Film | Empire's 50 Best Horror Movies Ever

With Halloween literally right around the corner, I thought I would take some of the horror films I've seen and those I want to see from Empire's 50 Best Horror Movies Ever and do a little post.


50. The Devil's Backbone (2001)
47. Audition (1999)
45. Cat People (1945)
44. Day of the Dead (1985) I have been wanting to watch both the Devil's Backbone and Cronos ever since watching Hellboy but I still haven't gotten around to it. I've already seen the Day of the Dead remake so I think I should watch the original.


42. The Skin I Live In (2011)
41. Dracula (1958)
40. The Blair Witch Project (1999)
39. The Babadook (2014) I watched Blair Witch Project while I was doing my A-Levels and it's safe to say that I thought it was terrifying. Same with The Babadook, I watched this in the cinema last year and I don't think I've ever been so freaked out by a horror film in my life.


35. Poltergeist (1982)
33. Don't Look Now (1973)
32. Let The Right One In (2008)
30. It Follows (2014) I studied Don't Look Now when I was in Sixth Form and to be honest I wasn't too keen on it at first, but it definitely started to grow on me when we studied it in more detail.
I read Let the Right One In before I watched the film and I thought it was fantastic. I wasn't too sure that the film would be any good, but I thought it was almost as good as the book. I've added the Hollywood version to my list of films to watch but I don't think it will be as good as the Swedish version.


28. The Descent (2005)
26. The Others (2001)
25. 28 Days Later (2002)
22. Eyes Without a Face (1960)

20. Psycho (1960)
15. Rosemary's Baby (1968)
14. Wicker Man (1973)
13. The Cabin in The Woods (2012) The Wicker Man is another film I watched back when I was in Sixth Form, and to be honest I hated it. It wasn't my type of film to begin with but then we had to watch it over and over again.


10. Jaws (1975)
9. Pan's Labyrinth (2006)
5. Halloween (1978)
4. The Thing (1982) Jaws and Pan's Labyrinth are definitely two of my all-time favourite movies, I seen both of them more times than probably necessary.


3. Scream (1996)
2. Alien (1979)
1. The Shining (1980)
