the Exorcist is, in my opinion, the best horror film ever made based merely on my belief that, even if you took out all elements of horror, or the devil, or whatever, it would still be a good movie. I think it is almost obscenely well-written with the characterization being on a par with any of the great dramas. But, if we are allowed to include horror hybrids, I would have to say my favorite is Nightmare Before Christmas because like my friend Amy says, "If you can't identify with Jack Skellington, who CAN you identify with?"

I don't like The Exorcist because I just don't find little girls swearing at people and puking on them very scary. Have to agree with Beetlejuice where that one's concerned. Maybe if I wasn't such an atheist it'd be more scary.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) Real people in a real fucked up situation that draws you in with not only the direction but one hell of a schizo soundtrack.
I don't care what that fuckwit Michael Bay says about his queer arse remake it just doesn't come anywhere near the original or even the second one for that matter.

The Crazies freaks me out as well because out of any horror I've seen it's the one most likely to happen. Especially in the times we occupy now.


But asking for the best horror ever is like asking what your favourite toy was as a child.

To me, talking about the "best" horror film is different than talking about the "scariest." It includes scariness, certainly, but isn't limited to that one aspect. That's why I chose the Exorcist (including the re-released version with the deleted scenes).
