Black Swan
Really Great 29 Points 2010

A fantastic movie starring Natalie Portman as the all-consumed ballerina Nina who lives with her equally consumed and obsessive mother Erica (Barbara Hershey). Nina is lined up for the top spot for her Ballet company, the Swan queen, but she doesn’t quite live up to the director Thomas’ (Vin…

The Strangers
Very Good 31 Points 2008

HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP.

THIS MOVIE WAS SCARY.

I’m not good at scary movies — I get scared too easily, and should avoid them. I didn’t avoid this when I was alone in my hotel room one night and it was on HBO. I wish I hadn’t watched it, because it d…

Halloween
Really Great 32 Points 1978

A classic that remains as powerful and amazing as it was nearly 30 years ago. This low budget masterpiece is what horror was originally all about, and spawned generations of imitations, a remake and 7 sequels that never lived up to the same level. This film has developed a cult following and to …

Natural Born Ki...
Good 36 Points 1994

A macabre tale of a twisted couple (Woody Narrelson and Juliette Lewis) who road-trip along route 666 (yeah, that’s right – route 666) on a killing spree that serves as the backdrop for director Oliver Stone’s almost psychedelic filming style. This is a cult movie to be sure – but unlike othe…

Paranormal Acti...
Great 40 Points 2009

Sometimes a simple approach is best, and “Paranormal Activity” proves it. This movie gets us all in touch with those scary times all of us have experienced when things go bump in the night. Never having to result to gore, or that cheesiness that most of us have come to expect in popular teen h…

The Orphanage
Great 52 Points 2007

I didn’t know this was going to be a Spanish language film when I rented it — but I stuck with the first 10 minutes… and boy I’m glad I did. I’m not even much of a horror movie fan, but the Orphanage managed to thrill and scare without all the usual horror movie cliche’s and the gripping stor…
