My two favorites of all time will always be Evil Dead 2 and Return Of The Living Dead. I like some camp and fun mixed into my horror. That said, my favorite horror movie in recent times is Zombieland.

Every great Zombie flick (Romero movies, Resident evil, and most recently, the walking dead series)

Creepy.

My wife and i saw the first episode of The Walking Dead last sunday night. Amazing.

I was never a classic horror film guru...I grew up with the slasher movies of the 80's. I was always lucky enough to have friends who had all the movie channels (H.B.O., Showtime, The Movie Channel and Skinemax), whether they actually paid for that service, well that's a whole other story.

Anyways, I appreciated those earliest days in the 80's, because it seemed like most of the heroines had that girl next door type of image. As that genre progressed I stopped recognizing those girls, and gradually my interest started to diminish. It certainly didn't help that copy cat versions of famous franchises were being ripped off, and scripts got dumbed down, and the heroines I.Q was certainly in question...

Anyways, my list

1. Friday The 13th Part 2 (Amy Steel my favorite of all time and favorite location shoot)
2. Halloween (Jamie Lee Curtis my second favorite of all time)
3. Friday the 13th Part 4 (last interesting in this series in my opinion)
4. Friday the !3th (redefined Betsy Palmer's career)
5. April Fools Day (another movie with Amy Steel)
6. Jaws (Yes, this is a horror movie, and the plausibility of getting eaten by a shark is more likely than being hunted down by a guy with a William Shatner mask or a goalies mask)
7. Wait Until Dark (So there is one classic horror movie in my list. Love Audrey Hepburn!)
8. Seven (This was the one movie where I walked out of after it was over, and said, there are many roaming around the world like that of Kevin Spacey, and how long before someone actually plays this script out in real life?)
9. Halloween VI ( Probably the latest installment of any franchise that I truly liked...Last Donald Pleasance movie, and generally freaky, with two radically different endings (with one that has barely seen the light of day)
10. 28 Days Later (A zombie movie never really scared me, because I've always been fast my whole life...until I saw this movie. Zombies officially scared me!)

The Exorcist (forever No.1)

Mine are as follows:

Equinox
The Deadly Spawn
Bad Taste
Dead Alive
Suspiria
Phenomena
Demons
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
Dawn of the Dead (1978)
Day of the Dead (1986)
The Last Man on Earth
Cat People (Both Old Ones with Simone Simon)
Night of the Demon (1958)
Evil Dead (I & II)
The Thing from Another World
Uzumaki
Black Sunday

I'll stop there, because most of what I watch is horror, so I'll never be able to list them all.

Halloween (The original is a masterpiece, 2,4,5, and 6, all rock)
Wrong Turn
Phantasm
The Evil Dead
Event Horizon (Still freaks me out to this day)
Friday the 13th part VI
Resident Evil
Terminator (horror to me)

and wow so many more to list.....

Event Horizon definitely had a creepy ambiance to it.

The exorcist! Creepy.
