Top Ten Horror Movies Reviews

The Cabinet of Dr Caligari (1920) Filmed at the height of the German expressionist movement, this silent horror is the true stuff of nightmares. The lines of reality and fantasy blur, as we watch a story of an insane doctor who commands a sleepwalking slave to murder. As the film unfolds towards the end we discover all is not what it ...  Read the complete review

Here's my top ten for the Kensington Gore freaks out there. My idea of horror is not like Hogsflesh's idea of horror - headless men and lusting lesbians - but the safety and sanity of the more conventional and cliché. They are in no particular order although they are listed in the order I remembered them so I suppose that is favouritism of some ...  Read the complete review

The word horror can be very diverse when it is used in regards to movies, for example I personally wouldn't consider Jaws a horror while others might. I therefore encountered some degree of difficulty when choosing my top ten horror movies, but nonetheless I managed. At the end of the day everyone has a different idea about what makes a ...  Read the complete review

In this one that cheeky rascal Jason Voorhees is frozen in suspended animation and awoken hundreds of years later on a spaceship where he creates havoc and starts killing everyone. The body ...  Read the complete review

I'd not even started typing this review and I was trying to think of my Top 10 horror films... It's going to be pretty hard I think - and they might not be in any order of preference. Oh well... here goes nothing! 1. POLTERGEIST (1982) I've always loved this film. It's the story of a normal family who are plunged ...  Read the complete review

The Horror genre is much maligned by traditional movie ‘enthusiasts’, who often dismiss it as crass and without any redeeming qualities, despite the fact many ‘respectable’ actors have either started in the genre, ala Kevin Bacon, or at least dabbled in it at some point or another. Needless to say, it ranks up there as one of my favourite genres, ...  Read the complete review

There aren’t many top 10 categories that would call me like this one. If I’m honest (and I am….mostly), the top 10 review thingies involve a lot of work and so I avoid them because…erm…well, they’re a lot of work. Y’know, thinking of a top 10, then writing something on each one whilst trying to stay reasonably entertaining, starting out with a ...  Read the complete review

I am not sure why I love horror movies so much as they freak me out that bit too much and sometimes I have even resorted to asking my sister Sam to get the dog and come and sleep in my room for the night so I am not alone. I think most people like seeing if the movie can scare them but me I like watching them to see if they scare me but also to ...  Read the complete review
