    Stephen King movies are the scariest one's but Halloween is the most action packed movie on the list, that's why it is number one.

    Great list, great lens, but you are missing some topnotch goodies. Here's my suggestions; Dog Soldiers, Dagon, Candyman, Cube, the original Japanese versions of The Ring (Ringu), The Grudge (Ju-On), and One Missed Call, In the Mouth of Madness, and Event Horizon.

    Halloween: I love how the movie was shot and I love the fall season and where it was shot at. It's a classic that you all probably know about. I'm still not sure if I prefer this over Halloween 2, but they're both good. After the first 3 (even though the third has nothing to do with myers), they go downhill fast. These are the good ones.

    Hey, great lense!
    Thought you might be interested in a new book about one of horror cinema's greatest masters Dario Argento (Deep Red, Suspiria...).

    Many people believe Halloween is the best horror movie of all time. I personally believe night of the living dead is. This is a good list - create this movie list at filmcrave.com
