Dr. BriggsFavorite films/horror films
#1
Okay a couple days ago I made up a list of my top 45 movies, not necessarily horror films, but unsurprisingly most were. I'm asking you all for your favorite movies in general here, since most likely the people around here will prefer horror films most of all.

For me, it's hard to judge horror alone since when you're judging strictly on scares/horror merits it's harder IMO.

These are rated for how "good" I thought they were (1st rating out of 10), and how much I enjoyed them in general. This is not a very concrete list, I put it together rather quickly and rather myopically as well to be honest. Mostly after around my top 5 or 7 it changes a lot Tongue

I agree with a whole lot of your horror choices, not so much the non-horror really.

I remember liking it quite a bit too, unfortunately, few enough people do for Image to put the DVD out of print... It now goes for 77 bucks... >.>

Yeah, the cheapest copy I could find was about 100 bucks. And I really don't see myself spending that much for it....

[COLOR="Cyan"]I have to say, I don't really have a favorite movie. There are very few movies that I'll watch more than once. Here's the short list:
-Jaws
-Lake Placid
-Rosemary's Baby
-Amityville Horror
I have a short attention span and a good memory. Needless to say, I buy very few movies.
