54186

These were near the very top of my own list, with Carpenter's icy The Thing as my third overall choice and Kubrick's somehow even colder The Shining right behind it at number four. I'm not...

Hitch's Psycho I only had as my eleventh pick, more as a strategic positioning since I knew it didn't need my help to crest near the very top. But, you know....it's great. Obviously. 'Nuff said.

Polanski's Rosemary's Baby is my numer-o uno. A masterpiece of dread, paranoia, and even dark humor. Horror is my least favorite genre, but every genre can offer masterpieces that transcend the...

I had Romero's original grandaddy of 'em all Night of the Living Dead as my seventh overall pick. It's still unsettling today, perhaps partly because the low budget aesthetic has made it...

I had the sublime, classic The Innocents as my fifteenth pick. Jack Clayton's big screen adaptation of Henry James' American ghost story "The Turn of the Screw" is timeless.

I had Shaun of the Dead as my twenty-third choice. Young Frankenstein is one of my two or three top comedies of all time, but I didn't include it for this list because I thought while a...

Polanski's Repulsion was on my list in almost the same spot as the groupthink at numero twenty-two. I still believe the remaining nine from my list are going to show in the top twenty-two, even with...

I had Jordan Peele's debut all the way up at number five. The intersection of horror, suspense, science fiction, dark comedy, and social satire is just so damn irresistible. To me Get Out was worth...
