TOP FIVE: HORROR MOVIES
1. THE SHINING (1980)
A classic, and for a good reason.
This wins in terms of style, suspense and horror. Every shot looks like a
beautifully macabre photograph.
2. TALES FROM THE CRYPT (1972)
I love a horror anthology, the
British do it best, in my opinion. This one has some classic stories. The thing
I love most about these stories are the fact that the bad guys always get their
comeuppance. Other great horror anthologies include (because I couldn’t include
them all… The Vault of Horror (1973), Asylum (1972), From Beyond the Grave(1974), and of course the more modern Creepshow (1982)
and Tales from the Darkside: The Movie (1990)
3. THE BAD SEED (1956)
There’s nothing scarier than a
‘cute’ psychopathic little girl.
4. THE POUGHKEEPSIE TAPES (2007)
A whole set of video tapes are
found in an abandoned house showing what appears to be the life’s work of a
truly horrific serial killer. The mockumentary style just makes the whole thing scarier because
you can image what you’re seeing is real.
5. SLEEPAWAY CAMP (1983)
This almost falls into the so bad
it’s good category, The twist makes it even better.
