evil dead
phantasm
the hills have eyes

i can't believe you put scream on your list

i cant beleave you put evil dead on your list


p.s. your avatar is magnificent

Suspiria
Demons
Creepers
The Burning
Basket Case
Evil Dead 2...... are some just of the top of my head.

I haven't seen Scream for years I do remember enjoying it when I first saw it. I might have to check it out again to decide if I like it still. I saw Scream 3 on television not to long ago and it fucking sucked (and I like some true cinematic shit!).

i agree scream 3 was pretty bad

A few that were not mentioned:

Re-animator
Hellraiser
The Brood
The Fly
Return of the Living Dead
The Shining
Zombie
The Dead trilogy

What he said, plus Wes Cravens New Nightmare.

The Evil Dead 2
An American Werewolf In London
The Exorcist
Blair Witch Project
Frankenstien
The Wicker Man
Alien
The Others
Dawn of the Dead
Invasion of the Bodysnatchers
Coma
Pin
Interview with a Vampire
The Birds

and loads of others that I cant think of right now. One point I will make is that really good horror films dont date, and alot of films I enjoyed at the time are just too dated now to be on an essential list. Though I still enjoy them.

the others come on youve got to be kidding me

he he he knew that one would cause controversy. To be honest I really didnt like the look of it and had to be persuaded to go see it. Haunted house stories are always bad. I had never liked one ghost film I ever saw. Until I saw The Others. Not only is it extremely well made and acted, I found it genuinly creepy. Probably the best haunted house film ever.

no way the best is house on haunted hill old version and new

I have to admit that some parts of Wes Cravens New Nightmare were kinda cool (like the four claw marks on the wall, caused by one of the earthquakes) but that wasn't scary at all. It was a comedy. Entertaining, though.

I loved The Others. When I first saw it I thought it was really creepy, and scary..

My list is:


-Scream (Classic lines, and cool deaths. I don't care if it's a teen movie, I love it)
-Night of the Living Dead (The original)
-A Nightmare on Elm Street
-Friday the 13th
-The Others
-The Ring
-Halloween
-Interview with the Vampire
-Psycho
-The Birds
-Bram Stoker's Dracula
-Poltergeist

sleepaway camp was a classic

I'd say...
