- DirectorFrancis Ford CoppolaStarsGary OldmanWinona RyderAnthony HopkinsThe centuries old vampire Count Dracula comes to England to seduce his barrister Jonathan Harker's fiancée Mina Murray and inflict havoc in the foreign land.10/10
Gary Oldman in one of his best roles ever! Stunning cinematography. - DirectorStanley KubrickStarsJack NicholsonShelley DuvallDanny LloydA family heads to an isolated hotel for the winter where a sinister presence influences the father into violence, while his psychic son sees horrific forebodings from both past and future.9/10
Made by one of the truly greatest directors of all time, Kubrick`s contribution to the horror-genre. Maybe Jack Nicholson in his most memorable role. Seeing this when I was 10 years old made quite an impression. One of a handful movies that have scared me in my life. Here`s Johnny!! - DirectorWilliam FriedkinStarsEllen BurstynMax von SydowLinda BlairWhen a young girl is possessed by a mysterious entity, her mother seeks the help of two Catholic priests to save her life.9/10
A classic and one of my top favorite in the genre! - DirectorRichard DonnerStarsGregory PeckLee RemickHarvey StephensMysterious deaths surround an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the Antichrist? The Devil's own son?9/10
The scene in the zoo is amazing! According to some or someone in the movie crew, it was something strange happening with the animals. Something freaked many of them over, especially the monkeys! - DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsKurt RussellWilford BrimleyKeith DavidA research team in Antarctica is hunted by a shape-shifting alien that assumes the appearance of its victims.9/10
John Carpenter`s best movie. Seen this many times, and will be seen again despite the endless number of unseen movies in the collection! - DirectorRidley ScottStarsSigourney WeaverTom SkerrittJohn HurtThe crew of a commercial spacecraft encounters a deadly lifeform after investigating a mysterious transmission of unknown origin.9/10
- DirectorRobin HardyStarsEdward WoodwardChristopher LeeDiane CilentoA puritan police sergeant arrives in a Scottish island village in search of a missing girl, who the pagan locals claim never existed.9/10
A classic I discovered by chance after a dvd shopping spree. Great movie with a surprising ending, and the horror legend Christopher Lee. If this should be regarded as a horror movie, is up for discussion... - DirectorKim Jee-woonStarsLee Byung-hunChoi Min-sikJeon Gook-hwanA secret agent exacts revenge on a serial killer through a series of captures and releases.9/10
A crazy and extreme revenge flick with some disturbing scenes which most likely will leave a mark. Since the 1990s South Korea have produced some movies with shocking and unforgetful scenes like in The Isle, Oldboy, Sympathy for Mr Vengeance, and now this one. When it comes to revenge theme, this is one of my favorites. - DirectorAlfred HitchcockStarsAnthony PerkinsJanet LeighVera MilesA Phoenix secretary embezzles $40,000 from her employer's client, goes on the run and checks into a remote motel run by a young man under the domination of his mother.9/10
This made history and shocked many when it was released! The story doesn`t follow the conventional storyline and can only be seen as innovative and unique in Hollywood`s movie business at the time. One of Hitchcock`s best movies. - DirectorRoman PolanskiStarsMia FarrowJohn CassavetesRuth GordonA young couple trying for a baby moves into an aging, ornate apartment building on Central Park West, where they find themselves surrounded by peculiar neighbors.9/10
- DirectorRobert RodriguezEli RothQuentin TarantinoStarsKurt RussellRose McGowanDanny TrejoQuentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's homage to exploitation double features in the '60s and '70s with two back-to-back cult films that include previews of coming attractions between them.9/10

A classic based on a Stephen King novella, with a memorable end scene that made me jump! One of the top 5 movies made by Brian de Palma and brilliant acting by Piper Laurie. - DirectorTobe HooperStarsMarilyn BurnsEdwin NealAllen DanzigerFive friends head out to rural Texas to visit the grave of a grandfather. On the way they stumble across what appears to be a deserted house, only to discover something sinister within. Something armed with a chainsaw.8/10
- DirectorJoel SchumacherStarsJason PatricCorey HaimDianne WiestAfter moving to a new town, two brothers discover that the area is a haven for vampires.8/10
Saw this many times when I was little, which probably influence my rating, but either way I still like it. Have some good music in the soundtrack, and Kiefer Sutherland looks creepy. - DirectorTakashi ShimizuStarsMegumi OkinaMisaki ItôMisa UeharaA mysterious and vengeful spirit marks and pursues anybody who dares enter the house in which it resides.8/10
