Top 10 Horror Films from 1966
-haven't seen 'em.

Top 5 Horror Films from 1965
1. Repulsion - good atmospheric Polanski
2. She - I thought this was a 19th century action/adventure classic written by H. Rider Haggard who also wrote King Solomon's Mines?

Top 10 Horror Films from 1964
1. Danse Macabre -haven't seen
2. Onibaba - God, I've got to see this! I haven't seen this or Woman in the Dunes.
3. Blood & Black Lace
4. Dr. Orloff's Monster
5. The Masque Of The Red Death - loved it. Corman and Price bring a B movie's grade up.
6. Kwaiden - loved it
7. The Gorgon
8. Ghidorah The Three Headed Minster - I think I saw this, but so many Godzillas blend together.
9. Godzilla vs. Mothra - this got them little singing girls in it? Moss-u-raaaah!
10. The Evil Of Frankenstein

Top 10 Horror Films from 1963
1. The Birds - hated it, although I liked that drunk Irish guy. "It's the end of the world."
2. The Haunting - s'alright

Top 10 Horror Films from 1962
1. Carnival Of Souls - surprisingly good
2. Whatever Happened To Baby Jane? -haven't seen
3. The Day Of The Triffids - I read the book. It was great.
4. King Kong vs. Godzilla - pretty sure Kong isn't that big, and he isn't energized by electricity.
5. The Awful Dr. Orloff

Top 10 Horror Films from 1961
1. The Innocents - saw the remake, read part of the book, didn't like either
2. The Curse Of The Werewolf
3. The Taste Of Fear
4. The Pit & The Pendulum - this looks good, supposed to be as good as Corman/Price's Masque of the Red Death.
5. Hercules In The Haunted World

Top 10 Horror Films from 1960
1. Psycho - hated it
2. The Brides Of Dracula
3. Peeping Tom - hated it
4. The Mask Of Satan
5. Eyes Without A Face - need to see
6. The City Of The Dead
7. Fall Of The House Of Usher
8. The Little Shop Of Horrors - quaint
9. Blood & Roses
10. The Two Faces Of Dr. Jekyll

HM: Village Of The Damned was good, but I just prefer the others. 1960 was an impressive year.
-My favorite was Ingmar Bergman's The Virgin Spring, later remade as The Last House on the Left

Top 5 Horror Films from 1959
1. Black Orpheus - I didn't think this was horror. I thought it was artsy garbage.
2. The Mummy
3. The Tingler - heard clips on radio shows making fun of this
4. The Return Of The Fly
5. The Hound Of The Baskervilles

HM: House On Haunted Hill - my pick for the year

I'm kind of cheating with Black Orpheus, but I don't care, its morbid, and contains a ton of horror elements, close enough.

Top 5 Horror Films from 1958
1. Horror Of Dracula
2. The Fly - bored me. like the remake better.

Top 10 Horror Films from 1957
-haven't seen

Top 5 Horror Films from 1956
1. Forbidden Planet - this is pure sci-fi based on a fantasy drama: Shakespeare's The Tempest. There's no horror.
2. Invasion Of The Body Snatchers - my pick for the year
4. Rodan - I remember disliking this. I don't think there was even Godzilla in it. Something about a volcano.

Astonishing Top 2, and yes Forbidden Planet is a horror film, they're taking on The Monster From The Id, that's psychological horror.

Top 5 Horror Films from 1955
1. Tarantula
2. Revenge Of The Creature
3. This Island Earth - the film they made fun of on the MST3K movie?
4. Diabolique - overrated
- I went with Night of the Hunter, a charismatic killer stalks two orphan children to get at money their father hid.

Top 3 Horror Films from 1954
1. Creature From The Black Lagoon
2. Godzilla King Of The Monsters
3. Them! - this really bothered me as a kid, my pick for the year

Awesome Top 3, but that's it.

Top 5 Horror Films from 1953
1. The War Of The Worlds - sci-fi
2. House Of Wax - my pick

Top 1 Horror Film From 1951
1. The Thing From Another World - my pick too

No Horror Films in 1952 & 1950.- I couldn't come up with one either.

Instead of doing a Top of each year for the 1940's and 1930's, since quite a few years have little to no horror films, I'll just do two Top 50's, one for each decade, and list the release year by the films.
-Sounds good.

 

Top 25 Horror Films Of The 1940's
1. The Wolf Man (1941) -decent
6. Cat People (1942) -hear it's good
15. Phantom Of The Opera (1943) -I think I've only seen the silent version

Top 25 Horror Films Of The 1930's
1. King Kong (1933) - good
2. Bride Of Frankenstein (1935) -great
3. Dracula (1931) - superb
4. The Invisible Man (1933) - kind of sucked
5. Frankenstein (1931) -great
10. Freaks (1932) -great
14. White Zombie (1932) - lousy
15. The Most Dangerous Game (1932) - not horror
18. The Mummy (1932) -s'alright, wish we'd gotten more zombie in bandages action instead of an old wizard though.
-You forgot the best one from the 30s, Fritz Lang's serial killer movie "M".

 

This is a fight you'll probably gain by not picking at all lol.
Wale has size, experience and a bigger punch.
While Ory has France
Prepared to be robbed!!

 

I hate most Hitchcock films. I never find them scary or thrilling and they bore me. Birds and Psycho are always silly and unrealistic when they try to be scary. Although, I did like Rope, The Trouble With Harry, Lifeboat, the ending of Strangers on a Train, the Salvador Dali scene in Spellbound, and the murder of Gromek in Torn Curtain. I loved how hard it was to kill one man (Gromek). I liked how they had to beat him, stab him, and ultimately gas him in the oven before he died, a little Rasputenesque. And it took minutes. I've often wished in action films instead of bad guys dying instantaneously from a single bullet wound the good guy would just maim or gutshot them; so then the ten guys he beats are down but are writhing in agony, crawling and bleeding. That would really change the glamorous nature of gunfights in Hollywood movies, and make people second guess the "good guys." It's realism that's horrific, not being attacked by stupid ****ing birds or a dude in a dress who's knife never makes contact with skin and then you fall magically down a flight of stairs like it's a goddamn slide.

And let's not forget you don't like Silence of the Lambs either.

The dude had a knife on the end of his camera. How gay is that? I can't stand fake crime in movies. It's like how in Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine people were always trying to commit the perfect crime. Murder in a locked room, with ice bullets or some poisonous tropical fish. Then Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler said "**** that!" And they gave us mobsters and bootleggers shooting each other. I want my serial killers to be real serial killers. I want Jack the Ripper slashing up prostitutes with a butchers knife or Ted Bundy bashing in co-ed's heads with a crowbar. Real is scary. Who needs Leatherface when the Toy Box Killer and Dean Corll are real?

With his amazing power he was going to rule the world. Oops, there's a little bit of snow on the ground. His plan is ruined.

Sure, those are horror films. Serial killers is horror. Way more horror than some of the sci-fi films you did list.

 

I like some metal, but I think most metal singers can't sing for ****. There are obvious exceptions. Dio I liked. Halford I like. It's those growlers that suck. Prog-metal and neo-classical metal often has front women who sing like opera singers, so they're good. But I've never cared for death or black metal. They seemed to dip into that punk thing which was more about tapping an emotion instead of perfecting technique.

Extreme Metal vocal technique has actually come a long way and some of it's pretty advanced, but I can easily see why it's not for most people.

 

Nothing more relaxing than some good old DCD.
