If you're as big a horror fan as I am, chances are you've seen most (or all) of these already. The list is divided into thirteen categories, one film to each. Hopefully this will satisfy all the myriad desires there can be this Halloween.

    I don't know if I've seen 'From Dusk til Dawn' on many lists. Your list is great, old and new. Happy Halloweewn!

      I find DThompson's encyclopedic knowledge of horror films inherently disturbing. That stuff will rot your brain and make you vote republican.

            "Freaks"(1932) is a classic and really creepy. No one in this movie wore any special effects makeup.

              I have not seen that movie in a long time. I will have to see that movie again. Thanks Uncle Dave!

                I have only seen 10 (uncut, ALWAYS) of the 13...(I just got a disk of Nekromantik. Ick...) Still need to watch Feast, Slither, and Day of the Beast.

                One thing about Spirits of the Dead-

                The French version is much better for the first couple stories (Jane Fonda is actually speaking French) but for the "Toby Dammit" segment the English version is better since Terrence Stamp is actually speaking English.

                  I was really happy to finally get the uncut Cannibal Apocalypse (Cannibals in the Streets) so I can see John Saxon really biting those bikers... : )

                  It's sort of slow going, but I kind of like Deathdream-

                  "I heard you were killed in Viet Nam."

                  "I was..."

                  I have also found these films to be quite instructional when fighting the horror of the Neocons here on Propeller.

                      One of my favorites was "THE CHANGLING" with George C Scott

                      "This is one of those horror movies that can be scary without being bloody and gory. It simply relies on atmosphere and frightening, but subtle images to deliver its chills, and it works. I will never be able to understand that "R" rating mainly because there is only very mild profanity and there is no blood or gore. Anyway, I would recommend this film to anyone who enjoys a good scary ghost story."

                          Believe it or not, your truelly was a extra in a badly made horror movie made in the late 80s that went straight to video called Lone Wolf. Look at for a chubby skater punk with wild Cure like hair talking to cops, and there might be a part where my head actually gets knocked off...would be the first time.

                            They need to add the classic comedic horror flicks such as "The Evil Dead 1&2", and "Army of Darkness". Also, "I kill you I bury you I spit on your grave", "Dead Alive", and "Burial of the Rats".
