It doesn't take much to stray from the horror path that I enjoy.
I like Doctor Sleep and Prey quite a bit.

What is the modern equivalent of Abbott and Costello? If there isn’t one, maybe it is time.

Love this one (of course, as it's on my list). The 1970's Era adds so much to this, both as to its own environment as well as it being the genesis of the media reporting child abductions. Real or imagined, taps into the fears a lot of us had when we were that age.

A Tale of Two Sisters
I can't remember which was first between this and another I am sure will be in the top 200, but I equate this movie with me falling for foreign horror movies. It sucks it's not streaming anywhere, as I had to track down the 1 DVD in our library system for a rewatch this week. It was every bit as freaky, confusing, and messed up as I remember it being. I've recommended this one many times. What is it with this part of the world and scary bags that may or may not have bodies in them???
After the rewatch, I think this one would be around #15 for me.

Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon
Seriously, WTF greenlit that name? Terrible name, great underrated movie. Here we have movie based in a world were Freddy and Micheal are real, and a doc crew agrees to follow Leslie around as he trains and shows us some tricks of the slasher killer game. He is training to become the next big name in slashers. It's funny, it has some great cameos and references, and it is actually a good entry into the slasher genre.

Hmmm...good question. We don't really have comedy teams like that anymore. It used to be pretty common: Abbot and Costello, Marx Brothers, Bing and Bob Hope, Cheech and Chong, Martin and Lewis. Nick Frost and Simon Pegg were pretty great together. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler as well.

Another recommendation for this. One of the most unique premises you'll find in horror and executed very well.

The box art didn't help it's cause either. It was a hard sell at the video store.

Amazing the positioning of these Honorable Mentions on people's lists that didn't make the cut. Some really good flicks. Most have been ranked in the 20's and 30's I believe.

This was really hard to leave off for me. Also the movie my wife and I saw on our first date. I rpobably should have had it on my list. My bad.

I was the only one to rank this so obviously I really like it. I think it did a great job retelling the story without overshadowing the original nor failing to live up to it. If you haven't seen it yet because you aren't sure of the whole remake/reboot thing, see it. See it now.

There's some other movie with the same title that keeps confusing JustWatch - I should just rent this sometime, but I keep thinking it might show up on a streaming service.

I'll take the claim on this one! Discovered it in high school as my friends and I would rent horror movies every weekend. The cover alone sold it and it was my introduction to Peter Jackson before LOTR fame. I have two of his other movies on my list as well. Just a goofy fun ridiculous movie that holds a special place in my childhood, of which I still quote "Mmmm, I got a chunky bit" quite often.

I definitely had a thing for Jennifer Love Hewitt back in the day, but she is a terrible actress. She and Freddie Prinze Jr graduated from the open mouth, confused stare school of dramatic arts. The killer makes no sense, but I went with it. I actually like the second one more because it embraces the bonkers, while this one tries to play it straight.

Not a fan of this one, though in terms of split personality movies, my favorite is probably Identity. That movie is nuts.

Hell yeah - Messiah of Evil, baby!!
Both 80s and I watched that last season and both really dug the weird, Lynchian atmosphere. I had never heard of the movie, but it was included in a discussion from The Pure Cinema podcast I was listening to.

Any good recommendations on movie podcasts? I've had a few over the years but none right now. I'm looking for something accessible, not too deep - willing to enjoy a fun movie rather than dissect it too much, willing to try to enjoy movies of all genres.

Identity was great.
Split was downright disturbing. Extremely well acted. I just did not care for the whole Mr Glass, Unbreakable tie in at the end. I don’t feel it made it better. It kinda cheapened it for me.
