Exorcist, The | 1973 | 97 | 1 | - The greatest horror film of all time that still holds up today with atmosphere and creepiness. |
Psycho | 1960 | 97 | 1 | - Alfred Hitchcock killed his main protagonist within 30 minutes of the film. It also brought us the iconic knife in the shower scene. |
Shining, The | 1980 | 97 | 1 | - "The Shining" brings us not only Stanley Kubrick's horror masterpiece, but a Jack Nicholson that terrifies beyond belief. |
Jaws | 1975 | 92.6 | 4 | - "Jaws" was the birth of the blockbuster. It still terrifies today. |
Silence of the Lambs, The | 1991 | 92.6 | 4 | - Lets just say I would have put the lotion on the skin. |
Poltergeist | 1982 | 88 | 6 | - "Poltergeist" is a great family horror film that still scares today. |
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) | 1974 | 83.6 | 7 | - A great horror film that might disgust, but brings thrills. |
Blair Witch Project, The | 1999 | 80 | 8 | - While it surely scared many others, I never found it as scary as people said it was. |
It | 1990 | 80 | 8 | - One of Stephen King's best known novels becomes an overlong, but scary horror film about a clown that kills kids. |
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) | 1984 | 74.6 | 10 | - "A Nightmare on Elm Street" was certainly frightening back in 1984, but unfortunately it hasn't aged too well. |
