The top 50 horror movies

We're not really that into horror movies (we didn't grow a spine until we were 17), but we like the blog name Blood Letters so much we had to at least gloss over his list of the top 50 horror movies. We're a little disturbed that whoever's writing this admits Clive Barker is his favorite author, but we can't argue over the choice of Hellraiser for the top spot. Do we really think Hellraiser is the best horror film of all time? No. However, it had us biting a throw pillow (in the non-sex sense) throughout our one and only viewing.

Just for the record, we would've pushed both Dead Ringers and An American Werewolf in London into the top three, and made certain Interview with the Vampire and The Exorcist were more than two - two! - spots apart. All in all, not bad. It's better than listing Troy as one of the top-five war movies, right?

Here's the Blood Letters' top 10, for your pleasure:

10.) The Hitcher (1986)

9.) The Blair Witch Project (1999)

8.) Carnival of Souls (1962)

7.) Angel Heart (1987)

6.) Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1990)

5.) Dead Ringers (1988)

4.) Night of the Living Dead (1968)

3.) The Haunting (1963)

2.) Cube (1997)

1.) Hellraiser (1987)

Oh, and where's The Thing?
