Grab Your Popcorn, Blanket (to hide under), and Prepare for a Spooky Night

1. Alien (1979) An alien born on a spaceship kills crew members one by one. Good and gross.
2. The Birds (1963) This Hitchcock film was on T.V. last night...I love it! The birds are attacking people...but why?
   
3. The Blair Witch Project (1999) OK, this one scared me! Is this documentary true? I think so.
4. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919) Dr. Caligari is a magician and hypnotist who gets people to do his dirty work.
5. Carrie (1976) Based on a Stephen King novel, Carrie uses her powers to get back at the mean kids.
6. Diabolique (1955) The headmaster's wife and his mistress plot his murder.
7. The Exorcist (1973) My vote for all time scariest movie! The original, not the remake.
8. Halloween (1978) Michael Myers stabs his sister to death on Halloween and 15 years later goes after three teen babysitters.
9. The Haunting (1963) During a research project to prove the existence of ghosts, Hill House, a large mansion comes alive. Based on the book, The Haunting of Hill House.

11. The Night of the Living Dead (1968) One dark and spooky night seven people take refuge in a farmhouse as the night of the living dead begins. Named by some as the best fright film ever.
12. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) Freddy, the burn victim-child killer loves teens!
13. Nosferatu (1922) This is a silent film and is the very first adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. It follows the book closely, and is considered the best vampire movie ever made, and includes the ugliest vampire in film history.
14. Poltergeist (1982) Spirits make contact with the family's youngest girl, and abducts her into their world.
15. Psycho (1960) Another great Hitchcock film! The scarriest of them all! The Bates Motel shower scene kept many from taking showers ever again.
16. Repulsion (1965) An asocial depressed Belgian girl who lives in London has dark forces tormenting her into insanity.
17. Rosemary's Baby (1968) A young pregnant wife's husband makes a deal with the devil that involves Rosemary's Baby.
18. Seven (1995) A mystery-thriller where homicide detectives must solve a series of puzzling murders that have been based on the seven deadly sins.
19. The Shining (1980) Jack and his family take on the duties of caretakers for a beautiful old hotel in the Colorado Rockies. Jack becomes possessed and goes after his family, who have been stranded due to the weather. But his freaky kid has a psychic gift..."REDRUM".
20. The Silence of the Lambs (1991) FBI trainee Clarisse Starling uses her skills to get Hannibal the Cannibal Lecter to help her catch a serial killer.
21. The Sixth Sense (1999) An 8-year-old sees dead people. There is only one who can help him, his psychologist who tries to uncover the truth. This has a must-see surprise ending.
22. Suspiria (1978) An American ballet student goes to Germany and comes across a coven of witches who run her school. Stabbings, maggot attacks, hangings, and glass mangling makes this one of the goriest films ever. The razor-wire scene is truly intense.
23. The Other (1972) Bad things happen to people who get too close to these twins. The grandmother realizes that one of the twins is evil and tries to protect the other.
24. Freaks (1932) Love and betrayal in the traveling circus with real human "freaks" playing themselves, except for the chicken woman, this film has no special effects! Creepy!
25. Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000) Dark, creepy, original, and smart! You must see this film.
26. The Wicker Man (1973) An investigator goes to a remote island to find a missing girl only to find his place inside the wicker man in a druidic ceremony.
27. Eraserhead (1977) Considered the greatest cult movie ever, it is deeply unsettling. We dare you to not reach for the remote in the scene of Eraserhead trying to feed his misshapen "son." It might be the single most disturbing movie scene ever.
28. The Devil's Backbone (2001) A young boy is in a secluded haunted orphanage during the Spanish Civil War. The ghosts are the least frightening aspects of this film.
29. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) This is the original, not the remake! I love the part where the old man sucks the blood out of the girls finger. They say this was based on a true story.
30. An American Werewolf in London (1981) This film has the best transformation scene ever.
