Both director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson have plenty of successes in their career, but Screamremains a big highlight for both men. Williamson's script managed to deftly be so many things -- it was a sly meta/self-parody about the horror genre that didn't cross the line into goofiness, while also playing as a successful whodunit and, mos...
Count Orlok is moving to Germany, and he’s bringing pestilence and shadows with him. F.W. Murnau’s shameless rip-off of Bram Stoker’s Dracula does away with the sensuality that many associate with the undead monster, revealing the vampire to be a sad and rat-like creature, tormented by isolation and completely wrong for the modern world. Murnau see...
The movie that gave birth to the widespread "horror movie as faux-documentary" trend and that inspired such films as Paranormal Activity, The Blair Witch Projectis quite an effective scare fest in retrospect. Some of its then-inspired choices in the realm of "is it or isn't real" seem dated and obvious now, given the fact that the Internet seemingl...
All of today's mega-popular vampire franchises owe a debt of gratitude to Count Dracula. And as much as Bram Stoker's original novel helped popularize the vampire story, it was Universal's 1931 adaptationthat cemented the image of Dracula in the minds of most moviegoers. Dracula condenses and combines many of the main characters from the novel, ope...
The zombie genre is bigger than ever now, and you have 28 Days Laterto thank for it. The genre was practically dead by the time Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland gave zombies a much needed shot of adrenaline with this film. Seriously, this movie is pumped up on adrenaline. The zombies -- er, sorry, “infected” -- sprint through the movie, sp...
David Cronenberg's very R-rated, very intense and very excellent remake of The Flyputs Jeff Goldblum in the role of Seth Brundle, a scientist who invents telepods meant to change the world. Instead, they change him into a man-fly monster when a fly accidentally gets trapped in one of the machines as Seth teleports from one pod to the other. The scr...
It rarely hurts to merge horror with a tinge of comedy, and John Landis' An American Werewolf in London is one of the finer examples of that combination. It's also one of several iconic werewolf moviesthat hit theaters in 1981. Of the trio, American Werewolf remains the most popular and well-loved. The film begins with two backpackers traveling the...
Can you believe that there's a movie on our list that got its title from a Morrissey song? This most unusual of love stories is a Swedish film which hit it big internationally with its tale of a 12-year-old boy and his centuries-old vampire... who looks like a 12-year-old girl (but most certainly isn't). Whether or not Oskar and Eli's relationship ...
Of course we're including a giallofilm on this list, though the question did come up as to which of the Italian horror masters was most deserving to represent this distinctive genre. In the end, we had to give it to Dario Argento and his Suspiria -- a supernatural shocker that is an experience in style as well as terror. The film is about an Americ...
George Romero practically created the zombie movie genre single-handedly in 1968 with Night of the Living Dead. Ten years later he refined the formula with Dawn of the Dead. Far bigger, gorier, and funnier than its predecessor, Dawn of the Dead remains Romero's definitive work. Whereas Night featured a small cast of survivors holed up in a remote f...
1. The Amityville Horror. 1979 1h 57m R. 6.2 (45K) Rate. 28 Metascore. Newlyweds and their three children move into a large house where a mass murder was committed. They start to experience strange, inexplicable manifestations which have strong effects on everyone living in or visiting the house.
- 'Psycho' (1960) When you think of classic horror, what's the first image that comes to mind? If it's the raised knife of Psycho's famous shower scene, you're not alone.
- 'The Exorcist' (1973) The demonic possession film has become a sub-genre of its own and the OG entry in the category is 1973's The Exorcist. WATCH IT.
- 'Rosemary's Baby' (1968) Adulting is scary enough on its own without adding demonic elements, like giving birth to the literal spawn of satan. That's the premise of 1968's Rosemary's Baby though and it's as horrifying as it sounds.
- 'A Nightmare on Elm Street' (1984) A monstrous murderer who comes for you in your dreams and kills you in your sleep? It's a real nightmare and, appropriately, the premise for the '80s classic.
