Top 5 Horror Films

1) 28 Days Later

The best "non-zombie" horror movie I've ever seen. It has that terror feeling that crawls up your back, and instead of the dead rising from the grave it's a Rage virus that pisses people off beyond Insanity.

2) Dawn of the Dead (2004)

Don't get me wrong, the original is a very good movie, I just liked the remake better. It's different than the original, different people, and different storyline (other than zombie invasion and they go into the mall)

3) IT

This is a long movie, with one side "the past" and the other "the present". Both are equally exciting. The movie didn't sound so good at first, but after seeing "It" I was glad I went to the theatre.

4) 28 Weeks later

After expecting an alright sequel, even though directed by someone different than the original, this movie is way different. The virus has been wiped out, and people are moving back to reconstruct their once great country. But the Virus breaks out for "unknown reasons" and starts the whole thing over again, bringing the gore, frights, and jumps back to the screen.

5) Final Destination

The two sequels that spawned after were good, but the original was the best. This movie kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. The deaths were great and the actors and plot were awesome too. Too bad it felt like more of a thriller, and less of a horror.

5) Hostel

This movie is gross, but at the same time really great. I still think they overdid some parts though. (Still gives me Nightmares!) Watch out for salad fingers.
