Rolling Stone Magazine's 60 Greatest Horror Movies of the 21st Century

"So we've assembled our take on the 60 best horror films of the 21st century – the zombie-apocalypse tales, things-that-go-bump-in-the-psyche ghost stories, retro-slasher flicks, neo-giallo nuggets, J-horror, K-horror, French extreme and Hollywood franchise films that have spooked us, shook us and scared us shitless since 2000. As in any committee-led process, our highly opinionated writers and experts argued over what constituted being included/categorized here (Mulholland Drive belongs on every list of the Greatest Films of the Millennium; whether it's genuinely a "horror" film, however, is still up for debate). But the ranked list of films here are guaranteed to have you repeating to yourself, "It's only a movie … it's only a movie… it's only a movie …"."
