I presume you mean popular with the fans rather than 'biggest selling'?

Dude really? Nightmare on Elm Street, Let The Right One In, Dracula, The Howling, Carrie, Sleepy Hollow, and The Omen? REALLY?

Lol seriously though, you're free to like and dislike whatever you want. I agree with you on 28 Days Later as i didnt like that but i did like 28 Weeks Later.

For me the biggest one has gotta be The Shining. I hated it and everyone loves that movie. Also The Hills Have Eyes Remake was raved about and i thought that was terrible. I'll come up with some more later.

Sorry, That list is totally wack. How could anyone like "28 Weeks Later" better than "28 Days" ? "Weeks" had a lot of action but a very silly plot, "Days" seems the opposite. Less action, more plot character driven. I don't know anything, the mom being the "carrier" in the ending was lame for me. TWwwwwwwwiiiist.

"Let the right one in" is a masterpiece, maybe a teenager might be bitter towards the romance/horror. It's a non-gay twilight haha. But it's great... in my opinion.


Zombieland is funny too. You shouldn't dislike so much for being "popular". You'll miss out on a lot in life...in my opinion.

I didnt like Days because i hate it when zombie movies go the military route and by that i mean the survivors happen upon a group of military men who take them back to their base and they think they are safe but the soldiers are crazy and attack them and such showing that humans are the bigger monsters and blah blah blah.

I know Weeks focused on the military too but that was more them trying to clean it up and keep it hidden then it was just them going batshit crazy. Also i liked the immune plot line. It added something to the story.

SPOILERSPlus the scene where the husband kisses the wife, turns and rips her to pieces is horrifying and really stuck in my mind
END OF SPOILERS

Also and i know this is a little homophobic of me but i really didnt need to see Cillian Murphy's dick.
