I got a couple hundred. Mostly slasher zombie and vampire flicks, but i got some other shit too. Lots of B-movies. Lots of Troma.
I'm in the process (It will take me a few years.) of watching, grading, and writing a review of every single horror movie that I can get my hands on. (My long term goal is to get a book published for horror fans, by a horror fan.)
At this point, A Nightmare on Elm St. (original) is leading the pack as the best movie I've reviewed yet. (It got 86/100 pts. I am a very tough critic.) But please be aware that I haven't gotten around to watching many films that I know are good. (I haven't even watched any of the Halloweens, Fridays, or TCMs, yet. I've seen them, I just havent rewatched them since I started doing this grading thing.)
I grade on the following criteria....
20 point catergories- Plot, Villain, Scariness
10 point catergories- Gore, FX, Script, Acting.
Side Note: If anyone's interested here are the other films that are currently in my top 10.
1-A Nightmare on Elm St.- 86/100
2-Dawn of the Dead (Original)- 85/100
3-Freddy vs. Jason- 83/100
4-Day of the Dead- 81/100
5-Return of the Living Dead- 76/100
6-Night of the Living Dead (orignal)- 75/100
7-Hellraiser- 74/100
8-A Nightmare on Elm St. 3- 73/100
T9-Evil Dead- 71/100
T9-Demons- 71/100
T9- Night of the Living Dead (Remake)- 71/100
I'm sure that there will be a lot of people who would like to argue me on this list, but please understand that I haven't watched every movie yet. I am well aware that there are more than 2 horror movies that have a higher overall entertainment value than Freddy vs. Jason, I just haven't gotten to them yet. I will admit that I was almost saddened by the score that Demons and Evil Dead ended with. These are two of my all-time favorites, but using my grading scale and remaining consistent with the criteria I used in grading all the other films, they ended up with the scores that they have. (They both got 10/10 in the gore catergory, but they suffered in some of the others.)
Please feel free to respond as I am anxious to hear feedback on this post.
