Genre Films: Horror

Hitchcock is the master of suspense, but you can't help but laugh when the man is "falling" down the stairs. Gotta love the '60s!

The quintessential of all horror movies, this is one of Jack Nicholson's best performances. You'll never see anything like it again, at least in terms of quality, and you'll watch it over and over again. It's just that good.

Some of the best on-screen deaths ever filmed on camera. From a technical stand point, easily Carpenter's best film, full of creepy ambiance that still has the same impact as it did 25 years. So I guess to sum it up all in one word: Brilliant.

Fucking incredible. Danny Boyle is a genius and is one of the most promising directors around, right next to P.T. Anderson and Christopher Nolan. But I think Boyle thought he was making part of 28 Days Later during the filming of the final part of Sunshine. It's the only explanation.

Thank you Bill Paxton for delivering one of the greatest, most quotable lines ever. The world is forever in your debt.

It's hampered by some shoddy production values, but it's still as effective as it was 40 years ago. I love the ending in particular.

One of the most batshit insane movies ever made. And the goriest. And extremely hilarious. Doesn't hold a candle to Evil Dead 2 in my book, but this is something nobody should miss out on.
