You know, The Exorcist was stupid....they should have just slapped that little biyatch with some ritalin and whacked her upside the head with a stick and yelled "SIT DOWN AND STUDY!!"

And Evil Dead, see that's what happens when you let college kids out into the woods and they forget to pack the penicillin....

In case you didn't notice, I'm being sarcastic......:rolleyes:

For horror movies I'll vote for Exocist and for non-horror, I have Back to the Future on my list.

Two of my top 3 are already mentioned:

- Jaws
- Exorcist
- Vertigo

They're all decent movies IMO, but nowhere near as good as their reputation.

Most of the Friday the 13th series, and I'm not just talking about that last one's either. I had to watch them when I was older, because I was much to young to see them when they first emerged (being the tender age of 2 or 3).

As for the Exorcist... I guess I can see why people would say that... However, for it's time...it was pretty intense. The problems I have with it are from a purely occult perspective.

Anywho...

The remake "Dawn of the Dead" ...but what can you expect of a remake, right?

The main reason that I didnt like The Exorcist as much as most people is because I did something that is guarnteed to ruin a movie: I read the book first. On top of that, I thought it was great. After reading it, the movie seemed so rushed. Normally I dont like long movies, but even another half hour would have made The Exorcist much better. The movie hardly tells us anything about Father Karras, while in the book he was a very full and well written charater, so I was disapointed. Dont get me wrong, I think it's a decent film and it was very well made, just nowhere near as good as it could/should have been.

I havent watched it in almost a year though, I suppose I should give it another chance.
