    LOL@noot I need to read what i type from time to time. LOL

    I also liked Friday 13th but I thought that was made in the late 70's? I love creepshow for they were filmed a few blocks from where I lived. i think he needs to make some new creep shows

    The Thing, Nightmare on elm street was great.

    Yeh! Another "Christine" fan! A lot of people seem to slag it off, but I really like it!
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Ah I could make this list HUGE. I feel that the end of the 80s was basically the end of good films. For the most part, movies have sucked since then. I could put too many movies on here, but I'll only do 10 or 11.

    1 - Pee Wee's Big Adventure
    2 - Masters Of The Universe
    3 - Killer Klowns From Outter Space
    4 - Better Off Dead
    5 - Bachelor Party
    6 - House 2
    7 - Weekend At Bernies
    8 - Weekend At Bernies 2
    9 - Monster Squad
    10 - The Wizard
    11 - Night Of The Comet

    TONS more!

    EDIT: Ah, crap! I didn't realize it said "horror" until just now. I'll leave that list, anyway.

    HORROR:
    1 - Night Of The Comet
    2 - House
    3 - Maximum Overdrive
    4 - Chopping Mall
    5 - The Puppet Master series
    6 - The Nightmare On Elm St series
    7 - The Friday 13th series
    8 - POLTERGEIST (one of the best horrors ever, in my opinion)
    9 - The Evil Dead series
    10 - Halloween II
    11 - Killer Klowns From Outter Space (this movies does have scenes that are genuinly creepy)
    12 - Bad Taste

    How could you leave out "Blues Brothers" and "Ghostbusters" from your non-horror list? Shame, shame

    It's a sin to enjoy "Weekend at Bernies" and not Ghostbusters
