I just love threads about horror movies. My favorite genre. Here's mine.

1. The Exorcist
2. The Omen
3. Prince of darkness
4. The Entity
5. Race with the devil
6. The Mist
7. 100 feet
8. 30 days of night
9. The Manitou
10. In the mouth of madness

Although I never considered Jaws a horror movie, it is an awesome movie and I spent last week watching as many shark movies that I could find on Netflix. I just love a good shark movie.

The Manitou gave me the creeps. I almost mentioned that. Glad you did. I own all three Omen movies too. The Entity was great.

7. Exorcist II: The Heretic (John Boorman, 1977)
[

VERY interesting that your #8 pick is John Boorman's production of
Exorcist II: The Heretic. This film was widely panned by fans and critics alike. BUT, I LOVE your choice. It's making me think I need to go back and give it another look. You certainly can't go wrong with Academy Award nominees/winners like Linda Blair, Richard Burton and Louise Fletcher.
