My Bloody Valentine (1981)
Twenty years ago in the sleepy mining town of Valentine Bluffs, a fatal mining disaster occurred on Valentine's Day while some of the crew was decorating for a party. The sole survivor of the accident killed the remaining crewmembers and warned the town not to celebrate Valentine's Day again. When a group of teenagers decides to defy that order, a murderous maniac in mining gear begins dispatching townsfolk in bloody and creative ways.
Lovers Lane (1999)
This Valentine's Day, Lovers Lane is haunted by the events that took place there 13 years ago, when a brutal killer took the lives of two young sweethearts. Now, the maniac has escaped from his institution, still sporting his original murder weapon -- the hook he wears replacing his hand -- and begins wreaking terror again until he has the whole town on the run. A frightening thriller with a surprise ending!
Valentine (2001)
Rejected on the dance floor and savagely beaten by his classmates, Jeremy swears to exact revenge on the five girls who ruined his life. But over the years, the girls have forgotten what happened to Jeremy and are looking forward to the upcoming Valentine's Day. Tough luck, because Jeremy has chosen February 14th to show the girls he's back -- with a few nasty surprises in store.
My Bloody Valentine (2009)
Haunted by the mining-related massacre that took place there on Valentine's Day a decade ago, Tom (Jensen Ackles) returns to his hometown to find some closure. But no sooner does he arrive than a pickax-wielding madman begins a new bloody killing spree. Now, many suspect that the murderous miner has returned to claim his final victims -- including Tom. Patrick Lussier directs this remake of the 1981 horror classic.

Carrie (1976)
Carrie (Sissy Spacek) is an ostracized girl saddled with a strict mother. But the teen has the ability to move objects with her mind, and when the high school "in crowd" torments her with a sick joke at the prom, she lashes out with devastating, deadly power. Director Brian De Palma deftly transfers Stephen King's first novel to the screen.
Candyman (1992)
While researching urban myths, grad student Helen Lyle (Virginia Madsen) learns about the Candyman (Tony Todd), a hook-handed creature who's said to haunt a Chicago housing project. In this creepy film based on a Clive Barker story, the Candyman is made flesh by other people's belief in him. Not surprisingly, Lyle manages to summon him. Soon, the Candyman has committed a series of murders, and the cops are holding Lyle responsible.
My Boyfriend's Back (1993)
Missy (Tracy Lind) is the most beautiful girl in school, and Johnny (Andrew Lowery) has been in love with her for years. One night, Johnny's killed trying to win her over, but he soon comes back from the dead (as the cutest zombie in movie history!) and finally wins Missy's heart. Missy sticks by her new boyfriend despite bullies' taunts, small-town prejudice ... and his recent craving for human flesh.
Carrie (2002)
This remake of Stephen King's chilling tale about high school misfit Carrie White (Angela Bettis), who finally seeks revenge on all the cool people who've bullied her over the years, is filled to the brim with twists, turns and macabre fun. As the teenaged Carrie develops physically into a woman, her telekinetic abilities blossom, giving her a measure of power she's never had before.
Zombie Honeymoon (2004)
Newlyweds Danny (Graham Sibley) and Denise (Tracy Coogan) find their honeymoon cut short when a hideous sea monster kills the recent bridegroom. But, desperately in love with his wife, Danny returns from the grave as a flesh-eating zombie. The couple soon learns that marriage is all about compromises, with Denise trying to adjust to life with an undead husband and Danny trying to control his ghoulish appetite. Until death do us part, indeed!
