Love your list. Actually I'm surprised how many of the 25 I've seen, and most of them with you ;-). Definitely agree with The Sixth Sense being there, in fact it's on my Top 10 favourite movies of all time, as is The Others, which I watched with you and George when you were quite young. George was very young, as I remember it. We watched it with the lights off. He was sitting on the sofa next to me and I could tell he was shaking like a leaf. Or maybe he was still and it was me shaking like a leaf ;-). I'm still amazed it's only a 12A rating. The Shining: Yes! That's in my Top 10 and probably Top 5 of best movies ever. I had to check just now that Nicholson did indeed improvise the line, referencing Ed McMahon's catchphrase from The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, and it's true.
@@IKP1000 yes I realise we have seen a lot together! Sixth sense I’m long overdue a rewatch I love that film. Bea and I watched the Others last night, it still really holds up! I remember how scary it was seeing it a young age and to be honest it’s not one I laugh at now wondering how I was scared, I genuinely still think it’s a very dark and scary movie as you say especially for a 12A. The Shining is just perfection!
Really good list, I do agree with the top five, I actually think Hereditary is the scariest movie thats come out in a very long time (maybe ever)/agree with the Ari Aster fanboying, and love seeing American Werewolf + Jeepers included, underrated horrors imo Surprised that Talk to Me isn't included though! That would easily make my top ten horrors, also would of thought you'd be including the Substance
Hereditary must be! I often see people online say Hereditary isn’t anywhere near the scariest but then don’t go on to say which movie is. Those both would have probably made my top 30! I was deliberating for a while it’s so hard to narrow down the lists. I could do a top 100 and we’d still be talking about great horror haha
For me: 25.) Poltergeist (1982) 24.) Dead-Alive (1992) 23.) Pumpkinhead (1988) 22.) The Hitcher (1986) 21.) The Fly (1986) 20.) Dracula (1992) 19.) Day of the Dead (1985) 18.) Halloween (1978) 17.) Black Christmas (1974) 16.) IT (2017) 15.) The Mist (2007) 14.) Misery (1990) 13.) Candyman (1992) 12.) Psycho (1960) 11.) The Omen (1976) 10.) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) 09.) Hellraiser (1987) 08.) Scream (1996) 07.) Saw (2004) 06.) The Evil Dead (1981) 05.) The Exorcist (1973) 04.) A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) 03.) Alien (1979) 02.) The Thing (1982) 01.) Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives (1986)
Nice list, a lot of these would actually make my top 50 list if I were to make that. Particularly love Candyman, Evil dead and Misery. One on your list I still haven't seen but need to is Day of the Dead
@@joshuanelson6795 Interesting, I will get to it. My favourite from his that I've seen would be Night of the living dead I think, always preferred it to Dawn
@@jackpetriereviews More people would probably agree with you than me. By the way, what's your favorite Friday the 13th movie, if you don't mind me asking?
Shocked to see Scream at number 2, I thought it would be your number 1 for sure! Great list, I’ve seen most of these but interested in The Others!
@@beasear so tough to decide between the 2! Two perfect horror movies in my mind

@@jackpetriereviews Day of the Dead has always been my favorite George A. Romero film, though that seems to be a relatively unpopular opinion.
