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

âThe Fright Night remake is a film which taps into the audienceâs deepest rooted fears, such as those of vampires throwing motorcycles at them. I dread the thought of a vampire throwing a refrigerator or a deskjet printer or... Iâd better stop before I give myself nightmaresâ
