October is horror movie calendar month at my house . We ’ve been slake a little bit this yr , but so far we have managed to gibe inThe Legend of Sleepy Hollow(the animated one with Bing Crosby , not the unrecorded - action Johnny Depp one),The Exorcist , The MistandThe Ruins . The latter was kind of horrible , by the way , do n’t lay waste to your time if you have n’t already .

The American Film Institute has done a middling love - up line of liberate film list in the preceding few years " “ good lines , practiced jest , best musicals , proficient film grudge . They even lately released the 10 best moving picture in a bunch of different genre , include " Courtroom Drama" and " Gangsters . “ But they have yet to release a " best horror movie" list , much to my chagrin ( and the chagrin of many others " ¦ lots of horror nerd bloggers have made their own to make up for the AFI ’s skip ) . But theyhavereleased the 100 " Best Thrills,“ which I guess is as tightlipped as they are going to get . I ’m listing their top 10 .

4.North by Northwest . This is probably my personal favorite Hitchcock , and you ca n’t beat Cary Grant .

5.The secrecy of the Lambs . An first-class somewhat - modernistic choice , I ’d say . Anthony Hopkins is superbly chilling .

6.Alien . I ca n’t speak to this one because I ’ve never seen the whole matter . I know ! What kind of a repugnance pic aficionado am I ?

What do you call back ? Agree or disagree?I have to wonder whyThe Shiningis # 30 on the leaning andPoltergeistis # 84 ! Those would definitely have made my top 10.Drop us a communication channel and let us know what movies you recall should be include on the lean " “ and if you have any passport for my Halloween Netflix queue , leave that too , orsend me a Tweet .
