What decade are most of your favourite horror movies from?

Personally, I think mine is the 1970's. It seemed an exciting time for films in general - there was more graphic stuff happening onscreen, and boundaries were being broken - but also the old school approach was still apparent. One could argue that nothing particularly new has been done since the 70's films.

Some great 70's horror films: The Exorcist, Blood On Satan's Claw, The Omen, To The Devil A Daughter, Halloween, The Vampire Lovers, Horror Express, Bloodsucking Freaks...

So, what do you think? If you could give a reason or examples as well, that would be grand.

My apologies if this has been done before.
