1. Halloween (1978)with the ones I've seen (11 out of 20) in bold print. I have Halloween, Jaws, The Exorcist, Rosemary's Baby, Suspiria, Friday the 13th, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and A Nightmare on Elm Street on the shelf waiting their turn.

I think I must've gotten this link from SFSignal.com but have lost track of it while I was waiting for the final installment to post.
Nosfuratu is my fave. I am watching son of frankenstein right now. (1939)
ReplyDeletei love nosferatu! i recently saw a movie called shadow of the vampire, which is a fictionalized account of the making of nosferatu. it suggests that max schreck was an actual vampire. great fun. it makes it almost seem possible ;)
Deletewe watched the lon chaney, jr, wolfman (again) tonight. that's one of my favorites.
