This looks like a pretty good list. One movie in the second half surprised me. While it is a really excellent movie Night of the Hunter is not what I would call a horror film.
ReplyDeletei've tried to watch that movie and haven't been able to get through it. it's that whole child endangerment thing. that bothers me more than almost all other movie themes (tropes?), and i just can't get past it. i can't remember how many tries it took me to make it through "m".
DeleteGasp! How could you have lived and not seen Jaws, Rosemary's Baby, The Exorcist, Halloween (my # 1 scary movie - terrified of Michael Myers in that mask) or The Thing? You must be very young. :) I was just thinking that I definitely need to watch Rosemary's Baby again. The music alone creeps me out. haha
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by my blog. My husband and I watch a lot of movies (and all kinds) so I'm sure I'll find your blog to be of interest.
no, i'm not young. i remember when they came out, but i just used to avoid horror movies. I found bela lugosi's dracula scary. ;) My older son spent several years introducing me to modern horror, but i'm still lacking many of the classics. eventually, i'll catch up with the rest of the world. just call me a late bloomer. lol
