Halloween (1978)

John Carpenter

The slasher film that started it all. Inspired by the works of the late-great Alfred Hitchcock, John Carpenter manages to scare the audience without the overuse of gore or pop-up scares. No, he gets...

The Exorcist (1973)

William Friedkin

A good movie that still manages to scare. With excellent directing and sweet effects, this movie is a MUST for any horror fan.


9.08
The Evil Dead (1981)

Sam Raimi

The darker film of the three and possibly also the scariest. A good movie that every horror fan must view at least once in their lifetime.


8.87805
Hellraiser (1987)

Clive Barker

A horror classic that every fan of the genre should see. Definitely recommended.


8.85714
Battle Royale (2000)

Kinji Fukasaku

This is one of the best films I've ever seen and ranks high in my favorite films of all time. It's very innovative, controversial, and highly entertaining. You have got to see this.


8.77778
The Hills Have Eyes (2006)

Alexandre Aja

This is a surprisingly good movie. There's a nice blend of gore and violence to please any horror fan. Although I liked the original, this definitely surpassed it in many ways.


8.77778
Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn (1987)

Sam Raimi

A brainless fun ride from start to finish. Another MUST if you're a horror fan.


8.57143
Trick 'r Treat (2008)

Michael Dougherty

Trick 'r Treat is a unique little horror anthology that sucks in its viewers and doesn't let go. The stories are entertaining, the characters are interesting, and it delivers the perfect...


8.52174
Zombieland (2009)

Ruben Fleischer

Zombieland is to horror comedies as Amber Heard is to horny teenage boys who watch horror comedies. A Godsend.


8.51515
Orphan (2009)

Jaume Collet-Serra

This is one of those rare occasions where a known sub-genre is taken to new heights by a clever script and talented director. Orphan doesn't skimp on the blood and even offers some fairly...


8.5
Dawn of the Dead (1978)

George A. Romero

Personally my favorite of the Romero zombie flicks. With all the zombie entertainment, gore, and goblin music in the background, you can't really go wrong.


8.42857
An American Werewolf in London (1981)

John Landis

Good story; good humor; sweet gore; werewolf running amok in the crowded streets of London; what more could you want? Definitely worth a check if you haven't seen it already.


8.41667
Death Note: The Last Name (2006)

Shusuke Kaneko

Equally as good as the first film, and offers new twists and ideas that weren't touched on before. Check this out!


8.4
30 Days of Night (2007)

David Slade

The film successfully re-invents the sub-genre and delivers a group of vampires more fearsome and brutal than ever before. Filled with lots of violence, blood, and badass characters, the movie will...


8.33333
Basket Case (1982)

Frank Henenlotter

Good cult-classic horror film. Lot of weird stuff going on. Cheap ass graphics that are fun to laugh it. Check this film out.


8.33333
Dawn of the Dead (2004)

Zack Snyder

In terms of a remake, the original is still better, but in terms of a movie on its own, it holds up and delivers. It's a solid zombie flick and that's all that it is. It's not much for...


8.25
Dead Snow (2009)

Tommy Wirkola

A film with a lot of lost potential. Strip away the snow setting and Nazi zombies and you're given a pretty standard zombie flick. Although branded a horror comedy, there's actually very...


8.2
Army of Darkness (1993)

Sam Raimi

If you enjoyed the previous two films then you'll defintely enjoy this one.


8.07143
Sorority Row (2009)

Stewart Hendler

Sorority Row is exactly what you expect it to be; A typical slasher film that plays by the rules. Only this time it’s well acted, thanks to all the lovely leading ladies, with believable dialogue...


8
The Wolfman (2010)

Joe Johnston

Wolfman is an entertaining flick that delivers the goods in certain areas, while falling short in others. Whether you like the movie in the end will likely be determined on how you approached it from...


8
Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Edgar Wright

A successfully funny UK zombie comedy. Filled with good zombie action, gore, and funny scenes, this is definitely worth a watch.


8
Night of the Creeps (1986)

Fred Dekker

Made by a horror fan for horror fans, Night of the Creeps is a fun, scary, and most importantly, entertaining mid-80s horror movie that is in desperate need of a DVD release before it disappears into...

Saw II (2005)

Darren Lynn Bousman

A solid sequel to an interesting first film. Offers more for the audience to ponder about and reveals new twists and turns as time goes on. Prepare to squirm in your seat with this one. Highly...

The Eye (2002)

Oxide Pang, Danny...

Now one of my favorite movies. Good scares; freaky ghosts.


7.83333
Creepshow 2 (1987)

Michael Gornick

This is one of the best films that deals with stories, in my opinion. Each of the three stories is creepy in its own way and it's a lot better than the first movie. I highly recommend this film...


7.83333
Final Destination (2000)

James Wong

So, basically this is a pretty good movie and you'll get your money's worth. I recommend this film to everyone.


7.8
Cloverfield (2008)

Matt Reeves

A good and original take on the old giant-monster sub-genre. Although I wasn't a big fan of the first 20-or-so minutes, due to the boring character development and nauseating camera work, all...


7.8
[Rec] (2007)

Jaume Balagueró,...

Although the movie is good, many of its scenes suffer from being either too dark, out of focus, or just damn shaky, so a lot of potentially scary scenes are lost. Even though this is one of the worst...


7.77778
Underworld: Evolution (2006)

Len Wiseman

A good sequel to the entertaining first film. Loaded with blood, gore, and even a little sexin' from Kate, this film should please fans of the first movie and maybe even make some new followers...


7.75
The Orphanage (2007)

Juan Antonio Bayona

The film's storytelling and atmosphere effectively brings back the once forgotten haunted house tale. Although the storyline was somewhat predictable, the delivery was still pulled off well....


7.75
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)

Robert Rodriguez

Badass characters, lots of gore, Salma Hayek, and with a combination of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino makes for a very fun and entertaining vampire romp. Any fan of the genre should check...


7.75
The Collector (2009)

Marcus Dunstan

The Collector was a bit of a mixed bag for me; I didn’t hate it by any means but I didn’t fully enjoy the experience. However for a movie to attempt to scare the audience again and to partially...


7.7
Final Destination 2 (2003)

David R. Ellis

If you're a fan of the original then you'll probably enjoy this sequel. I know I did. Check this out.


7.69231
Blade 2 (2002)

Guillermo del Toro

Not as good as the first movie, but was still enjoyable. The special effects were good, but unneeded in parts. Check this out if you're a fan of Blade.


7.66667
Cold Prey II (2008)

Mats Stenberg

While the first film delivered a very moody and atmospheric slasher, its sequel offers us a great old-school ballsy action-oriented slasher with an intimidating and potentially iconic killer. If you...


7.66667
Doghouse (2009)

Jake West

Although the movie has received a lot of mixed responses from viewers, I personally enjoyed it for the most part. It kept me entertained, fed my appetite for gore, gave me some interesting baddies,...


7.66667
Demons 2 (1986)

Lamberto Bava

A fun movie that's just as good as the first. Keeps a lot of what made the first good, plus throws in some new material. Definitely worth a check if you're a fan of the first.


7.66667
Clownhouse (1988)

Victor Salva

A surprisingly entertaining movie. If you have a fear of clowns I recommend you check this film, so you care scare the crap outta yourself.


7.66667
Underworld (2003)

Len Wiseman

A good watch for both horror and action fans. Doesn't slow down on the action and keeps you interested from the start. Check this baby out.


7.66667
Ginger Snaps (2000)

John Fawcett

One of the best werewolf flicks that have come in a long while. Recommended for any horror fan.


7.64286
Final Destination 3 (2006)

James Wong

I personally think this is the weakest in the trilogy, but it's to be expected considering the previous two were held high in regards to entertainment and originality on my list. However, the...


7.63636
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

Tobe Hooper

One of my favorite horror films. This is a violent and edgy cult film that leaves you thinking about it weeks after viewing it. Highly recommended for any horror fan.


7.63636
28 Days Later (2002)

Danny Boyle

A very well done British horror film. Don't be fooled by other critics, this isn't a zombie movie. Interesting story and characters. Check this out whenever you can.


7.625
28 Weeks Later (2007)

Juan Carlos...

One of the best horror films to come out of 2007 -- 28 Weeks Later surpasses the first movie in many ways and keeps us on the edge of our seats right from the start. See this movie.


7.6
Splinter (2008)

Toby Wilkins

Simple and effective, this flick brings back the old school creature feature and offers some cool practical effects to boot. Throw in some decent gore and an original villain and Splinter makes for a...


7.6
Resident Evil (2002)

Paul W. S. Anderson

Good entertaining movie. A lot better than I thought it would be. This should satisfy zombie fans and fans of the video game. Check this movie out and look out for the sequel!


7.57143
Let the Right One In (2008)

Tomas Alfredson

More of a romance-drama than a horror flick, this proved to be a good and semi-original take on the vampire sub-genre. Though, due to its slow-pace it will likely turn off viewers, but if you don...


7.5625
Neon Maniacs (1985)

Joseph Mangine

A very underated 80s monster flick. If you liked Clive Barker's Nightbreed I suggest you check this film out.


7.5
Who Can Kill a Child? (1976)

Narciso Ibáñez...

A good and underrated killer-kids flick. Slow paced, but interesting and doesn't hold back on the violence towards adults or kids. Worth a check if you're a fan of the sub-genre.


7.5
Resident Evil: Extinction (2007)

Russell Mulcahy

I personally found the film to be the weakest in the series due to its numerous plot-holes and lack of action. However, I loved the post-apocalyptic feel and thought the action it did have was an...
