...Dog Soldiers...Awesome movie!
I think DOG SOLDIERS is better appreciated in the USA, where the novelty value of variable British accents (and indeed of a British horror film) helps this one stand out from the crowd.

Hats off to Neil Marshall for keeping it all non-CGI, but the film was still disappointing as it did not need to progress from its own knowing-ness about werewolf movies as long as the snappy dialogue was there to keep the multiplex crowd in on the joke (and in doing so extinguish the pure terror monsters like these should evoke).

A fun movie, but I'd swap all this intestine-spilling and gut-glueing for the jarring peep-show scene in THE HOWLING or the terrifically eerie stalking-through-the-tube-station in AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON any day.

You could not buy 'SALEM'S LOT, but you'd be missing out on a very scary movie with some great characters, lots of eerie set-pieces, a cracking soundtrack and one of the finest Stephen King adaptations to date.

Skratch skratch! Open the window...

The original Salems Lot with David Soul and not the remake they did this year, or last year, whenever it was.

Children Of The Corn with Linda Hamilton is a good King adaption too, along with Carrie and possibly It (It has a lame ending though and it's kinda long). Oh and Pet Sematary 1 and 2 are both pretty decent.
Some people are partial to The Shining but I can't take Kubrick movies, unless it's Dr Strangelove.

Rosemary's Baby is a def. April Fools Day was also good but worth owning? It's one of those movies I enjoyed the first time but probably won't pick it up again if I owned it. Salem's Lot is an own and I can't give any opinions on the others. Havn't seen 'em.

Personally, I love Poltergeist.

I would not call it a horror - but maybe supernatural thriller. Anyway, definately one to watch\buy in my opinion.
