Alien vs Predator was so much fun. I absolutely loved the part when the Alien jumped onto the Predator for the first time. That was really cool. The ending was pretty great too (SPOILER ALERT, SPOILER ALERT - Please turn away if you have not seen it yet)

I will put it down a few spaces so your eyes won't look at it too fast if you don't want to see what happens in the end:

Anyway, I was hoping that Italian Archeologist would have lived too (I wanted a semi happy ending) but when that whole huge ship materialized right in front of her (that would be the time I would have crapped my pants if I was her) but anyway, it was very action packed and it's one of those movies I can watch over and over again and not get tired of it.

divinemsjunebug:

One of my favorite horror action movies has to be Resident Evil 1 & 2, but after seeing the Descent, that is pretty high up there on my list now too. Let's see, I think Aliens would rank as an action movie as well as Predator, I also loved Alien vs Predator. I don't think Freddy vs. Jason would be considered that much of an action movie but it comes kind of close. I tell you the car chase scenes in Jeepers Creepers were really heart pounding (but I really don't think I would call that an action movie either...but there was quite a bit in it). What are some other action movies that scared you?

I have not yet seen "The Descent" , but I am intending to! Yes, June! I think that ALL of the movies you listed count as 'Horror/Action'! I call them 'Action/Adventure/Horror' so that I might fit a few more films under that 'umbrella'! Movies like "Jurassic Park" and "Deliverance" and "The League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen" ( bet you did not think I could spell that, huh ROBERT? ... Twice, even! ...)

I only JUST saw "Alien vs Predator" and I LOVED it! I liked this one BETTER than "Freddy vs Jason"!

For a good dose of 'Action/Adventure/Horror' try Sam Raimi's FIRST movie (!) ... "Thou Shalt Not Kill... Except"

I have to say that I loved Spielbergs Jurassic Park when it first came out. I watched it six times in the movie theater.... and for some reason I always came out starving and craving red meat--- I swear not even a j/k

How about one you just named in the CinLit forum? Jurassic Park.

Underworld is basically an action movie with a lot of the traditional horror monster characters and lore updated for an urban action style.
