Maybe the audience were getting jaded by the constant slasher movies and wanted more, not just to be scared, but amused, this came into fruition with the appearance of the 2 Evil Deads. Where Part 1 was scary as hell, part 2 combined slapstick black humor and cheesy atmosphere with ultra-gore frights. For the first time, audiences worldwide were treated to a brilliant concoction of humor and horror.

Each is worthy of the award, but there is one, that especially this time of year, October is fondly remembered; Heralding a new icon of terror...Michael Myers.

A true horror classic. Infact it was so important that it may have changed the way the film industry was heading for. A milestone in epic film-making.

Again more classics, each a perfect example of its kind. However because of perhaps its story, make-up effects and that uncontrollable image of pure animal instinct, there was one that does stand out from the rest: The Wolf Man.

Each has something to offer but one, perhaps due to the subject and the director, did stand out. Its a unique film in its own right.
