In the spirit of halloween I have composed a cliche’d top ten list for you to look over. The top ten scariest movies of all time…now this is just my opinion, a very informed opinion mind you but feel free to comment, judge or whatever. My criteria for this list was that the movies had to have scared me or made me jump at some point, not gory, not a murder mystery wrapped in horror, not comedy horror ie.Evil dead 2,Dead Alive etc., Just plain old scary, creepy & disturbing.

I’ve been a horror movie fan all my life, read Famous Monsters magazine, Fangoria etc., I’m a “hardcore” horror movie fan, any genre J-horror, zombies, creature,vampire, haunted house & slasher. So read on and enjoy horror movie fans:

10. The Fog-John Carpenter’s original,when that bible fell out of the wall, DAMN! the scares began

9. Suspiria-Italian horror genious Dario Argento’s classic,slow start but creepy in levels till that ending.

8. Friday the 13th-the original,when Kevin Bacon got it classic,suspenseful and gory.

7. Psycho- Alfred Hitchcocks classic still holds up.

6. The Descent-When the cave creature first appears behind the chick made even the toughest guy jump, dark, claustraphobic, suspenseful, gory, classic.

5. The Unborn- Some of the creepiest most disturbing imagery yet.

4. Ju-On – The original japanese classic,otherwise known as “The Grudge”,dread from begining to end.

3. Dawn Of The Dead(remake) - Zack Snyder put his thing down with this one changing zombie films forever,my personal favorite zombie flick.

2. Alien-Ridley Scott’s space horror classic,who’d a thought they’d be able to get 4 sequels out of this classic(Aliens being the best)

1. The Exorcist-We all know why, must I go on? Please hollywood DON’T remake this stand alone classic, if it didn’t scare you, you aren’t human or a good liar, I saw it in a theater at age 9, it ruined me for yrs & STILL holds up. Watch any of these alone in a dark rm, or even with your lady, I dare you.

Honorable mention: Mirrors-veeery creepy.

Next, top ten scariest video games, again no wimps allowed, I mean really scary.
