Oh man, I voted Manhunter in the poll, but I just realized The Vanishing is the biggest snub by far, what a classic. Probably would have put it 3rd but it's right up there with The Shining & The Thing.

Yeah this is so loaded with great choices, I could easily do like a Top 50. Really wanted to included Golden Slumbers / Carry That Weight / The End, which is essentially one song but I'm not sure if it'd be counted as such.

Though The Shining towards the top of people's lists feels kind of default judging against the rest of the list, I dare anyone who listed it as #1 to watch it again in a theatre or without any distractions (book/phone/Shining as background) and see how it holds up to you. The movie is a slog.
Watched it in the theater for the first time this past Halloween. It held my full attention the entire time and I appreciated it even more, great experience.

The soundtrack hit even harder too

Yeah thanks for running this Snake. I know I dissed on 80s horror some but it was still great revisiting some of these, especially the Top 2.

Might do a Stephen King ranking later, but I wanna say that Gerald's Game is really fantastic and scary, had no expectations going in and it freaked me out in a great way. By far Mike Flannigan's best work imo.

Jack Nicholsons performance is what stopped The Shining from ranking higher for me, and turned a potential 5/5 into a 4/5. Its cartoonish when it shouldnt be, and he just feels fundamentally miscast. I warned there was a hot take coming back near the start! But yeah hes pretty bad in this. Its not that its a maximalist performance, its that hes acting like a deranged madman when hes not supposed to be to the point that it strains believability that anybody would not instantly run from this man.

Phenomenal movie that I've only come to appreciate more over time. Jack Nicholson puts in one of the all-time great horror performances, adding lots of character, terror and humor. I used to think Shelly Duvall was over-the-top hysterical, but now I feel she does a great job as a truly loving mother & wife who helplessly watches the situation spiral out of control, yet still acts heroically in saving Danny. Goes without saying but Stanley Kubrick is a visual genius.

Stephen King's reaction to the film adaptation still cracks me up, especially when the TV miniseries came out that was more "in line with his vision", and it sucked lol.

BTW is this the first time a movie got the majority of first place votes, but didn't win?

Possession is next or I eat my hat and film it

My problem with it is that the main characters start at a 10/10 emotionally and just stay there, they're hysterical from the start. Plus you have these over-the-top camera movements that almost make you nauseous. Your story's clearly not very strong if you think you need these ridiculous camera movements to make us "feel" it.

And I'm also going to unfairly compare any 'break-up horror' movie to Midsommar for all time.

I think its Possession now. A top four of The Thing, The Shining, The Fly and Nightmare on Elm Street just sounds right.

Glad to drag Predator down, what an incredibly boring movie. An "action-horror" movie that doesn't have any action or scares, was just waiting for it to end almost as soon as it started. How they thought this was a suitable rival for 'Alien', aside from box offices numbers, I don't know.

No, I cannot agree with that at all. The first one is a genuinely scary 'Cabin in the Woods' movie, not a huge fan of the hit & miss slapstick & other gags in the sequel. Gimme the original any day.
