These are a few of my favorite horrors

Some of my horror favorites (some not so horrific, but intended to be):

• The Hitcher (Rutger Hauer does a great job as the villain in this. He’s way over the top, but I saw it as youngster and he creeped me out)
• Frankenstein (Boris Karloff classic. Colin Clive is great as the maniacal doctor.)
• Creature From the Black Lagoon (Aside
  from the great 3-D shots and soundtrack. Julia Adams is VERY watchable.
  I hope it’s remade some day with Jennifer Connelly! )
• Night of the Living Dead (To me, the original is the creepiest. “They’re coming to get you, Barbara.” It’s so bleak.)
• Return of the Living Dead (On the flipside, the “Return” is a lot of fun. Gruesome special effects, amusing story and a lot “ewwwww” moments)
• Miracle Mile (Very obscure movie about the struggle of one guy to get out of the way of a nuclear attack. Anthony Edwards stars.)
• Fright
  Night I and II (Roddy McDowall shows off his best as a washed-up
  horror show host. Lots of good performances. I would have loved more
  sequels)
• The Lost Boys (A great modern take on vampires)
• Near Dark (Vampires with a twist)
• The Bad Seed (You wouldn’t think a little girl can be creepy, but she is.)
• Pet Semetary (Despite people’s complaints that this is a watered down version of the Stephen King novel, it’s still scary as sh*t.)
• Cujo (As “it could happen” tales, this is the most horrifying)
• Nightmare on Elm Street (Good, but hurt by it sequels. Though New Nightmare was pretty neat.)
• John Carpenter’s The Thing (Few movies have as good “jump out of your seat” moments as this.)
