wishmaster? freddy vs jason? ringu? WTF is wrong with you people? I liked those movies too, but BEST horror movies of all time? Come on....

TCM was a good mention, Halloween as well.......anyone ever seen that little film called The Exorcist? I dunno, maybe Night Of The Living Dead? Now if the question was what are YOUR FAVORITE horror films, thats different. My favorite films sometimes differ from what I consider to be the best horror films of all time.

*beep* Wishmaster?

American Psycho isn't horror, and it's actually a great movie. It has a few things to say about the '80's American yuppie culture of greed which seems lost on a few. American Psycho II, on the other hand, is pure Hollywood money-making trash.

Off the top of my head, they are probably something like this:

The Thing (the Kurt Russell remake)
Omen
Exorcist
Scream
The Fog

I'm not sure about the Fog being on there, and Omen covers parts 1-3. I consider them to be one big story. What about The Stand... is that considered Horror? If so, then it's definitely on there as well.

I loved The Thing. It's a study in paranoia.

[–] metencephalon 20 years ago

Yeah, The Thing is great. Not only is it a study in paranoia but on
how isolation affects people
My top-five in strict order

1 Dawn of the Dead
2 Hellraiser
3 The Thing
4 Candyman
5 Evil Dead II

Some things has to be endured...

Greatest Horror:
The Re-Animator
Night of The Living Dead
A nightmare on Elm Street
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre(Original)
HellRaiser
Friday The 13th..I don't care if I have six.
Six isn't enough.
And Alien???
That is a sci-fi, not horror.
It has ALOT of horror elements but not horror.
That is like saying a clockwork orange is a romance movie.

Only sorta.
