The 10 films I have chosen for my list are the one that impressed me the most. I am a huge fan of the horror genre and as a Brit myself, it's very hard to find a decent horror film that comes from Britain. These films however are the best we have done.

The big men of horror who are often called upon to play the biggest monsters. So they are both monstrously tall and play "monsters" (literally or figuratively inhuman).

Horror, especially backwoods horror and creature features, does rely on a very large man to increase the already considerable threat.

"Who Says Horror Can Not Be Art?" My favorite modern horror films are some examples which I think fit the description of "Beautifully Brutal Horror" The best horror films recently rated and recommended are both beautiful and terrifying at the same time. There are truly shocking moments which disturbingly can suddenly engross you with stunning visuals or an elegant, overwhelming atmosphere. Horror fans will appreciate the extraordinary camera work and the many talented film makers who continue to create art with this beautifully brutal combination. These are films the Horror Genre should be proud of.

This is my powerhouse lineup. There are detailed reasons to why these films are my favorites, and should be watched over and over again. I'll eventually provide explanations for each film that may contain [SPOILERS!!!] along with ratings out of 10 for BOTH an objective framework rating, and the rating I subjectively give it. Please leave comments and discuss your thoughts on these films. If there is one or two that you feel I should watch based on this list, please let me know!!!

Film or TV containing an occult detective, usually involving someone in law enforcement or an academic or a journalist who either investigates a mundane event that leads them into dark and strange depths or they are already interested in the topic and specifically seek it out.

Intriguingly, while this cross-genre is a popular source for film and especially TV, most of the original characters that inspired them haven't themselves been adapted, like Carnacki (Martin Hesselius or John Silence or Flaxman Low or Jules de Grandin or John Thunstone or Simon Iff or pretty much everyone except Van Helsing). It seems that with the success of Sherlock and Steampunk or Victorian/Edwardian fiction being popular now might be the time - someone should phone Mark Gatiss.

In space no one can hear you scream, unless you are in a spaceship or you've left your suit mike open or the filmmakers don't give a damn about physics and decide it'd be a cool scene.

Basically horror films that take place onboard spaceships or on alien (and often hostile) planets - a sub-genre of the sci-fi horror cross-genre. It does see to grade into sci-fi action or thrillers at the edges (especially where people are being hunted down and killed off one-by-one, for example).

Obviously Alien had a big impact on the scene, leading to numerous cheap rip-offs, but there is another phenomena which About.com highlight: "In horror movies, going into space seems to be the equivalent of a sitcom adding a cute little kid to the cast in a last-ditch effort to revitalize the series" and you can see plenty of examples here - once you've jumped the shark in your horror franchise where do you go? Space, that's where. I expect Final Destination 8 to be sub-titled: "Final Frontier".

I do love such films - many moons ago when I was a much smaller Emperor for a birthday treat I asked to watch a couple of videos - Alien and Dark Star. However, this was back when VCRs were just appearing - they were as big as a medium-sized herbivore and there were only a few thousand in the country, so my Dad had to haul home the one from his school and then we had to venture out to the dark and seedy video rental shop (that managed to cling on even after a large video rental store opened up down the road, just because of the atmosphere and selection of movies).

Also-rans: There are some that didn't quite make the list: Lifeforce, as not much of the horror elements are set in space, and Dark City, as the space angle is the twist ending and doesn't influence the rest of the film.

My brother and I have created a detailed Fear, Intensity, Storyline, Quality (FISQ) rating system. Included in that system are 9 "Fear Genres." This list is the best horror film I've seen that LEADS with each genre. The 9 genres are:

1. Slasher (Blood and gore)
2. Traditional (Halloween things like monsters, bats, pumpkins, etc)
3. Panic (shock/jump-out scares)
4. Mental (Deranged, sadistic, torture, or even visionary. The mind plays tricks on someone, etc)
5. Plausible (Home invasion, war, realistic "someone you know" type fear)
6. Premonition (Contact with another realm, typically spirits, ghosts, exorcisms, etc)
7. Eerie (Un-nerving circumstances, mist, build up without panic finish, dread, etc)
8. Symbolic (Symbolism to afterlife, which typically creates guilt. This can be done with worldly circumstances as well, like addictions, etc)
9. Perdition (Sadism out of control. Rape, Blatant disregard of human decency, Satan worshipping, etc.)

This is not my top 10 list, as some of the genre's are not scary to me, but being an objective framework, technically at least ONE of these films should be one you'll very highly enjoy. Obviously the balance of other genre's and the FISQ framework make it a great film.

Lot's of horror movies are worth a watch but that's about it. This list consists of horror films I like enough to own and watch at least somewhat regularly. Not all are necessarily scary. Some are classics and some I just have a soft spot for but all are films I have enjoyed many times over the years. (or intend to) Some of you may feel a few belong on my Overrated Horror list, but these ones don't get old to me. Just my opinion obviously. Hopefully there are at least a few on the list you haven't seen and are inclined to take a chance on. (and hopefully you like them!) This list will be updated from time to time when I find new additions. Here they are in order of release.

The strangest horror movies out there. The kind where you get genuinely worried for the sanity of the film-makers, then you start worrying you've gone mad and imagined it all. Or you might question the wisdom of their going for an unlikely monster - a pinata? Is that wise? Apparently not.

I watch a lot of movies and I love to hit up a ton of horror movies every September/October. Below is my list of top horror movie by year(though not all would classify as horror). I include any type of sub-genre. Horror-Comedy, Space Horror, Thrillers.

If you have any suggestions for me to watch in years with a weak selection or with no selection at all. Leave a comment.

I also used IMDB's year. I know some movies had US releases in different years but I am relying on IMDB.

Thanks.

Films that contain Nazi occultism, although this may grade into Nazi superscience or the supernatural where the dividing line is tricky to discern (the latter because the pseudoscience required is so extreme it almost conforms to Clarke's Third Law about science and magic), so it can touch on secret Third Reich bases in Antractica, Nazi UFOs and associated craziness.

Thanks to publications like Morning of the Magicians, there is an undercurrent of suspicion that the Nazis were up to all sorts of occult hi-jinks (beyond the well-known activities of the Ahnenerbe) and these films take that ball and run with it.

In his study of James Herbert's novel The Spear, Nick Freeman looks at the history of our interest in the Nazis, from the relative tame in the post-War years to the lurid in the 60s, with the occult aspects rising in popularity in the 70s:


Nazi occult experimentation may not have offered the same opportunities for pornographers as death camps and military brothels, but this did not mean that its treatment was any less sensational. Works such as Louis Pauwels and Jacques Bergier’s Le Matin des Magiciens (1960), Trevor Ravenscroft’s The Spear of Destiny (1972), and J. H. Brennan’s still more outlandish Occult Reich (1974) captured the popular imagination. Ravenscroft’s book is still in print, as is its sequel, The Mark of the Beast (1990), and a paperback reprint of Le Matin des Magiciens claimed a million copies had been sold by 1971 alone. All were fixated by supposedly secret or suppressed histories: the 1976 reprint of Brennan’s book boasts that it deals ‘in facts – but facts that orthodox historians ignore.’ Since the appearance of Nicholas Goodrich-Clark’s The Occult Roots of Nazism (1985), such works seem poorly researched and hysterically argued, but they were accorded considerable popular interest in the mid-1970s when Herbert was writing The Spear.


However, he does point out that the Nazi/occult mix can be dated back to Dennis Wheatley's 1941 novel Strange Conflict, the same date as the first film on this list.

References: Nick Freeman "'A decadent appetite for the lurid'?: James Herbert, The Spear and 'Nazi Gothic'"

Further reading: The Occult Roots of Nazism, as mentioned in the quote, this is one of the best researched and takes a level-headed approach to the topic as does Arktos: The Polar Myth in Science, Symbolism, and Nazi Survival. Raymond Sickinger's "Hitler and the Occult: The Magical Thinking of Adolf Hitler" is a good quick overview of the debate. Adam Shreve's "'Beunos Noches, Mein Fuhrer': A Look at Nazism in Popular Culture" is a pretty broad look at the influence of the Third Reich on our media. Why the Nazis and the Occult Plotlines in 'The Devil's Rock' Work so Well, a short piece on Nazi occultism in movies and why it is so effective.

See also: My Horrors of War and Nazi zombies/zombie Nazis lists, the latter in particular, as there is nothing Nazi occultists like to more than raise the dead for their nefarious purposes.

Links: TV Tropes have a number of pages that cover this: Those Wacky Nazis, Stupid Jetpack Hitler and most relevantly Ghostapo.

Inspired by this piece from the Garudian:


Interest in homegrown horror was rekindled by Danny Boyle's film 28 Days Later in 2002 and grew with the success of Shaun of the Dead, Neil Marshall's The Descent and Christopher Smith's two films Creep and Severance.


So this list deals with the last decade (and counting) revival in the fortunes of the British horror movie (you can monitor new releases here, and there is one for short films), I'm sure the creative people were out there but it was 28 Days Later than got the purse strings loosened. Defining "British" is always going to be subjective, Hammer, for example, made a return in 2007 but some of the films they've produced have been co-productions filmed abroad (like Let Me In), but we'll include them as this this list is partly to show the strength of the British film industry when it comes to horror films. For that reason I will also include movies filmed in the UK as it all helps bolster the home-grown efforts (like World War Z).

Of course, that isn't to say that all these films are great, some of them are awful, but the level of quality is higher than I've found on most of my other lists.

Also making 2002 a cut-off is pretty arbitrary as it includes Dog Soldiers and Deathwatch that can't have benefited much from the 28 Days Later effect, and it excludes many interesting films that pre-date it, like The Bunker and Lighthouse, but it is still a good line in the sand if we want to look at recent British horror films and it does seem to be a genuine phenomena.

See also: Contagious violence, it shouldn't be a surprise, given the film that kickstarted everything that a lot of the films here also feature over there but the sub-genre (and zombie films) are easy to do with simple make-up and effects, and there is also an explosion in them in general. Also hoodie horror films feature strongly as a reflection of modern concerns. In addition there are quite a few films that fit into the backwoods horror and folk horror, both of which are undergoing a resurgence too (both of which can also be done on a limited budget). In fact, in most sub-genres I've been tracking, a big hit film has combined with improved distribution and cheaper technology to give a spike in the number of films produced.

Links: British horror revival blog from MJ Simpson, the co-founder of SFX magazine and the author of the upcoming book Urban Terrors: New British Horror Cinema 1997-2008, a guide to the 114 key films of that period. I only found it part-way through making the list but it has proved invaluable for filling in the gaps here (it also helped confirm I was on the right lines with the list name), so if you like this list follow his blog and be sure to pick up his book (if it goes well there is chance of a sequel - there are clearly going to be more films in the few years after 2008 than in the decade before). He has also provided round-ups of the releases in 2010 and 2011, noting that in 2001 there were 3 British horror films but in 2010 there were 48 (the 2010 round-up only includes 32 because he discovered more afterwards) and in 2011 there were 41 (not counting further revisions), my count below is different but the proportions are similar. There were more again in 2012, 14 of them zombie films, more than one a month and more than the annual total for most years (in fact so many I made a list for British zombie films). Which does flag up that something is going on here. Frightfest is also worth keeping an eye on, it is the UK's leading horror film festival (I have yet to attend but I will one day) with a strong focus on British movies and, even if you can't make it, because it is run in conjunction Film4, they run a week's worth of films and interviews on their TV channel (it is where I first heard about Kill List, for example).

The count: I have gone through and counted all the full length British horror films and put them into a spreadsheet and graph.

Which really does show an upwards trend, from less than one a month to one ever 3 days, just in the noughties - rapidly passing the levels of the boom period for British horror: the 60s and 70s. If you look back further you'll see that horror film production in the 90s were often down to similar levels to the early 50s when we were shaking off the effects of a world war (the chilling effect of the video nasty era? after all hardline BBFC chief James Ferman retired in 1999 and it was only then that a lot of the banned movies started to be passed uncut). A really impressive upswing , although it makes it impossible to keep up with all of them even if you wanted to. However, the number do suggest the renaissance was under way before 28DL, even if the success of films like it (Shaun of the Dead, etc.) have inspired film-makers and made financiers take British horror films seriously, helping to build momentum. I'd also flag up my comments above, as the growth in some horror sub-genres parallels what we see here, suggesting that the ease of film-making and distribution now means there will be more films but there is also clear evidence for successful films have an important effect on the types of films being made (the best example of zombie films - the first 3 Romero films created a spike in zombie movies with a lag of a year or two - I have rather a fine graph to prove my point).

I did also stumble across this piece about horror fiction and Tory governments:


A cursory glance at the points where horror fiction did enjoy periods of resurgence do tend to follow an upward graph with Tory fortunes.

...

Now, after two years of government by coalition of the Conservatives and the Lib Dems, horror is on the rise again.


So we can see a big spike in British horror films after 2010 (a jump of 50%) but there is usually a lag of a few years between inspiration and realisation, plus the Thatcher/Major years (1979-1997) saw a real dip in output between high points of the 60s/70s and the current upswing. So I'm not buying this when it comes to films, and if we are talking about fiction then... show me your numbers - I've shown you mine after all.

Caveats: There could be a recentist bias to an internet movie data base but IMDB has been going since 1990, so you'd imagine that'd be smoothed out by now and the British horror film industry isn't that large, but does attract a lot of rabid fans, so you'd imagine it'd be difficult for too many films to fall through the gaps. The opposite might also be a problem - there might be a bias against more recent movies as it can take a while for information to trickle through. However, this seems to largely apply to tagging and working out what sub-genres films fit into which are user added features and can be a bit arbitrary and subjective, while the location of production company is going to be a well-defined fact and much more likely to be properly registered here when the film is added (I have found a couple of examples so far when compiling this list, but not many). So I suspect neither is so serious to make a mockery of the numbers, as is a big enough sample that a few films won't make any difference (famous last words, I'm sure). One factor I do think might have an impact on the current year peak is that I've already seen some unreleased films shifted back to the following year or just whenever. So I expect the patter of each year is the peak will grow, as the full slate of films in production becomes clear, and then it will drop a bit as some get rescheduled or disappear into development hell, never to be seen again. Which means the current year is always going to be provisional until we reach the end and perhaps do a little tidy up too, so there might be a drop off of a dozen or so, but that might be compensated for after the inclusion of some films that might not get listed here until they're released.

Other films: There are some adult films that I'm wary of listing as they seem to cause problems for the list: Cathula 2: Vampires of Sex.

Length: Sorry it is a long list and this might be a little off-putting but you can use the filters to break it down if you don't want to browse through all the pages (even if I recommend you do it at least once). So you can, for example, rank only the feature films by quality if you were perhaps looking some of the better movies on the list to watch (even then you should do your homework, because some obscure films don't have many votes which can lead to people gaming the system).

Videos: I've tried to provide links to online videos of films where they appear to be official, if you want me to add a video or remove/swap a link then leave a note in the comments.

Films from the zombie's perspective or, at a push, where they are a sympathetic, leading protagonist who is fighting their baser urges. It is time to stick up for the rights of undead Americans and their decaying brethren worldwide.

There were a few precursors to this type of film but it really seems to have taken off from 2004 onwards, possibly because of the glut of recent zombie movies which has caused film-makers to cast around for another angle of attack.

Drawing the line is always going to be tricky here - Bud from Day of the Dead might count as could Big Daddy from Land of the Dead, but this seems to be part of Romero's exploration of the evolution of the zombie, re-learning lost tasks but, to my mind anyway, there seems to be a line lying between them and Fido. However, I'm open to being persuaded on this point.

See also: The vengeful dead, where the dead are returned with one thing on their mind (and it isn't cannibalism - the clues in the title) and they tend to be more compos mentis, where in this list they can often find themselves struggling with diminishing mental abilities and an increasing taste for human flesh. Also contagious violence films sometimes have a similar angle to this as they are infected, rather than being reanimated, so may try and hold off the effects of the virus as long as possible or try and cope with it (as in, for example, The Defiled).

Others: There is also a short film called Brains apparently not listed here.

The 72 "video nasties" compiled by the Director of Public Prosecutions and published in 1983, 39 of which were deemed "obscene" by the courts. The kind of films that, during my youth, were either passed around like samizdat literature on piss poor VHS tapes or were beyond our limited reach and so became the source of wild rumours about their lurid contents. Most proved rather disappointing when we finally tracked them down (although some rank amongst my favourite films), but being banned did add an extra level of enjoyment to tracking them down and watching them. Following the retirement of chief scourge of video nasties James Ferman, a lot of the films have since been resubmitted and most have passed with no cuts, those that remain cut tend to include violence to animals and women. Interestingly, Ferman's retirement in 1999 coincided with a renaissance in British horror films, as can be demonstrated in this graph. Coincidence?

I have grouped the videos by whether they were or were not prosecuted and then related films from the same period that were caught up in the moral panic (basically the grouping they have on Wikipedia), rounding things out with some documentaries. I've also provided a few quick details of the film's fate although I've not been too specific as there can be multiple versions of one title and the situation can change, so do your homework before buying.

Sources: Video Nasties list and The Complete Video Nasties List , both of which give an overview of the films (the former is the most in-depth).

Further reading: Seduction of the Gullible: The Truth Behind the Video Nasty Scandal (2007) by John Martin. The Evil Dead, The Living Dead and the dead wrong , a Guardian article looking back on the period, prompted by the release of the following DVD:

Further viewing: Video Nasties: The Definitive Guide (R2). There are also two collections, both also R2:

* Box of the Banned, contains: The Evil Dead, Zombie Flesh Eaters, The Driller Killer, The Last House on the Left, Nightmares in a Damaged Brain, I Spit on Your Grave and Ban the Sadist Videos!. I didn't buy this one as some of the films are cut, I have either already seen some and the ones I wanted to buy I got in better quality and uncut DVDs.

* Box of the Banned 2, contains: Tenebrae, Contamination, Don't Go Near the Park, The Witch Who Came From the Sea, Evilspeak and Ban the Sadist Videos! Part 2. I have this one as it seemed a reasonably-priced collection with a few films I was curious about seeing.

See also: Torture porn films (and their antecedents), my wider list of similar films from around the world. Someone else has done a list on "roughies," which I know little about but according to Sleazoid Express: A Mind-twisting Tour Through the Grindhouse Cinema of Times Square they are "extreme, sexually motivated movies". Both lists demonstrate that there is far worse lurking out there, and the films that made the list seem rather random.

a list of 30 titles by mka created 8 months ago
in my graduating year of highschool, i was voted "most likely to become famous for directing horror films" in our yearbook. for real. i would love to be able to prove this one, but i can't. just believe me.

in a way it was kind of silly, because i went to an all-girl's private school, and most of the futures of my peers were fairly...all-girl's private school (i was in the same grade as one of my cousins, and her prediction was "most likely to marry rich". it was, i'm sure, a little disheartening for my mother to see that my cousin obviously radiated some sort of heiress femininity, while i failed miserably at the concept). but in another way i had it coming, mainly because i'd watch horror movies at home and recap them for my pre-calculus class once in a while. i also recapped miike's 'audition' in the staff room once and i think my english teacher's face when i said "and then the sack moved!!!" is something i'll never forget. also i was weird and i don't even think in the good way, looking back. i think i thought maybe i was john waters mixed with virginia woolfe, but maybe...maybe i was just john waters.

i have two bits of criteria that help me determine what defines a "favorite" horror film: the first is i have to feel somehow physically unstable by the end of it, and the second is that if someone tells me they did not 'react' to any single one of these films, i would be wary around them. don't trust hardcore horror apathetics. they're creepy.

anyway enough weird personal ranting. long story short i love horror and these are my favorites, 1 being my absolute favorite and down from there. happy reading!

PS: most of these films are somewhat well heard of. that's not really on purpose, but i think it's interesting. i do go hunting for "indie" horrors, but horror may be the only genre where what's popular, is popular for a reason.

PPS: for this list i'm putting twists under spoiler bars. because i'm trying to recommend these to newcomers in the horror genre, and what's a scary movie without its twists?

I need to rank the horror films I've seen in the last year. I'll add to this so they have a place in line. This is simply a list of those I"ve seen this year. The films at the bottom are the worst horrors I've seen this year and the ones at the top, the best. I've added my ratings out of 10 and a one liner for you. I welcome recommendations based off the movies I've rated a 7.5 or higher, if you have any. I'm not including horror comedy, as it's not true horror.

Yep, lists, not movies. Which horror movie lists are the most useful? Which ones are the most original?

The choices I've made are based on my own personal interest. The order is random. Recommendations are welcome.

The reason I've done this, is to make it easier to myself to track down some horror movies I'm unfamiliar with and which I might like to see. It's not meant to create some kind of contest or to judge people personal.

Contrasting with the films on my contagious violence list (and, beyond them, zombie movies), sometimes people don't turn into rampaging cannibals when they get a disease, sometimes a lot of people just get sick and die, messily. This is the list for those films, because sometimes it is fun to kick back and watch a film where someone bleeds to death from their ass.

Although the outbreak can be relatively limited, these often deal with pandemics and so grade into apocalyptic movies.

This isn't a complete survey (there are always more) but it does seem like there are more of these films recently, perhaps because of the concerns over SARS and the various flus (avian and swine). Hopefully, these cathartic excursions are the closest most of us get to such modern plagues.

Metafilm - A film that depicts filming or the making of a film.
Meta-Horror - A horror film that is self-referential to the genre.

This is a list looking at the best of the meta-horror films. The more meta the better. Films that delve and explore what makes the genre tick. The meta concept can be stretched sometimes too far into parody, and this list tries to keep it close. Don't mistake these for metafilms though, even though many are as they make the metaphors far easier to convey.

PLEASE ignore every other list I've made on this website. This is my master list. In order of release year.

The opinion of a 15 year old horror fan. Modern horror haters beware! I may love modern horror, but I also adore 80's and 90's horror films. I have a deep understanding of horror psycholagy (i suck at spelling huge words) and am working on my own horror film projects. And yes, I love just plain fun, gory, cheesy horror flicks as much as the deep, emotional ones.

In case you're wondering, Jeepers Creepers is my favorite.

Well, to be fair, if you're a horror fan then you probably have heard of these films.

But for the casual movie-goer these are somewhat unknown.

To enjoy these films I ask you to be open to a few things. First, recognize the fact that the United States isn't the ONLY country that makes good movies. And along with that, get over your fear or aversion to subtitled films. Give it a try! I promise there are some amazing foreign films out there that you will LOVE.

Second, open your mind to different kinds of story telling. Hollywood blockbuster films have a way of dumbing down the stories and spoon feeding the details to audiences like we're a bunch of idiots. A lot of these films on my list aren't "typical" films. But to me, that's what makes them so interesting. And good.

I won't say these films are to EVERYONES taste but I hope you'll give a few of them a try. Enjoy!

Lon Chaney's monsters usually were pitiful victims at the same time. James Whale shaped the Frankenstein monster as an outcast of society. Through the years vampires became more and more attractive and troubled personalities. And even Romero humanized his 'living dead'.

Well this list is about none of them!
This list is about abstract shapeless soulless monsters everyone just wants to DESTROY!

French transgressive and horror films most of which have fallen under the label of the New French Extremity.

See also: Torture porn (and their antecedents), a list this one crosses over with due to the violence in a lot of these films. Splat Pack films, movies by a more tightly-knit group of anglophone creators whose work has often been labelled as 'torture porn' even though most of their output doesn't reach the heights (depths?) of some of the films listed here. New Japanese Gore films are also extreme films create by a closely-knit ground of movie-makers.

Further reading: The 8 Most Disturbing Films of The New Wave of French Horror, The Best French Horror And Extreme Films Of The Decade and 50 Must-See French Horror Movies (this last one looking at earlier films too). This blog has reviewed a lot of them in some depth.

Others: Anatomy of Hell is flagged as porn so can't be added.

Movies from the The Splat Pack, a group of film creators who have tended to push the envelope in recent horror flicks, who are partly responsibly for torture porn. There is also heavy crossover with backwoods horror.

Leading Splat Packer Eli Roth has said "We all have the same agenda: to bring back really violent, horrific movies."

Often lumped in with zombie movies but these corpses come back from the grave not as mindless cannibalistic brutes, but with one thing in mind: revenge.

A sub-section of body horror movies, that deal with killer babies, freakish pregnancies and other birth-related strangeness. Films that put the 'terror' in 'teratology'.

My subterranean horror list mainly focused on caves, tunnels, sewers, mines, etc. but there are related films in which monsters pounce on their victims by tunnelling or burrowing up beneath them. So here is that list.

Further reading: Fearnet's guide to underground horror also includes these films, which partly prompted this spin off - after all I do like the Tremors films, so I might as well try and group together as many similar films as possible.
