It is now October already and Halloween night is just around the corner! They can be horror films from the past and even today’s horror films. These are the ones that I think that are the absolute best, a horror movie with perfection, with a small explanation under the title in italics, I’ll start off with the first ten.

On Halloween night, if you’re looking for some flicks to rent at your local video stores, check out these. I’m sure you’ve already seen some of them many times before though.

My Top Ten in order here:

1. Halloween (Carpenter version)

Simply a classic film. Best horror film ever made in my opinion nothing tops this. This is one of those films that you never get tired of watching and it is kind of scary everytime you see it too. I watch this every year on Halloween night.

2. The Exorcist

This film is amazing. I watch this one on Halloween night a lot too.

3. Night of the Living Dead (original Romero version)

Obviously the best zombie flick of the Romero Living Dead series. Definitely a perfect film to watch with all the lights off.

4. Evil Dead II: Dead By Dawn

This is my favorite of the entire Evil Dead series. It has humor, gore and scary parts mixed into one. A perfect Halloween flick.

5. The Ring

A newer film, but this film is fantastic. I hated the Ring II, but the first one was very well made. The first one was actually creepy and scary as hell. There’s no gore and no murder in this film, that’s what a true horror movie is supposed to be.

6. Frailty

Bill Paxton wrote, directed and starred the leading role in. This film is dark and evil, about a couple kids living their life not realizing what their dad really was, a serial killer. I’d reccomend you see this one.

7. Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake

I love the remake more than the Tobe Hooper original, sorry. I find the remake to be much more scarier and more entertaining. This film is great!

8. Hellraiser

This is such a great movie, Hellbound rules. A character created by it’s own Clive Barker.

9. Hellbound: Hellraiser II

The sequel to Hellraiser is really great too. The first couple of Hellraiser movies were real good, but everything past IV are crap. The Hellraiser movies are screwed. No wonder they are planning a reboot now.

10. Wolf Creek

Simply one of the best new teen slasher flicks in a long long long time. I was really surprised by this film. I thought it would be no different than other teen slashers, but I was wrong, this one was different. Some of the scenes are actually disturbing and shocking. Another serial killer flick that is reccomended to see.

I’ll finish the other ten in the next week or so.
