    The original Alien film is by far the best in the series. As much fun as Aliens is, to me nothing comes close to those opening 30 minutes of ALien. Once the Alien appears it all becomes a little too conventional maybe, but it is so well crafted that I find myself revisiting it way more than the second one.

    Also: no mention of the "It's Alive!' series in the above lists?

    I may have seen one of two of the It's Alive films, can't remember which, though. It's a good addition to the list.

    I was thinking best segment in an anthology would be a cool addition to this topic, picking the best segment from an anthology film like Creepshow, Tales From The Darkside: The Movie, Body Bags, etc.

    And here it is:


    We should do best segment in an anthology, too. Here's my picks:


    Creepshow - The Crate
    Creepshow 2 - The Hitchhiker
    Cat's Eye - General
    Tales From The Darkside: The Movie - Lover's Vow
    Tales From The Hood - Boys Do Get Bruised


    Haven't seen the two V/H/S films yet and it's been too long since I last saw Body Bags and the 1972 Tales From The Crypt movie.

    Dang, has it really been a year since I started this? Time flies

    On the subject of anthology, I was also thinking of best episode per season of a Horror TV show. Here's some that come to mind for me:


    Tales From The Crypt S1 - The Man Who Was Death
    Tales From The Crypt S2 - Television Terror
    Tales From The Crypt S3 - Undertaking Palor
    Tales From The Crypt S4 - The New Arrival
    Tales From The Crypt S5 - House Of Horror
    Tales From The Crypt S6 - Doctor Of Horror
    Tales From The Crypt S7 - The Third Pig

    Tales From The Darkside S1 - Inside The Closet
    Tales From The Darkside S2 - Halloween Candy
    Tales From The Darkside S3 - Seasons Of Belief
    Tales From The Darkside S4 - The Family Reunion

    Tales From The Cryptkeeper S1 - While The Cat's Away
    Tales From The Cryptkeeper S2 - The Haunted Mine
    Tales From The Cryptkeeper S3 - Too Cool For School

    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S1 - The Tale Of The Pinball Wizard
    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S2 - The Tale Of The Midnight Madness
    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S3 - The Tale Of The Quicksilver
    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S4 - The Tale Of The Fire Ghost
    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S5 - The Tale Of The Dead Man's Float
    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S6 - The Tale Of Vampire Town
    Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S7 - The Tale Of The Silver Sight (all three parts)

    Masters Of Horror S1 - Cigarette Burns
    Masters Of Horror S2 - Family


    It's been too long since I last watched all of the seasons of some of the other anthologies like Monsters and Fear Itself, so I need to rewatch those to determine.
