well, do you have a list of favorite albums? how do you rank music, which isn't even narrowed to a genre usually?

I have a favorite. Ranking a top ten would be pretty difficult.

sooo, do you have a favorite horror movie?

There are probably five or ten that are in contention for number one. :p

which five or ten? don't make me pull teeth, here!

I'm with Jason. Ranking shit is too damn difficult, especially for people like us that have seen a billion fucking films.

but he wants to do it, so i'm gonna try to help.

Just head to Flickchart, Jason

You can filter by horror, and just start ranking preferences as you go. Could still take a while to get it molded into shape.

I was about to suggest Flickchart. Don't think too hard about it, just click the one you'd rather watch.

I own all the movies in consideration for a top list, only problem is like Slaughter said, it's too difficult. I'll go to flickchart and like three movies in I'll be stuck because I can't pick one over the other. :p

Example, Christine could fall anywhere from the top 20 to the top 80.

well, i'll give my top 10. if it will help you at all, to work out an idea for your own.

1. a nightmare on elm street
2. the evil dead
3. night of the living dead
4. psycho
5. basket case
6. sleepaway camp
7. the fly (1986)
8. aliens
9. grenlins
10. carrie

At least four of those will be at minimum considered for my top ten.

whichever five to ten you mentioned before as being in contention for #1 should be your first few ranked, instead of just fighting with which should be #1, list them out and then go from there.

A big problem is a lot of movies are fuzzy. I'd have to rewatch many of them.

enh. fair enough. hope you decide how you want to figure it out.

gonna go watch the exorcist, which i meant to, yesterday.

I can do 10, maybe even 25. Tell me to rank 100 of anything and I’m just going to quit.

1. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
2. A Nightmare on Elm Street
3. Suspiria
4. The Thing
5. Evil Dead 2
6. Dawn of the Dead
7. Black Christmas
8. Phantasm 2
9. Tourist Trap
10. Motel Hell

Rewatchability and my current mood pretty much sets up all movie ranking lists for me, same with books and music for rereading and repeat listening.

Did you notice when the mother finds the cross under Reagan's pillow? She sets it on a table downstairs and answers the door, talks with the detective, and when walking him out, the cross is gone, followed by immediate noises from upstairs and the famous cross crotch scene...
