The Ring at #100?
And then Ringu is at #45?
One of the few Japan-horror remakes that wasn't worse than the original. They can't be 55 places apart.
Way better than half the movies ahead of it.
I mean I loved Re-Animator as a kid...but it's not scary like The Ring.

Jaws seems too low.
Jaws caused almost everyone who watched it to be scared of the water...or at least think for a second when going into the water....many long after initially seeing the movie. Feel like it should be top 3 at worst.

The Shining should not be number 1.

I also find it odd that Halloween III made the list but Scream 2 did not. Scream 2 is one of those rare slasher sequels that hold up pretty well to the original. It's scarier and much more intense.

Scream is the one horror film that literally tortured me as a kid and gave me nightmares and it's 27?? 
At least Jaws, Alien, and Night of the Living Dead are in the top 10 where they belong.
There's some films on there I wouldn't think should be considered horror, like Misery (great film, but it's more of a thriller) and Halloween III really? Also there's films on here that are pure crap like The House of the Devil.
I get that it's subjective, but not that great of a list.

The top 15 is pretty legit. I'd reorder it a little bit but hard to argue those movies shouldn't be up there.
No way Get Out is a top 30 horror movie of all time.

are jaws and silence of the lambs really horror movies?

Would've been number 1 if they ended the movie 5 minutes earlier than they did.

Should be #1. When this movie came out, they handled all of it so perfectly. The marketing was incredible.
Posted on 10/20/17 at 8:05 pm to RollTide1987
I'd put Sinister on the list ahead of The Conjuring, although I liked them both.
And where the hell is Event Horizon? Should have been on there somewhere.

How about Let The Right One In vs. Let Me In? Never saw the American version, but I heard it was weak.
Posted on 10/20/17 at 8:18 pm to jg8623
meh, when I think of greatest horror movie the first thought is "Well was the movie fricking scary?"
Of everything on that list those two are the only two movies that were remotely scary. Everything else was bullshite in terms of actually being scary

So only 2 of the 100 were remotely scary

Nah, I haven't seen all 100, but I've seen at least 25-35. Nope, none were scary. I don't know what to tell you.
I laughed throughout the Exorcist

Horror/scary is very subjective. I didn’t think Blair Witch was that scary but I get why many liked it. And this year I didn’t think IT was scary at all but many did. It’s just one of those things where there’s no right or wrong answer
But if you can’t understand why The Shining, Psycho, Halloween, etc. are at the top then idk what to tell you

I understand why they are at the top. I enjoy the movies, and agree they are incredibly well written/directed/acted etc.
They just don't scare me, so they're not my top horror movies.

I gotcha. Halloween scared the shite out of me as a kid, that would probably top the scary list for me
