holy shit.

exorcist is the most over rated turd in the history of the horror genre.......it's more likely to put you to sleep than scare you.

you didn't mention which Hills Have Eyes. Based on your selections, I'll assume you're 13 or 14 and mean the remake that came out last year......not the much better original.

Is fredy? supposed to be some sort of shorthand for A Nightmare on Elm St.?

Land of the Dead (which was pretty meh to begin with) is better than Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead? You ate too many paint chips as a child.

Freddy vs Jason and Jason X both make your list? I'm beginning to think you've only seen the movies you have listed.

god I hope this is a regular member just taking the piss out of everyone........

my List: 1) Texas chainsaw massacre 2003 (Stop shouting at me, i just love this movie, everybody has a guilty pleasure)

2) Day of the dead.

3) Evil dead.
4) Dracula
5) The thing (1981)

I found the remake of The Hills Have Eyes to be far more superior to the boring original in everyway, except for Michael Berryman who was missed in the remake.

But yeah, having Land of the Dead in your top films, yet none of the original trilogy...

My favorites, currently are...

- The exorcist
- wrong turn
- scream
- texas chainsaw massacre
The thing to me wasnt an horror movie.

I don't see how it's not, unless you're just basing the "wasn't an horror movie" on the whole fact that there is an alien in it.

But anyways for me:

The Thing
28 Days Later
Dawn of the Dead (Orig.)
The Descent
The Evil Dead

Aliens dont really make a movie an actual horror. Proper horrors are more gory, frighteneing in themself, like wrong turn.

It is more like a thriller.

Many people rate such a good films as being excellent, but theyre not actual horrors. Proper horrors are the ones like Halloween.
The thing is sci fi.

None of those were even scary and the Descent was definitely not a real horror movie.
I expected that to be a really good thriller!

I believe you are confusing horror films with slasher films.

slasher is merely one sub-genre. By your definition, the very beginnings of the horror film industry such as The Mummy, Wolfman, Nosferatu, Frankenstein, etc. are not horror films...........

throwing my 2 cents in.......slasher films are the lowest form of horror films. While I loathe the Exorcist and think it's an over rated turd.....at least some thought was put into the story and characters......not just generic mask guy killing people with generic sharp instrument.

Horror films don't just have to be gory soin2cal... and of course The Descent was a horror film. Can get some excellent horror films without gore.

I rarely get scared by horror movies but:

The Thing - horror because of the isolation factor, no one could trust anyone and no one knew who was a "Thing" and who wasn't.

28 Days Later - you're telling me the idea that you wake up alone, have no idea what the hell is going on and find out that a deadly virus has been spread which ultimately may lead to the end of mankind isn't scary on a psychological level?

Dawn of the Dead - like 28 Days Later, the idea that you are powerless to stop something and have to hide everyday just to survive.

The Descent - How was this not scary? Imagine being trapped underground with no way out, that is scary enough, throw in some monsters that may or may not be real depending on how you viewed the film. That makes an excellent horror movie.

The Evil Dead - Granted it's more comedy then horror, it's still one of the famous Independent horror films ever created.

I agree with Evil Dead in the fact that you think only "slasher films" are true horror. I also agree that I will take a crapfest like "The Exorcist" over a slasher film anyday.

Jason movies weren't Scary

I guess I'll actually answer the question now........

my favorites in no particular order:

A Nightmare on Elm St.
Jaws
Hellraiser
The Amityville Horror (og)
Re-Animator
The Omen (og)
The Shining
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (og)
The Ugly
Henry : Portrait of a Serial Killer
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Alien
The Evil Dead

honorable mentions to Feast which came out last year........it's so stylistic and cheesy that it's great. Nowhere on par with the others on my list but it's great camp entertainment.

The Evil dead 1,2 and 3
House of wax (remake)
The hills have eyes (remake)
Dawn of the dead
Alien
Aliens
TCM (remake)

1) The Shining (Wow!!)

2) Psycho (Classic, baby!)

3) From dusk till dawn (Quentin Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez. Need I say more?)

4) Jason 4 (Jason is my favorite slasher. Beside, he's like Wolverine: He is the best at what he does. And what he does? He's killing allot of stupid teenagers! :P)

5) Nightmare on Elm Street 3 (My favorite of the "Freddy Franchise". The story is marvelous, but the killer isn't not good like the "Big J".

Special honor: Cube (One of the weirdest horror movie I seen. Really 'zard, but I suggest it to you.)

Murder set pieces

The Burning

Hellraiser

Candyman

Friday the 13th
