31 Essential, History-Making Horror Movies (Mashable.com)
..actually 33 :-D
"Dead-bolt the doors and face your fears. Whether you're a year-round horror-lover or more of a fair-weather fiend, spooky season is all about letting us mere mortals examine the extreme, fathom the fantastic, and sneak a peek at ridiculous realms unknown. To help you out and honor the GGOAT (that's the Greatest Genre Of All-Time), we've assembled a collection of 31 essential, history-making horror titles you can watch right now. As you might imagine, that was an astoundingly tricky task. Ergo, some parameters: (1) Movies are listed chronologically, and spread out across decades; (2) Directors are allotted one entry and one entry only; (3) In an effort to spotlight an array of horror trends, you won't get a bunch of the same kind of recommendation; (4) But in light of the previous rule, we reserve the right to recommend double-, triple-, and even quadruple-features as we see fit. Now, pick your poison." - mashable.com
