I find it difficult to take a horror list seriously if it omits fairly icon films like Alien or Jaws.

Also, since it includes "The Ring" and "Frailty," I hold absolutely no respect for its committee of arbitration.


The one redeeming aspect is having "Halloween" as number 1, though that's pretty much a no-brainer (ahh, sweet brainless populous).

It'd be a no-brainer if Se7en weren't the best horror movie ever.

Hmmm... Depends on your definition of "Horror." I'd say that Halloween and Seven are too different to be compared as horror movies. Halloween is more suspenseful slasher while Seven is more exploitative shocking investigative thriller.

So, personally, I wouldn't add Seven to that list.
