Post by Lazerus »

I didn't see a thread dedicated to this so I decided to create one.

Here is my top 25 Horror films list. The top 10 are easy, it was the last 15 that I struggled with because there are so many films I feel deserve a spot on this list. Anyway, here it is. Looking forward to seeing everyone else's list.

I came up with the name you jackals! It was for the top Horror movie of each year, based on the prestigious Palme d'Or award from France for you uncultured. I'd list every horror movie for a given year, we'd all list our top 5, weighted list, bam we had top horror movie of the year. In which Possession was robbed worse than La La Land in 1981, tbh imo.

none of us had yet witnessed the brilliance of possession, due to lack of physical media at the time. this has since been more than rectified. and i like the name!
