Coming up with a list of the best horror movies of all time is a good way to weed out♣ the scary movie veterans from the scaredy cats. You can spot 'em every time a jump scare happens, or a♣ devil-possessed girl crab walks upstairs, or an alien missiles out of some poor sucker's chest.
Okay, so we were more scared♣ than not when working on this list. Sue us! Using overall movie quality, impact on the genre, legacy potential, fright/creepy♣ factor and that mysterious quality known as Editor's Choice, we assembled a list of movies that guarantee you'll want to♣ sleep with the lights on.
Some of the movies here are more traditional horror fare, while others are just twisted and♣ creepy in a "permanently scarred for life" sorta way (e.g. The Silence of the Lambs). But all of them will♣ scare the living heck out of you. So enjoy, and fire off your own suggestions and faves in the comments!
The♣ 25 Best Horror Movies 26 Images
25. Scream (1996)
Director : Wes Craven
: Wes Craven Stars : Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David♣ Arquette
: Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, David Arquette Runtime: 111 mins
Both director Wes Craven and writer Kevin Williamson have plenty of♣ successes in their career, but Scream remains a big highlight for both men. Williamson's script managed to deftly be so♣ many things -- it was a sly meta/self-parody about the horror genre that didn't cross the line into goofiness, while♣ also playing as a successful whodunit and, most importantly, an effective horror film in and of itself.
Finally a group of♣ horror movie characters made it clear that yes, they'd seen all the same movies we had, and were aware of♣ the rules and clichés that come with the genre. But no one was more knowledgeable than the killer (or is♣ that killers?), who toyed with the victims by asking them horror movie trivia that plenty of us in the audience♣ could have fun playing along with.
But when the killer actually showed himself, it was terrifying, with several extremely well-executed suspense♣ scenes by Craven, which proved again just how good he was with this sort of material. A movie that set♣ out to simultaneously make the audience laugh, cheer and yes, scream, Scream deserves a lot of credit for pulling off♣ all these elements so well.
Scene to watch with the lights on: Scream's opening scene is incredibly strong and scary, instantly♣ grabbing the audience by the throat. Watching a high school girl (Drew Barrymore) get a series of increasingly ominous phone♣ calls, we (and she) begin to realize just how vulnerable she is. And that's when the guy with the ghost-faced♣ mask shows up...

24. Nosferatu (1922)
Director : F.W. Martin
: F.W. Martin Stars : Max Shcreck,♣ Alexander Granach, Gustav von Wangenheim
: Max Shcreck, Alexander Granach, Gustav von Wangenheim Runtime: 94 mins
Count Orlok is moving to Germany,♣ and he’s bringing pestilence and shadows with him. F.W. Murnau’s shameless rip-off of Bram Stoker’s Dracula does away with the♣ sensuality that many associate with the undead monster, revealing the vampire to be a sad and rat-like creature, tormented by♣ isolation and completely wrong for the modern world.
Murnau seems to have a queasy fixation on Orlok and his eery appetites,♣ and his movie paints them out with thick shadows and grotesque imagery. Max Schreck’s performance as the Count is so♣ bizarre and hypnotic that, years later, he stills ranks as one of the most iconic horror monsters. Indeed, the horror♣ genre is still using the language that Murnau helped invent with Nosferatu, and his film feels as deliriously creepy today♣ as it ever did.
Scene to watch with the lights on: Count Orlok’s last hurrah as he approaches a beautiful, sleeping♣ victim is an oft-imitated and, almost 100 years later, still very creepy moment.

23. The Blair Witch Project (1999)
Directors : Daniel Myrick, Eduardo Sánchez
: Daniel Myrick, Eduardo Sánchez Stars : Heather Donahue,♣ Michael C. Williams, Joshua Leonard
: Heather Donahue, Michael C. Williams, Joshua Leonard Runtime: 81 mins
The movie that gave birth to♣ the widespread "horror movie as faux-documentary" trend and that inspired such films as Paranormal Activity, The Blair Witch Project is♣ quite an effective scare fest in retrospect.
Some of its then-inspired choices in the realm of "is it or isn't real"♣ seem dated and obvious now, given the fact that the Internet seemingly sets out to reveal spoilers that surround projects♣ like this. (Also, we know it's all fiction at this point.) But Blair Witch came out in 1999, when the♣ Internet was in its infancy and could be used as a tool to successfully convince audiences that maybe the story♣ of a three-person documentary crew going snipe hunting for what turns out to be pure evil is in fact real.
Blame♣ the gift/curse of the shaky cam on this movie, but give it credit for delivering scares in such a way♣ that changed the way we like to be scared... and that changed the way Hollywood goes about making the things♣ that scare us.
Scene to watch with the lights on: A night in the woods full of tent shaking and lots♣ of screaming leads to a morning where one character discovers a nice gift-wrap of anatomy no longer attached to its♣ person.
22. Dracula (1931)
Directors : Tod Browning, Karl Freund
: Tod Browning, Karl Freund Stars : Bela Lugosi, Helen Chandler, David Manners
:♣ Bela Lugosi, Helen Chandler, David Manners Runtime: 75 mins
All of today's mega-popular vampire franchises owe a debt of gratitude to♣ Count Dracula. And as much as Bram Stoker's original novel helped popularize the vampire story, it was Universal's 1931 adaptation♣ that cemented the image of Dracula in the minds of most moviegoers.
Dracula condenses and combines many of the main characters♣ from the novel, opening with the poor Mr. Renfield's arrival in Transylvania. After falling victim to Dracula's influence, the pair♣ head to London so Dracula can feast on the city's inhabitants. Only the courageous Dr. Seward, his ally Professor Van♣ Helsing, and their friends can prevent Dracula from slaughtering innocents and making the fair Mina his newest bride.
Dracula isn't the♣ scariest film by modern standards (though the alternate Spanish cut is superior in that regard). What it does have is♣ plenty of atmosphere and a very memorable take on the lead villain. This adaptation diverged from the source by making♣ Dracula a handsome, charismatic figure, and Bela Lugosi captured the imaginations of millions with his performance as Dracula. For better♣ or worse, it was a role that would follow him for the rest of his life. And it remains the♣ definitive portrayal of this classic villain for many.
Scene to watch with the lights on: Renfield's midnight ride is full of♣ dramatic tension as he meets the world's creepiest carriage driver. By the time he finally arrives at the castle and♣ is introduced to its master, he and the viewer are much worse for wear.
21. 28 Days Later (2002)
Director : Danny♣ Boyle
: Danny Boyle Stars : Cillian Murphy, Naomie Harris, Christopher Eccleston
: Cillian Murphy, Naomie Harris, Christopher Eccleston Runtime: 113 mins
The♣ zombie genre is bigger than ever now, and you have 28 Days Later to thank for it. The genre was♣ practically dead by the time Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland gave zombies a much needed shot of adrenaline with♣ this film. Seriously, this movie is pumped up on adrenaline. The zombies -- er, sorry, “infected” -- sprint through the♣ movie, spawning endless debates about whether “fast zombies” are scarier than “slow zombies.” As if that’s the important thing.
What mattered♣ most is that 28 Days Later was more than a visceral horror experience. A great cast and a smart script♣ treated the concept with sincerity and severity, and Boyle’s digital cinematography gave the film an immediacy that hadn’t been matched♣ at that time. If zombies -- sigh, “infected” -- did take over the Earth, this is surely what it would♣ look and feel like. And it would be terrifying.
Scene to watch with the lights on: When Cillian Murphy finds his♣ way into a church and starts to realize what’s really been going on since he woke up.
20. The Fly (1986)
Director♣ : David Cronenberg
: David Cronenberg Stars : Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, John Getz
: Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, John Getz Runtime:♣ 96 mins
David Cronenberg's very R-rated, very intense and very excellent remake of The Fly puts Jeff Goldblum in the role♣ of Seth Brundle, a scientist who invents telepods meant to change the world. Instead, they change him into a man-fly♣ monster when a fly accidentally gets trapped in one of the machines as Seth teleports from one pod to the♣ other.
The script, performances and Howard Shore's tremendous score work together to create a horror opera, one full of dark twists♣ and practical creature effects scares. Once all the gore and vomiting-on-food-to-eat-it settles, we realize we've just watched a tragedy about♣ a scientist who accounted for everything save nature finding a way to remind man not to play God. (Kind of♣ fitting that Goldblum learned this lesson here and again in Jurassic Park, no?)
Scene to watch with the lights on: Brundlefly♣ inspecting a medicine cabinet-turned-museum of pieces of the man-fly that his new insect body doesn't need anymore. (Give yourself a♣ gold star if you can spot his mason-jarred junk or if you don't wince at the moment before this scene,♣ where Seth peels off his fingernails.)
19. An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Director : John Landis
: John Landis Stars : David♣ Naughton, Jenny Agutter, Joe Belcher
: David Naughton, Jenny Agutter, Joe Belcher Runtime: 97 mins
It rarely hurts to merge horror with♣ a tinge of comedy, and John Landis' An American Werewolf in London is one of the finer examples of that♣ combination. It's also one of several iconic werewolf movies that hit theaters in 1981. Of the trio, American Werewolf remains♣ the most popular and well-loved.
The film begins with two backpackers traveling the English countryside. When only one survives an attack♣ by a vicious wolf, he becomes convinced he's been infected by the werewolf's curse. And it wouldn't be much of♣ a werewolf movie if he turned out to be wrong.
An American Werewolf in London stood out at the time thanks♣ to its amazing makeup and special effects work; never had the werewolf transformation seemed so convincing. The humor didn't hurt♣ either. And then there’s the brilliantly demented nightmare sequences. But American Werewolf was ultimately a tragic horror film, and one♣ certainly deserving of remembrance today.
Scene to watch with the lights on: American Werewolf's iconic transformation scene is a showcase for♣ just how grotesque and painful the werewolf curse can be. When David wolfs out, what ensues is a graphic transformation♣ of man into werewolf. This all-too convincing display of special effects and makeup work from 1981 still holds up today.
18.♣ Let the Right One In (2008)
Director : Tomas Alfredson
: Tomas Alfredson Stars : Kåre Hedebrant, Lina Leandersson, Per Ragnar
: Kåre♣ Hedebrant, Lina Leandersson, Per Ragnar Runtime: 114 mins
Can you believe that there's a movie on our list that got its♣ title from a Morrissey song? This most unusual of love stories is a Swedish film which hit it big internationally♣ with its tale of a 12-year-old boy and his centuries-old vampire... who looks like a 12-year-old girl (but most certainly♣ isn't).
Whether or not Oskar and Eli's relationship is an equal partnership, or Oskar is doomed to become the vampire's next♣ Hakan (the old and ill-fated human who takes care of Eli early in the film) isn't clear. But it's an♣ engrossing story from start to finish.
Though chock-full of bloody good horror moments, director Tomas Alfredson's film works so well because♣ it is acutely interested in its two lead characters: Oskar, the boy who is bullied at school and finds a♣ protector in his new, nocturnal neighbor; and Eli, a beautiful little cherub who's actually not even a girl and certainly♣ not a cherub. Weird, right? But so good.
Scene to watch with the lights on: This may be a controversial pick♣ (and a spoilery one), but we'd have to go with the closing moments of the film, as Oskar and Eli♣ head off for a new life together as friends and/or love interests. Or as master and slave? You decide, but♣ it is creepy either way.
17. Suspiria (1977)
Director : Dario Argento
: Dario Argento Stars : Jessica Harper, Stefania Casini, Flavio Bucci
:♣ Jessica Harper, Stefania Casini, Flavio Bucci Runtime: 92 mins
Of course we're including a giallo film on this list, though the♣ question did come up as to which of the Italian horror masters was most deserving to represent this distinctive genre.♣ In the end, we had to give it to Dario Argento and his Suspiria -- a supernatural shocker that is♣ an experience in style as well as terror.
The film is about an American ballerina who travels to Germany to attend♣ a dance academy, but instead gets a tutu full of trouble when she comes to realize that the place is♣ home to a coven of witches who are brewing up all kinds of deadly mischief.
The picture might seem over the♣ top in some ways, but Argento proves masterful at creating an environment and a world that is uniquely its own♣ thing. The gruesome, convoluted killings, the garish color design, the freaked-out sound (including a haunting score by Goblin)... this is♣ the stuff that nightmares are made of and one of the best witch movies ever made.
Scene to watch with the♣ lights on: Don't even bother turning the lights off, since the film gets right to it with a double murder♣ early on that sees one young lady staring out a window into the dark, only to suddenly realize that a♣ pair of eyes are staring back. This leads to stabbings, a hanging and, finally, impalement by stained glass for her♣ and her friend.
16. Dawn of the Dead (2004)
Director : Zack Snyder
: Zack Snyder Stars : Sarah Polley, Ving Rhames, Mekhi♣ Phifer
: Sarah Polley, Ving Rhames, Mekhi Phifer Runtime: 101 mins
George Romero practically created the zombie movie genre single-handedly in 1968♣ with Night of the Living Dead. Ten years later he refined the formula with Dawn of the Dead. Far bigger,♣ gorier, and funnier than its predecessor, Dawn of the Dead remains Romero's definitive work.
Whereas Night featured a small cast of♣ survivors holed up in a remote farmhouse, Dawn opens with a glimpse of a major metropolitan area falling to chaos♣ during the zombie outbreak. It isn't long before our four heroes are forced to leave town and barricade themselves inside♣ a shopping mall. But as it turns out, the undead hordes still retain enough of their old selves to feel♣ the need to shop and consume.
The true brilliance of Dawn is how it combined straight-up zombie carnage with a healthy♣ dose of satire and social commentary. At the end of the day, are modern Americans really so different from the♣ shambling undead? They crave warm flesh; we crave iPhones.
Scene to watch with the lights on: When Roger finally succumbs to♣ his bite wounds, it’s a tragic moment that really drives home what our characters have lost in this world.
15. A♣ Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
Director : Wes Craven
: Wes Craven Stars : Heather Langenkamp, Johnny Depp, Robery Englund
: Heather Langenkamp,♣ Johnny Depp, Robery Englund Runtime: 91 mins
By 1984, the slasher movies had been done to death (excuse the pun). Just♣ how many masked killers could you see before fatigue set in? But Wes Craven had a brilliant twist on these♣ types of films. First, he created a killer, Freddy Krueger, who instantly stood out from the rest of the pack.♣ His face was burned beyond recognition, but Freddy wore no mask and didn't stay silent.
In fact, he had plenty of♣ cruel taunts for his victims. More importantly, his domain was the dream world, where he could stalk and terrorize without♣ any rules to bind him -- if you ran away from him, he could just as easily be waiting for♣ you as you approached. There was nowhere to hide from Freddy because we all have to sleep sometime, right?
Featuring a♣ more down to Earth and relatable group of young characters than most slasher films, A Nightmare on Elm Street made♣ a huge impact upon its release, thanks to its excellent conceit and amazing villain, and Craven's talent at building tension♣ and delivering the goods in his murder scenes. And with Freddy, Craven gave us one of the most popular, durable♣ and recognizable horror movie villains of all time.
Scene to watch with the lights on: When Freddy gets a hold of♣ Tina in her dream, we suddenly realize just how big the stakes are, as her sleeping body is pulled up♣ into the air, and four fatal cuts rip into her. The fact that she's dragged along the ceiling, screaming, before♣ she dies, as her boyfriend looks on in horror, only adds to the shock of the scene.
See our guide to♣ the Nightmare on Elm Street movies in order.
14. Poltergeist (1982)
Director : Tobe Hooper
: Tobe Hooper Stars : JoBeth Williams, Heather♣ O'Rourke, Craig T. Nelson
: JoBeth Williams, Heather O'Rourke, Craig T. Nelson Runtime: 114 mins
After Poltergeist, all of a sudden quaint♣ cookie-cutter houses everywhere became haunted death-traps, ravaged by violent Native American ghosts who weren't too pleased about their current state♣ of "unrest."
Director Tobe Hooper and producer Steven Spielberg created a veritable masterwork that took the ghost story out of ancient♣ castles and haunted mansions and shoved it, without apology, into the happy suburban track home.
Almost every single part of this♣ movie is so full of devastating win -- from Carol Ann's warbled white-noise voice to freakin' angry trees that bust♣ through your window to grab you -- that one is almost able to forgive the less-than-warranted sequels. This house may♣ now be "clean," but your pants are going to need changing.
Scene to watch with the lights on: Man. Just pick♣ anything. How about the guy who tears his own face apart or the malicious clown doll that loves to strangle♣ or the vengeful zombies coming out of the swimming pool? This movie will hit you from every direction and leave♣ you cowering in the corner.
13. The Thing (1982)
Director : John Carpenter
: John Carpenter Stars : Kurt Russel, Wilford Brimley, Keith♣ David
: Kurt Russel, Wilford Brimley, Keith David Runtime: 109 mins
An alien with the ability to take the form of any♣ life that it absorbs infiltrates an Antarctic research base, and soon the 12-man team is up to their eyeballs in♣ slaughter, suspicion and paranoia. John Carpenter's film has itself planted on either side of the horror and sci-fi movie lines.
The♣ Thing plays fair within both genres, but leans more toward horror. The movie takes its time setting up the rules♣ of the creature living amongst our heroes, while more importantly establishing each character -- from Windows to MacReady to MacReady's♣ beard -- as people we actually worry about.
The practical special effects hold up better than you'd think, and Kurt Russell♣ gives one of his best performances as team leader MacReady. But really, the entire ensemble is excellent as each character♣ comes to realize that all is not what it seems in their camp. And that ending! We’re still arguing about♣ what it really means all these years later.
Scene to watch with the lights on: The scariest bit involves the Thing♣ assimilating dogs and revealing a mouth (best described as a flower made out of tongue petals) moments before it slime-claws♣ its way out of sight.
12. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)
Director : Tobe Hooper
: Tobe Hooper Stars : Marilyn Burns,♣ Edwin Neal, Allen Danziger
: Marilyn Burns, Edwin Neal, Allen Danziger Runtime: 83 mins
Like your films bleak, bloody and full of♣ brutality? Tobe Hooper's gruesome 1974 indie flick took the nefarious inbred mountain folk that we all cringed at in 1972's♣ Deliverance and turned them into an aggressively insane backwoods clan of cannibals. Take a van full of "young adults" on♣ their way to, let’s say, smoke weed and hang out at a cemetery, and let them run out of gas♣ in the wrong part of Texas. Then throw in the skin-suited Leatherface and some meat-hooks and you've got yourself a♣ film that barely found a distributor because of its extreme levels of graphic violence.
Psycho might have been the first "slasher"♣ film per se, but The Texas Chainsaw Massacre simultaneously elevated and de-elevated the genre with its disturbing levels of sadism.
Scene♣ to watch with the lights on: It might not be the moment you immediately think of, but the two-minute-long scene♣ where poor Sally is forced to "dine" with Leatherface's family where she's tied to a chair made out of human♣ parts and they all just laugh at her screaming is pretty disturbing!
11. Rosemary's Baby (1968)
Director : Roman Polanski
: Roman Polanski♣ Stars : Mia Farrow, John Cassavetes, Ruth Gordon
: Mia Farrow, John Cassavetes, Ruth Gordon Runtime: 137 mins
Get over Mia Farrow's♣ bad haircut and watch this movie. You'll be surprised how much this unsettling creepshow from 1968 gets away with for,♣ you know, being in 1968. Roman Polanski's most "conventional" film outside of Chinatown is one of his best, telling the♣ slow-burn story of a young New York couple who move into an apartment building... which happens to be home to♣ several Satan worshipers who want to use Rosemary's spawn as a means for Mr. Devil McBrimstone to enter our mortal♣ realm.
Farrow is perfect in the role of Rosemary, as she slowly unravels the more she discovers what shady cult dealings♣ are happening all around her. The entire world seems to be conspiring against the most innocent of people here, as♣ the devil watches from the wings and Rosemary breaks down.
Polanski's lean approach to delivering chills further supports the storytelling rule♣ that the more kept off screen, the more the audience has to imagine, and hence, the scarier.
Scene to watch with♣ the lights on: When Rosemary finally gets to meet her baby.
10. Night of the Living Dead (1968)
Director : George A.♣ Romero
: George A. Romero Stars : Duane Jones
: Duane Jones Runtime: 96 mins
In 1968, director George Romero took the frightening♣ idea of "zombification," which up until that point had been relegated to creepy voodoo tales and extra-dimensional Lovecraft-ian lore, and♣ created a terrifying new genre of horror: the zombie apocalypse film. "They're coming to get you Barbara" became the first♣ official "I'll be back" of horror, as poor Judith O'Dea has to flee a cemetery because the dead have inexplicably♣ come back to life and started walking the Earth in search of human flesh.
Hitchcock discovered, with 1963's The Birds, that♣ the sheer terror of "not knowing" the reasons behind the sweeping global outbreak of evil can be the most horrifying♣ part of the entire story. The "Zombocalypse" genre is so enduring that it's still going strong today (hello, Walking Dead♣ fans...). Sure, some films have made their zombies run fast and tried to explain the whole dead-alive deal with a♣ virus, and that's all fine. But nothing will ever beat the basics.
With this one film, Romero was able to tap♣ into so many things we're afraid of: death, desecration of the flesh, cannibalism, brainwashing, disease and hopelessness. There's also a♣ stinging underlying social message about racism, media and paranoia where viewers got to learn that they could be just as♣ dangerous and cruel as the mindless hordes of undead they were hiding from.
Scene to watch with the lights on: The♣ end, when our hero Ben finally makes it out of the farmhouse.
9. Evil Dead II (1987)
Director : Sam Raimi
: Sam♣ Raimi Stars : Bruce Campbell, Sarah Berry, Dan Hicks
: Bruce Campbell, Sarah Berry, Dan Hicks Runtime: 84 mins
Though more of♣ a "remix" than a sequel, Evil Dead II improves on its predecessor in almost every way. More gore, more comedy,♣ more, more, more…
Director Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell (and Ash!) returned to the woods after six years for Evil Dead♣ II, which leans into the gruesome excess of the first but ups the ante to a ridiculous degree (this was♣ the one where an eyeball flies into a person’s open mouth). Though Evil Dead II didn't invent splat-stick, it sure♣ did perfect it, and went on to influence countless other comedy gross-outs. (Also see 16 Things You May Not Know♣ About Evil Dead).
And yet, for all the fun grotesqueries on display, Raimi still manages to chill and scare his audience♣ plenty with stylish and over-the-top antics. Check out Henrietta peeping in on things from the basement, or Ash’s brief turn♣ as a Deadite himself (before he’s saved by a fortuitously timed rising sun). Groovy.
Scene to watch with the lights on:♣ Ash’s farewell to his girlfriend Linda will have you in pieces. Or her, anyway.
8. The Silence of the Lambs (1991)
Director♣ : Jonathan Demme
: Jonathan Demme Stars : Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, Lawrence A. Bonney
: Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins, Lawrence A.♣ Bonney Runtime: 118 mins
Using a serial-killer cannibal with a doctorate to help catch another serial killer is as bare bones♣ as you can get with this Best Picture Oscar winner. But the movie is much more than that. It's the♣ scariest movie ever made built around psychology and deduction, with both used as crime-solving tools and murder weapons. Yes, blame♣ this movie all you want for your friend's bad Hannibal Lecter impersonation that never seems to get better, but it♣ gave us one of the screen's all-time iconic villains and Anthony Hopkins the role of his career.
Jodie Foster is also♣ exceptional as FBI Agent Clarice Starling, on the trail of Buffalo "It Puts the Lotion in the Basket" Bill. Director♣ Jonathan Demme is effortless and relentless with his tension here, succeeding where Ridley Scott failed in his 2001 sequel, Hannibal,♣ by keeping Lecter more of a believable monster and less of a monstrous caricature.
We suggest watching The Silence of the♣ Lambs with some fava beans and a nice chianti. Check out our list of the best 90s horror movies for♣ more like this.
Scene to watch with the lights on: Lecter's first encounter with Clarice -- his crazy and her virtue♣ are separated only by safety glass.
7. Jaws (1975)
Director : Steven Spielberg
: Steven Spielberg Stars : Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard♣ Dreyfuss
: Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss Runtime: 124 mins
The first blockbuster ever and the scariest movie (maybe even the♣ best one?) Spielberg's ever made, Jaws is equal parts shark movie and character piece, centered on an island called Amity♣ that's preyed upon by something that leaves teeth the size of shot glasses in the hulls of boats and turns♣ their owners into decapitated flotsam. The late Roy Scheider gives a career-defining performance as Chief Brody, the local sheriff with♣ a fear of water who is put in charge of taking down the murder fish.
Joining him on the Orca for♣ the hunt are Richard Dreyfuss' Hooper and Robert "Find 'im for three, catch 'im and kill 'im for 10" Shaw♣ as Quint, the number one cause of death for just about any marine life.
But you already know that. You should♣ have seen this movie at least 10 times by now, thanks to cable and VHS and DVD and Blu-ray and♣ streaming. You've probably contemplated making John Williams' theme your ring tone. It's made out of the type of movie magic♣ that warrants repeat viewings.
Scene to watch with the lights on: It's a tie! When the shark turns Alex Kintner into♣ a human chew toy… or when Bad Hat Harry stands before Brody, wearing a bathing suit and shaking his saggy♣ gym-sock moobs.
6. Alien (1979)
Director : Ridley Scott
: Ridley Scott Stars : Sigourney Weaver, Tom Skerritt, John Hurt
: Sigourney Weaver, Tom♣ Skerritt, John Hurt Runtime: 117 mins
Alien movies are generally thought of as being planted in the science fiction realm. However,♣ with the original at least, Alien was as much a horror film as a sci-fi one. With a small cast♣ being hunted by a lone, terrifying creature, Alien was a long way removed from the Star Wars and Star Treks♣ of Hollywood.
The film is set several centuries in the future when humanity has ventured into the stars. The crew of♣ the mining vessel Nostromo become unwitting hosts to a bloodthirsty alien lifeform, and one by one they fall to an♣ enemy that hides in the shadows and springs from above. Only Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) is savvy enough to survive the♣ alien's onslaught. Too bad for her it was only the first round.
Alien doesn't resemble many sci-fi movies of the time.♣ Artist H.R. Giger designed a world full of twisted tubes, cold hallways, and pervasive darkness. Before Alien, pop culture never♣ warned us how dark, dirty and scary the cold depths of space were. Director Ridley Scott adopted a "less is♣ more" approach that later sequels sadly abandoned; modern directors can cram all the Aliens and Predators (and Michael Fassbender androids)♣ they want into their films, but none can match the sheer claustrophobic terror generated in the original film.
Scene to watch♣ with the lights on: Dinner with Kane and the crew of the Nostromo, fresh after Kane wakes up from his♣ facehugger coma, ends with Kane disagreeing with something that ate its way out of his chest. They don't get much♣ better than this, movie fans.

5. The Bride of Frankenstein♣ (1935)
Director : James Whale
: James Whale Stars : Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester, Colin Clive
: Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester, Colin Clive♣ Runtime: 75 mins
Certainly there were those of us on the IGN staff who argued that this James Whale classic should've♣ been higher on our list -- perhaps even number one. But compromise being what it is, director James Whale, Colin♣ Clive, Boris Karloff and the rest have had to settle for fifth place.
The film is the apex of the Universal♣ cycle of classic monster pictures in terms of quality. Rather than simply regurgitating a cheap variation on the first Frankenstein♣ (which is basically what many of the Universal sequels would go on to do), Whale opted to, ahem, flesh out♣ the story and characters of the original (which he also directed). Karloff, in his second turn as the Monster, granted♣ his most famous creation the gift of speech here, and of friendship, and even love. Also, of humor -- Bride♣ of Frankenstein is a comedy as much as it is a horror film.
Brimming with wonderful side characters (oh, Doctor Pretorius,♣ how we miss you) and often unsettling imagery (Jesus H. Christ, did they just crucify the Monster?), the film is♣ over 80 years old and we're still talking about it -- and loving it. To paraphrase Doctor Pretorius, "It is♣ our only weakness"
Scene to watch with the lights on: The finale, when the Bride is finally created only to spurn♣ the Monster, which is a very bad thing to do for anyone who values not getting blown up in an♣ exploding mountainside laboratory.
4. Halloween (1978)
Director : John Carpenter
: John Carpenter Stars : Donald Pleasance, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tony Moran
: Donald♣ Pleasance, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tony Moran Runtime: 91 mins
Psycho can be seen as the film that birthed the slasher genre,♣ and Texas Chain Saw Massacre was an integral step in its progress, making things more visceral. But it was Halloween♣ that truly defined this subgenre in horror, inspiring a million sequels, rip-offs, imitations and homages. Take an instantly identifiable holiday,♣ add in a chillingly silent, unstoppable masked killer and a feisty, resourceful heroine and you have Halloween... and of course♣ all the films that came after it.
But John Carpenter brought a sense of tension and suspense few others could match♣ in a slasher film, as we watched Michael Myers stalk Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis) from afar, before going on♣ his inevitable killing spree.
Michael himself is an excellent villain, wearing a blank, emotionless mask that perfectly captured the black soul♣ of someone who simply killed and killed, and seemingly couldn't be stopped, no matter what you did to him. It's♣ no wonder Michael became a horror icon and that fans rebelled when he didn't appear in Halloween III. After all,♣ Michael Myers and Halloween -- both the film and the actual holiday -- are now forever intertwined.
Scene to watch with♣ the lights on: Laurie Strode is trying to hide from Michael Myers, and crouches down inside a closet. She manages♣ to tie the door shut, but that's not going to stop Michael, who begins smashing the door in, causing light♣ to shine in and for Michael's spooky mask to come into plain view of the understandably terrified Laurie.
See our guide♣ to the Halloween movies in order.
3. Psycho (1960)

Psycho is both one of the greatest thrillers of all time♣ and one of the greatest entries in Alfred Hitchcock's legendary resume. A true master of suspense and tension, Hitchcock crafted♣ a memorable horror experience with a limited cast and even more limited budget. Like so many great horror movies, Psycho's♣ scares far exceed its limited scale.
The film tells the story of crazy old Norman Bates and his even crazier mother.♣ When a young woman on the run from the law arrives at the remote Bates Motel, she falls victim to♣ a knife-wielding killer. Several more victims are claimed before the true secret of the Bates family stands revealed.
The content of♣ Psycho isn't as shocking as it was way back in 1960. After all, girls get stabbed in the shower all♣ the time in modern horror cinema. However, it's a testament to Hitchcock's skill as a director that Psycho remains a♣ tense and nerve-wracking experience. The killing of Janet Leigh's character and the accompanying musical key by Bernard Herrmann is one♣ of the most famous scenes in Hollywood history.
Psycho is such a classic of the genre that it inspired a shot-for-shot♣ remake in 1998. It's also had sequels and a TV show based on the tale.
Scene to watch with the lights♣ on: What scene could we pick but the quintessential shower slaying? Coupled with that amazing music cue, it remains a♣ horror classic almost 60 years later.
2. The Exorcist (1973)
Director : William Friedkin
: William Friedkin Stars : Ellen Burstyn, Max von♣ Sydow, Linda Blair
: Ellen Burstyn, Max von Sydow, Linda Blair Runtime: 122 mins
"Tubular Bells" is the scariest music arrangement ever♣ made. We hear it and we're the shaking-in-our-boots equivalent of Pavlov's Dog.
The movie's premise -- a little girl possessed by♣ a demon -- is scary enough as words on paper. But what director William Friedkin does with it, aside from♣ prove that he has a seriously strong (or frightfully off) constitution for this sort of stuff, is treat the extraordinary♣ of it all as if it were really happening next door to us.
The scares come from a place based in♣ faith, where Heaven and hell are as real as your beliefs in them care to be. Faith, for all the♣ documentation on the subject, is tethered to the intangible; it's not something science can define or strategize. The demon that♣ comes from The Exorcist's interpretation of that idea is something more powerful than a Freddy or a Jason. Something that♣ can't be shot or stabbed or detonated.
Before it can be attacked, let alone defeated, it has to first be believed♣ in -- as terrible and soul-threatening as this may be to the young priest and old priest charged with delivering♣ the climatic exorcism. Fathers Karras and Merrin spend the third act of the movie fighting back the devil for control♣ of young Regan's soul. And in doing so, Karras, a man of wavering faith throughout most of the movie, finally♣ believes in the only true good he knows by sacrificing himself to save that little girl.
Film-school analyze this movie more♣ if you want. Bottom line: It is the best horror movie about the consequences of belief ever made.
Scene to watch♣ with the lights on: All of it. No no no, trust us. Watch it at mid-day, with the blinds open♣ and the lights on. And then get used to the fact that you may never, ever sleep again.
1. The Shining♣ (1980)
Director : Stanley Kubrick
: Stanley Kubrick Stars : Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd
: Jack Nicholson, Shelley Duvall, Danny Lloyd♣ Runtime: 146 mins
The Shining might just be Stephen King's most popular horror novel. Stanley Kubrick's movie adaptation is almost certainly♣ the most popular Stephen King movie. The project was an unusually commercially-focused one for Kubrick, but the same stylistic elements♣ that defined his earlier films were on full display, and the film remains a haunting and unsettling chronicle of a♣ family man's psychological breakdown.
Jack Nicholson is iconic as Jack Torrance, the struggling writer who accepts a job as winter caretaker♣ for the Overlook Hotel in the Colorado Mountains. The knowledge that the previous caretaker had gone insane and murdered his♣ family fails to scare Jack away. But when both Jack and his psychically attuned son begin communing with the many♣ spirits haunting the Overlook, things quickly take a turn for the worse. Deadly hedge mazes, elevators full of blood and♣ the terrifying Room 237 are only some of the horrors that await viewers.
Aside from being a genuinely scary film, The♣ Shining has left its mark on modern pop culture. Who doesn't recognize the image of Nicholson poking his head through♣ a doorway and shouting "Here's Johnny!"? The Shining also served as fodder for one of the best "Treehouse of Horror"♣ segments in the history of The Simpsons.
The film is required viewing for any horror aficionado -- just don't expect to♣ sleep easily that night -- and our pick for the best horror movie ever made.
Scene to watch with the lights♣ on: "The blood usually gets off on the third floor." May we also suggest the Room 237 scene. Beware of♣ women in bathtubs that are really Overlook corpses!
