Whaaaaat? Drag Me to Hell the best horror movie of the decade+2?! No way in… well… hell!
why not?
First of all: it wasn’t scary at all! The jokes where lame, the main character completely unlikable and the cheap CGI didn’t even get close to being gross. Drag me to Hell was Sam Raimi’s attempt to reconnect with the style of the Evil Dead movies, but failed miserably to capture that mix between scary and funny. It was a dud on both sides of that spectrum. I think I rated it with a 3/10, because some of the camera work and sound design wasn’t too bad. The whole thing really annoyed me, even though I was looking forward to it.
Yea it wasn’t much of good movie anyways. I prefer dawn of the dead as my top movie of the decade. That or Shaun of the dead. Movie was f***ing harious. Still need to watch 28 days later. Would you guys recommend it?
Yeah, 28 Later is pretty good. It falls apart a bit in the last act, like all of Alex Garland’s scripts seem to do, but that doesn’t hurt it much. I’d recommend it. It’s not really a zombie movie in the established sense of the term, though. The infected are very much alive but completely out of their mind. Kinda like The Crazies.

That Partysaurus Rex short was hilarious . So much fun lol
that was cool
Green Lantern never made the best horror movies list WTF in all seriousness though the only film worthy on that list was Let the right one in , as for me the film that had me on the edge of my seat was FROZEN I ll never going skiing again !
Frozen was messed up!
In reference to the horror movies list: What about Slither? A great blend of horror and comedy it just gets a pass? What about Rare Exports? That counts as a horror film, right?
Other than that, it was a pretty nice list. Personally, I would’ve dropped The Ring and Dawn of the Dead down a bit further on the list (9 for Dawn and 10 for Ring).
Stake Land would have deserved a place in that list as well, that movie was awesome.
Speaking of lands: Zombieland easily beats Drag Me to Hell in the comedy-horror department. And what about the The Hills Have Eyes remake? And Jeepers Creepers? Or Black Water? As usual with these lists some grade A material is getting snubbed by mediocre stuff. Ouf course I appreciate that it all lies in the eyes of the beholder, but still…
^This. See no critizing here
Totally agree with what you said.
Who else knew this list was gonna be B.S. as soon as the voice over started? These movies aren’t bad. Some are even great, but this is the kind of list you make if you don’t think too hard, and don’t ask anyone who knows about horror movies. It’s about as mainstream as it could get and still hold a little credibility. I think High Tension was only in there to convince people that they may know a little of what they are talking about.
Rec, Session 9, Dawn of the Dead. I would highly recommend Lake Mungo. It’s “found footage” meets “Dateline NBC” as a creepy ghost story.
yeah list had some good picks…but lets be real Shaun of the dead is not horror…its comedy and paranormal activity doesnt belong on a top ten list. I love zombie movies and I figuratively s*** my pants when I first saw 28 Days later. The Descent is an amazing movie…Let the right one in is an amazing horror movie (it belongs on one of the greatest of all time list)
Heres my top ten in no particular order.
The Strangers
The Grudge- The Original(2002)
Silent hill
jeepers creepers
28 days later
The Descent
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)
Let The right one in
The Human centipede
The Hills Have eyes (2006 unrated)
Honorable mentions for me were
The Ring & The Mothman Prophecies (I dident sleep for a week after that one)
Severance, A Tale Of Two Sisters and The Devil’s Backebone should be on that list.
