Here is a list of my all time favorite horror movies (in no particular order):
- Rosemary's Baby (1968)
- The Omen (1976)
- The Exorcist (1973)
- The Shining (1980)
- Psycho (1960)
- Carrie (1976)
- Communion (1976)
I know, Psycho might sound a little out of place in this list, but the movie generates this eerie feeling and the end just creeps me out. Another thing you will notice is there are no movies in the list form recent times. I feel that the movies that were made in the 70s - 80s were basically, masterpieces. I mean, for anyone who's seen Rosemary's Baby will agree that the chilling sensation that stays with you throughout the length of the film freaks you out, especially when it reaches it's height in the penultimate reel. And who can forget Jack Nicholson's slow descent into madness in The Shining.
These are outstanding films which will not lose their impact and the feeling they generate; no matter how many years go by or how many times you watch them.
P.S.: To the ones who haven't seen these movies....shame on you.
