Thoughts? Anyone got their own 100 Favorite Horror Movies list?

[tsmooth31]

wow it would be tough for me to name my top 100...plus most would be low budget and im sure you wouldnt have heard of alot..but maybe ill try later

as for some of yours

the willies i remember watching that as a kid..i can remember the scene where the kid lifts his blanket and all the worms are under it..i used to rent that movie all the time

razorback is a movie i have always wanted to see..have they released it on dvd yet??

also good to see the blob up there...that better be on everyones top 100

[vincentprice]

I love The Willies, I saw it when I was like 9 at a friend's house and didn't see it again for years until I got a copy on VHS off Ebay...and it was maggots, not worms ;D

As for Razorback, no DVD release, I actually downloaded it.

And The Blob '88 is a classic, the kitching drain scene is friggin' classic.

[tsmooth31]

ahh yes maggots/ worms i knew it was something like that...been along time since i have seen it..

i guess i should try and DL razorbackk too...the idea of a killer pig is too good to pass up

and the blob has many classic scenes...just about every time the blob attacked was great


as for the ones i have seen on your list that i didnt like would be cabin fever which was just bad and boring to me and from a whisper to a scream...i was pretty dissapointed after watching that

Wow, where do I even try to begin with this, lol? I'll post mine eventually, but it won't be until I have enough time to sit down and really think it out.

[maycanady]

I totally want to make my list as well, but I have to work. I will definitely be back on later to do it though. ;D As for everyone else's lists....great stuff! ;D

I don't even have 100 listed. I think I only managed 98. It's very hard. A lot of good horror films, but... not so many I'd call my 'favorite's.

[Evil Dave]

^^ That's a good point, Laz. I was kind of thinking the same thing. There's maybe 25 - 30 at the most that I would call my "favorites." The rest would best be labelled as movies I found to be "enjoyable." I think that's probably how I'll break them down when and if I get around to making a list.

[tsmooth31]

laz..you said how much you loved the fair haired child..and that it may be better then even sick girl

so how do jenifer and ciggarette burns make it there yet fair haired child is left off???

[lazario]

Aha! Here is a lesson for you, T: My list is for movies I LIKE. Not movies that are GREAT.

I mean, did I need to say that to you? Do you remember one thing I say and forget everything else? And... can you not see how many stinky movies are on that list?

It's a Favorites List. Not a Greatest List. You see how cleverly I titled it: Favorite Horror Movies. Not Greatest Horror Movies.

Wow... mind-blowing, right.

You'll also notice that Squirm didn't make the list either. That's because it's not a favorite movie. Just a good movie. I don't need to "like" a movie for it to be good. Or hate it for it to be bad.

See- I have the Brain to separate movies I like from movies that are good. Just like I've always said.

[tsmooth31]

well fav and great is the same to me

if i watch a movie and its great then clearly its one of my favs

[lazario]

Then, you have no personality. ;D

[tsmooth31]

well i think i can speak for most people when i say that if they saw a movie that was great..it would crack there top 100

[lazario]

How many Great movies have You seen?

[tsmooth31]

well i dont have 2 catergories like you

i have seen alot of low budget movies that were great to me

were they made great overall?? no

the way i see it is i either like a movie or i dont..i guess my fav movies like the blob and stuff i would call great

[Evil Dave]

It's all about one's own personal interpretation of what factors make a "great" film to them. No surprise then that it should vary from person to person.

[maycanady]

I tried to make a list and only came up with about 65 films.

[Evil Dave]

^^^ That's alright, Miss May, just post whatcha' got. I don't think anybody's really counting anyways. Well, maybe Laz.................... But seriously, we'd all like to see you picks!

[tsmooth31]
