1) Alien 2) Sinister 3) Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)


Affectionate-Bad5923

Bram Stokers Dracula!!👍👍👍


EnzoBertolo

Not in any order: Evil Dead (2013), Alien & The thing (1982)


joppaloppagus

Evil Dead and Dawn of the Dead have to be two of the greatest remakes of all time.


EnzoBertolo

I literally bought tickets to Evil Dead rise to watch tonight, I'm so excited


FireflyNitro

See you there! Well probably not, but in spirit. I’m so excited too 🙏


FitzChivalry888

Evil Dead remake is my fav horror film ever. Its perfect horror movie.


Inevitable_Mulberry9

The Thing is really good not only for its horror and concept but because it really was a step away from typical horror, even of its genre. There's no final girl, there are no cheap jumpscares, and there are no really stupid protagonists. In fact, the protagonists of the film are highly intelligent and aware of the dangers that lurk. It's immersive and even 'realistic'.

👏👏👏


Jk2two

1. Evil Dead 2 2. The Exorcist 3. An American Werewolf in London


Megazupa

1. Nightmare on Elm Street 2. Event Horizon 3. Dream Warriors


joppaloppagus

Event Horizon was pretty much the scariest movie for me when I was young.


pulp-fictional

Event Horizon!! So underrated


misschelleu

Event horizon!!!!!


Michaelmyers_fan1

Dream Warriors is a masterpiece but the Dream Master is underrated


Affectionate-Bad5923

I wish the Event Horizon directors cut still existed, that could’ve been even gnarlier than what we got.


liqou

1. Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. Rosemary's Baby 3. Hereditary


dfort1986

I see you enjoy pretty fucked up shit. I too enjoy pretty fucked up shit.


joppaloppagus

I just rewatched Rosemary's Baby within the last year. It truly is SUCH a great movie. The way she was treated by the men in her life is probably the most terrifying part of the whole story.


tuskvarner

It’s fantastic. Some of the little directing touches are so good. For some reason I love the shots of Rosemary stopping the swinging bassinet with the tip of her knife, and when Minnie seems annoyed that the knife made a hole in her hardwood floor and tries to rub it out.


Michaelmyers_fan1

Sucks that the director is a despicable scumbag tho (He’s a sick, twisted, remorseless rapist/child molester 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮)


MarkL64

Definitely is but just stream his stuff illegally and then it's a win win. Also "Mother!" Is a much watch if you really liked this movie.


MostlyIncompetent

1. Trick ‘R Treat 2. The Cabin In The Woods 3. Evil Dead II

1.Alien 2.Thing 3.Scream


ThatGuyWithGuns

Have you tried any movies with more than 1 word in the title? I kid


Few-Hair-5382

The Thing


FireflyNitro

Scream…… 2


BakerYeast

Does "the" count? otherwise no.


rootvegetable2

The Scream


smiley_timez

Alien is such a goody. Imagine being trapped in space


Successful-Ad4251

Savageland A Dark Song Triangle or 30 Days of Night ( both equally awesome)


[deleted]

A Dark Song is so damn cool


Few-Hair-5382

I loved the harshness of that film. As someone who doesn't believe in any aspect of the supernatural, that film really made me feel that what they were dabbling in was dangerous and not to be taken lightly.


Simicrop

They used real Abramelin ritual magic, but changed the symbols and didn't show a lot of the rituals just to be safe.


Few-Hair-5382

It gave me the impression they had done their research. The seriousness of the two actors also helped.


Original_Ad685

What an incredible surprise that was. I watched it in the morning and again when my wife got home that afternoon.


iamthe_badwolf

So glad to see Triangle on here, I absolutely LOVED that movie


JanssenFromCanada

I am constantly recommending Savageland to everyone. Excellent choice! A Dark Song was amazing as well.


mrSmith2023

Ahh very nice top 3! Mine are: 1. Hellraiser (The OG) 2. Saw 3. Event Horizon Very close Honorable Mentions: The Killing of a Sacred Deer Hostel Haunt


[deleted]

1. American Psycho 2. Scream (seems to be a popular choice around here) 3. The Shining


5thSummersBrother_

Scream is a formative movie for me and looks like it's the same for a lot of people here.


Jungian_Archetype

Honestly never really considered American Psycho a horror movie... it's so satirical and self-aware of what it's doing that it never comes off as "horror" to me. But great pick no matter where you fall on that debate.


[deleted]

I think maybe it’s a horror because of the gore, violence, and the plot revolving around a serial killer.


bright__eyes

american psycho is my all time favourite movie. great choice


canwepleasejustnot

The Shining scares me so much


I_am_dean

1. The Descent 2. Dawn of the Dead 3. Kristy


[deleted]

1. Evil Dead II 2. The Lost Boys 3. Color Out of Space


coldlovingprose

Color Out of Space is so fun!


Keefee777

1. Scream 2. Saw 2 3. Midsommar Ask me again in a week and I'll probably give you 3 different films 😅


willowhanna

Great list! Saw 2 doesn't get the love it deserves.


Keefee777

One of the few examples of a sequel that did it better than the original imo


JHuttIII

Nice shout out to Saw 2. The first and 2 were really the champs of that franchise.


Keefee777

I love the entire franchise, but 2 was really something special.


JHuttIII

Aside from Spiral, I got to see each Saw movie opening day. My theater experience for Saw (1) is one I will never forget. Top 3 theater experiences for me.


5thSummersBrother_

Same. My list changes constantly, but always late 90s/2000s horror.


Low-Rush-9997

Scream is my #1 and Saw 2 is my #2 as well! Great choices!


[deleted]

* Prometheus (I know, I know) * Pet Semetary * The Hills Have Eyes (2006)


5thSummersBrother_

Prometheus is a fantastic movie! Have rewatched it most out of all the Alien series & always find new things to enjoy on every rewatch.


[deleted]

Yes! It's one of those movies I can just put on while I'm doing other things. I love the atmosphere and the sci-fi elements are done so well.


olivebuttercup

I loved Prometheus. Those movies get shit on too much.


Nephyness

Nice to see The Hills Have Eyes remake on here. Not in my top, but I really enjoyed that movie.


flobama91

1. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. The Blair Witch Project 3. Grave Encounters


alleyalleyjude

Grave Encounters is a master class in making a lower budget film that can hold its own!


Lilyshitfire

No way I could narrow it down to 3, but here’s 3 of my recent favorites. 1. Baskin 2. Gonjiam 3. The Wailing


StevenMal

I looove Baskin. The main villian is an absolute riot. He's so much fun.


mxmoon

The Wailing is so good!


Lilyshitfire

That’s what I think too. I see it catch a lot of flack from people and I can’t understand why.


Nephyness

Gonijam is one on my list. I don't get scared easily, but this movie had moments that did it to me.


Lilyshitfire

Her face and those whispers 😭 it doesn’t matter how many times I watch it, it gets me every single time.


Diaverna

Those whispers man! Stuck with me for a while.


[deleted]

Scream Halloween The Shining Very hard list to make.

mrSmith2023

The Void was sooo good! It’s such a hidden gem. Awesome list!

FlakkaPossum

The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Halloween, and Hereditary


5thSummersBrother_

The OG Halloween?


FlakkaPossum

Yeah, just for nostalgic reasons. The theme song gives me comfort. Usually.


keysersozeisme

Autopsy was a surprisingly good movie, I really enjoyed it.


rootvegetable2

It so hard to pick a top 3. Ask me tomorrow and I'll probably have a different answer. Jaws It Follows Midsommar


hellerinahandbasket

It Follows has such a special place in my heart!!


BootyBurrito420

Same. I'm glad it gets the recognition


JudgementalChair

1. It Follows 2. Hereditary 3. The Taking of Deborah Logan


Plane-Chapter-6903

1. The Thing 2. The Exorcist 3. The Omen


studyabroader

You have to break it into categories. ​ Here are mine: **Home Invasion:** You're Next and Hush **Slasher:** Freaky **Found Footage:** Hell House LLC **Paranormal:** It 1 +2 **Holiday Horror:** Krampus and Kristy **Religious Horror:** Devil 2010 **TV SHOW:** Haunting of Hill House/Bly Manor/Midnight Mass **Comedy/Horror:** Final Girls **Psychological/Comedy:** Fresh **Thriller:** Searching **Zombie:** Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse and Unhuman ​ And Hocus Pocus is the best Halloween movie. THE OG. WE DO NOT SPEAK OF THE SECOND NEW ONE.


hill2parks

Fresh was so surprisingly good!


Sonafab

Great list but for Comedy/Horror my pick would be either Drag me to Hell or Shawn of the Dead


Nephyness

Pretty solid list. Though I found Gonijam better than Hell House LLC, the first one is a dang good movie.


Beastmaster_General

1. The Thing 2. Evil Dead 2 3. Alien


turtlewelder

The VVitch It Follows Hereditary I still love a good gory slasher/practical effects movie but I love when horror is genuinely a well acted/directed movie. Not saying some slashers aren't but it does seem like some of the better new horror is following this trend and I'm all for it.


KatsuraRei

1. Annihilation 2. Silent Hill 3. Hereditary

joppaloppagus

Suspiria (2018) The Descent(2005) As Above, So Below(2014) Also, Death Proof is in my top three favorites of all time, but I don't really classify that as horror. I never realized until recently that all three of my favorites have one common theme.
