The 13 Best Horror Sequels of All Time!

"Sequels suck." At least that's what Scream 2 said, but then again Scream 2 isn't good enough to make this list. This week marks the release of H2, the sequel to Rob Zombie's abysmal attempt to remake/re-imagine/justify ruining Halloween, and while he's got a pretty good track record with sequels (The Devil's Rejects just barely squeaked into the Top Thirteen) we thought we'd take the time to remind audiences that sequels can be classics too. Whether these films were better than the original (some were), re-invented the franchise (some did) or are simply entertaining films in their own right (they all are), here are a few cinematic delicacies to cleanse your palette, in case H2 leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

The most colorful movies I've ever seen! ('Colorful' as in 'vivid and striking' and not 'colorful' as in 'richly eventful'....just so we're clear!)

This is a list of films about....good guys gone bad? No, some of these guys were already bad. All of these movies star characters that have no qualms about killing people. Most of them are actually likable guys. You identify with them, and at some point, agree with their decisions. This is one of the many reasons I think cinema is wonderful....

These people were never good people. Chances are they were always evil. What makes me love this movie SO much, though, is how it made me identify with them. Halfway through, I realized I was totally rooting for them. I was almost ashamed. Almost.

Rob Zombie's first film, House of 1,000 Corpses, probably suffered from TOO much post-production while he struggled to find a distributor. The result turned a film with a simple concept - teenagers run afoul of the crazed owners of a Roadside Attraction - into a borderline unwatchable nightmare of stylistic flourishes. The Devil's Rejects, on the other hand, was an exciting getaway picture, cleverly focusing on the serial killers from the first film as they attempt to evade capture from a lawman who makes the mistake of looking so deeply into the abyss that he didn't notice that anyone was looking back. It's still overwrought (and making the audience sit through ALL of Freebird is the height of hubris), but if it weren't for every other movie he ever made The Devil's Rejects would probably make Rob Zombie seem like a misunderstood genius.
