Default IGN top 25 horror movies of all time.

Quote:
Coming up with a list of Top 25 Horror Films is a good way to weed out the manly sort from the pants pissers. You can spot 'em every time a jump scare happens, or a devil-possessed girl crab walks upstairs, or an alien missiles out of some poor bastard's chest.

A lot of big, fat scaredy cat tears were shed as we revisited the best of the best scary movies, just in time for All Hallow's Eve. Using overall movie quality, impact on the genre, legacy potential, fright/creepy factor and Editor's Choice, we assembled a list of movies that guarantee your date will want to stay the night, unless of course she grows tired of telling you to "stop crying 'Mommy'" or is too busy making fun of you for sleeping with a blankey to keep Freddy, Jason and Michael Myers away.

With each member of the Top 25, we cut right to the good part and call out a scary scene you need to watch with the lights on. Some of the movies here are more traditional horror fare, others are just damn twisted and creepy in a "permanently scarred for life" sorta way (e.g. The Silence of the Lambs). But all of them will scare the living s!@# out of you. So enjoy, and fire off your suggestions and hate-fueled opinions in the comments.

25. Friday The 13th (1980)
24. Scream
23. Dracula (1931)
22. The Haunting (1963)
21. The Blair Witch Project
20. Suspiria
19. Let The Right One In
18. An American Werewolf In London
17. Dawn Of The Dead (1978)
16. A Nightmare On Elm Street (1984)
15. The Thing
14. The Fly (1986)
13. Poltergeist
12. The Ring
11. Halloween (1978)
10. Night Of The Living Dead (1968)
09. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
08. Rosemary's Baby
07. Bride Of Frankenstein
06. The Shining
05. The Silence Of The Lambs
04. Alien
03. Jaws
02. Psycho
01. The Exorcist

Overall i think it is a pretty interesting list. I for the most part like it but i would movie things around like Halloween which is too low. Also no Evil Dead on the list is and it makes me . So what do you guys think of their top 25 list? I also wonder how it will compare to our top 31.

Here is the link for anyone that want to read their reasons for why movies are where they are on the list.
