    Wow, excellent list! You definitely covered all of the bases. I kept thinking of movies that scare the daylights out of me and you got them all (especially The Exorcist, 30 years later and it still terrifies me). Perfect overview of decades of first-rate horror.

    Really solid list. Tough to argue with most of these choices, save "Amityville Horror." I've never been a fan and all, and really surprised to see it so high!



    Also, didn't see "The Changeling" on there. If you haven't seen it... great little 1980 ghost movie with the great George C. Scott. Recommended.
