Austin think about it if there had not ever been a 1st Horror movie there would not be a horror movie genre. It was the 1st horror movie that inspired other film makers to make that type of movie. It just so happens to be the 1st Horror movie ever made was Georges melies The Devils Castle in 1896. And dont forget the 1st Scifi movie was A trip to the moon 1902 without that movie there would not be a Scifi genre and Melies made that movie as well. Anyway thats why I think the DevilsCastle is the best because without it no other horror movies would even exist. I could say my faves are Exorcist the Omen Halloween Frankenstien 1931 Dracula 1931 but they arnt. I saw those movies at the Drive in growing up but imo Hammers 1968 movie The Devil Rides Out is a far better movie than the Exorcist and it is a shame the Devil Rides out never made it here in the US. I like Karloff in Universals 1931 Frankenstien movie alot but I think Hammer made better Frankenstien movies with Peter Cushing. And Chris Lee rules as Dracula not that Bela did a bad job bela was great in 1931 but perhaps Carlos Villarias in Universals Spanish Dracula movie may have done a better job at playing the evil count. I never really thought of Halloween as being great and I am puzzled by fans who say it is. The Exorcist is a very good movie not scary but well made. The Omen I love Damien Omen I like even better. But the 1931 Frankenstien would have never of been made had it not been for Thomas Edison who made the 1st Frankenstien movie in 1910 the 2nd Frankenstien movie was in 1915 titled Life without a Soul. Then 16 years later Universal made Frankenstien with Karloff. I think the 5 movies I picked were good choices for what they are and for what they represent in Horror movie history.
