An American Werewolf in London (1981)
John Landis's classic horror movie is the shit. It is about two American students that are on a walking tour of England and are attacked by a Werewolf. One is killed, the other is mauled. The survivor, David , is taken in by the nurse at the hospital while realizing that he has become a werewolf. The effects of the transformation into a wolf are the best and the scenes where David's dead friend haunt him are the tops.

Night of the Demons (1988)
NOTD is about a group of teens who decide to have a Halloween party up at the deserted funeral parlor. They accidentally awaken a demon while having a seance and the demon enters the bodies of the two women who are throwing the party. Steve Johnson did some of the makeup design effects and they are some of the scariest I have seen in any movie especially Angela and Suzanne. The story of how the demons came to be is cool, but they kind of F*%! it up in the sequels. They are OK movies but the first one rules the schools.

George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2007)
George A. Romero does it again. The man who invented the zombie genre starts it back from the beginning and it kicks major ass. The film starts with a group college students making a movie when the dead start to walk the earth. The film is all "shot" by the students and it is in documentary form. The effects rule and the story is awesome. WATCH THIS MOVIE!

Silent Hill (2006)
This is probably one of the best if not the best adaption of video game into a movie. Silent Hill is a town with a mysterious history that has evil lurking around every corner.The art direction,atmosphere, and the amazing cinematography are all taken stright from the game. The story is awesome but it may be hard for some people to follow if they have not played the game.

Near Dark (1987)
Near Dark is a vampire movie is very different then other vampire movies.It is about a family of vamps that travel around the country feeding. It stars some of the same actors from Aliens like Jenette Goldstein,Bill Paxton, and Lance Henriksen. Like most Bill Paxton moves He has some of the best lines in cinema."Howdy. I'm gonna separate your head from your shoulders. Hope you don't mind none. " And the bar scene is the Tops.

The Mist (2007)
It has been awhile since a really good horror movie that is not a torture film that is in the main stream of horror. The Mist is based on a Stephen King story by the same name. The Mist is similar to John Carpenter's The Fog which was written around the same time 'but has many differences.The film has a lot of undertones of how society acts in times of crisis, much like a Romero film. The visual effects are good but the practical effects are great. But then again the guys KNB effects group always do a good job. Over all a great horror movie with an awesome ending.
