It's trash but it's the 90iest horror movie and should have been in your poll.

Flopic.

It's better to say mid 90s to early 2000s

That's where you get most of your teen angsty horror movies

Valentine's Day
I Know What You Did Last Summer
Urban Legend

Idle Hand?

This is a very good answer. Anything with Seth Green instantly feels super '90s and nu metal.

Scream.

TC just has terrible opinions and it made one hell of an impact on the genre.

Name the impact. People say that Scream "turned things around," but 1997-2013 was easily one of the worst times for American horror. The best stuff going on post-Scream and pre-2010's was all French -- and could barely, if at all, be attributed to Scream.
Scream "gave us" garbage like I Know What You Did Last Summer, Urban Legends, Swim Fan, etc. Even the "self referential, post-modern satire" thing didn't spawn much of anything good -- aside from Dave and Tucker vs. Evil, stuff like the Scary Movie series, Leslie Vernon, and Cabin in the Woods are all forgettable at best. Man Bites Dog and Funny Games were infinitely better at what Scream set out to do, and the former came before Scream.

Return of the Living Dead 3, Carrie 2, and Tromeo and Juliet are essential for this topic. The only way you'd say otherwise is if you haven't seen them. Carrie 2 literally has people wearing Jncos in it.

I'd also not lump Candyman as angsty, nu metalish '90s horror. Candyman is a fantastic film, and its commentary on poverty and urban myth are timeless. It doesn't have a soundtrack or an aesthetic that fits what I'm describing.
Leprechaun maybe slightly, because it being Jennifer Anniston's first film -- and she's definitely very '90s.
Wishmaster sliiightly I guess -- it has the aesthetic somewhat, but it feels more in line with stuff like Yuzna, Hennenlotter, and other Charles Band stuff. Like horror comedies with elaborate prosthetics and practical effects. That's more like late '80s/early '90s to me and doesn't have that angsty gen x vibe to it.

Ohhh I see. So what youre really saying ITT is your definition of 90sest only extends to the white 90s experience.

valid point - although I did point out that I meant corny nu-metally, angsty gen-x stuff. Even if hip hop culture was created as a means to establish a black American counterculture - we're not going to sit here and pretend that other countercultures weren't at least inclusive. The dumbass nu-metal stuff still had black/POC members in well known bands, like orange 9mm and Sevendust. I'd also say that even though they were more EDM'y -- nothing exemplifies that time period as well as Prodigy.
There were plenty of POC who had tribal tattoos, wore Jncos and colored contacts, skateboarded, etc.

Candyman also places very little narrative focus on any of the characters aside from its lead. I feel like its strongest theme was the nature of urban myth, wanting to be memorialized in history, etc. -- which is why I'm optimistic for the remake that's supposedly going to place more of its focus on the racial tensions.
I also don't feel like it feels distinctly '90s? If anything I'd say Tales from the Hood does a much better job on all of those accounts.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm backpedaling.

Its Scream and its not even close.

Funny story about Disturbing Behavior. I was part of an exchange program in 2005 in South Africa. I was spending 6 weeks in South Africa as a asset protection and research team on the Mala Mala game reserve. So I land in Johannesburg, drive for a few hours and hop on a train, the blue train, very nice. It was gonna be a 16 hour train ride. Shared a room with this beautiful woman from Melbourne on the same program. Something went wrong with the tv system and for 16 hours the only thing to watch was Disturbing Behavior. Thankfully the train had a library
