My favorite horror movies!
For me a good horror movie has a combination of these criteria: is it scary, is it a good movie, is it fun and how good are the characters and story -- some of these don't have all of them, I like each for a different reason but it is what I often base my opinions on! Horror is so subjective though so I understand these may not be for everyone, still - enjoy!
