...even though the oldest movie on your Top 10 came out in '62?
Personally, I cant decide...
20's had some awesome silents (Phantom of the Opera, Nosferatu, ect.)
30's and 40's were the Golden age of horror...this is where almost all of the classic horror stars got their start. Tons of incredible movies from this era, and not just from Universal.
50's...Im not a
huge fan of the 50's for horror, but there are a few gems.
60's...Vincent Price and Roger Corman at the top of their game, Romero re-inventing zombies, plus a bunch of other cool stuff.
70's were hugely influential...the birth of slashers being one of the stand out features, though there was plenty other awesomes moves in the genre.
80's were fun...lots of slashers, lots of gore and the occaisonal serious flick slipped in there.
90's were decent...a couple classics, but not a whole lot to get excited about.
2000 +...the jury is still out. Most of the mainstream releases have been crap, but that trend seems to be picking up somewhat plus theres been alot of lesser known gems.
I could find a handful of my favourite movies in any decade...cant decide.
