items A collection of spine-chilling films that will keep you up at night. Perfect for any horror aficionado!
The original Halloween is still one of the best horror films of all time. It may seem quaint by today's standards—at least in terms of kills—but John Carpenter's 1978 classic is still masterclass in suspense.

Does Jaws count as horror? Ask the countless beach goers who swore off swimming in the ocean forever after viewing the 1975 blockbuster.

The scariest horror movies to me are the ones with no apparent motive. When it comes to random acts of terror they don't get much better than The Strangers.
The Strangers (2008 film)
Punk Rock and Zombies? Two great tastes that taste great together!
The Return of the Living Dead
"When there's no more room in Hell the dead will walk the Earth" the perfect tagline for the perfect horror movie. This film has everything: gore, comedy, romance, social commentary and quite possibly the only Hari-Krishna zombie ever put on the big ...
Dawn of the Dead (1978 film)
While not as famous as The Thing (1982) or The Fly (1986) the 1988 Blob remake still deserves a seat at the table. Full of amazing '80s practical gore effects and tons of unsettling body horror, The Blob is sure to satisfy everyone from the casual sc...

Not sure what I can say about this film that hasn't already been said before. A horror classic that went unapreciated in it's time, The Thing is quite literally the stuff nightmares are made of.
The Thing (1982) - IMDb
My favortie Evil Dead film and quite possibly one of my favorite films period. This one is more comedy than horror so if you're looking for something light-hearted but still horror-adjacent this is the perfect choice. Hail to the King baby!
Army of Darkness
It may seem cliched to put the Exorcist on this list but it's a classic for a reason. You'll never look at pea-soup the same way again.
The Exorcist (1973) - IMDb
Day of the Dead is seen by many as the weakest film in George A Romero's original Dead trilogy but it's my personal favorite. The lack of budget forcing the entire film to take place in one location only adds to the films claustrophobic atmosphere. O...
Day of the Dead (1985) - IMDb
The original Night of the Living Dead is an undisputed classic but don't sleep on the 1990 remake. Directed by SFX master Tom Savini and written by Romero himself, NOTLD '90 is a criminally underrated zombie thrill-athon.

This movie. THIS MOVIE. I saw this film when I was entirely too young to do so. As a result I have a life long fear of clown dolls.
Poltergeist (1982) - IMDb
“In space no one can hear you scream” With that tagline, director Ridley Scott and screenwriter Dan O'Bannon kicked off one of the most frightening scenarios in cinema history. A crew of blue collar interstellar truckers is hunted down one after the ...
Alien (1979) - IMDb
One of the progenitors of the Splatstick subgenre, Evil Dead II is bloody good, bloody funny, and just plain bloody.
Evil Dead II (1987) - IMDb
A childhood favorite that still holds up today, Fright Night is a fun little vampire romp with some great jokes and even better practical effects.
