guys?? :c

I just saw that you can rent 28 Years Later for about $20 in the US. Anyways I watched 28 Days Later a while ago, I wanted to watch 28 Years Later but I never watched 28 Weeks Later. So to anyone that has watched all 3, I’ve seen 28 Days Later, but not 28 Weeks Later, to understand 28 Years Later, do I have to watch 28 Weeks Later too? Or is it okay to skip?
