Oh man, there are some awesome movies waiting for you. I got the Arrow bluray of Audition from the library the other day, so I am going to pop that in on my rainy day off today. I also grabbed the 4k disc of what I assume is #1 on the countdown, so I watched that last night. I'm going to have stare at my top 15 and think about it more. I had it at 4, but I can't shake the feeling that I have replaced it at the tippy top of my list with other movies - like Let the Right One In, Hereditary, and [rec]. Anyway, can't wait for some reactions when people get to great movies they haven't yet because of this thread.
From the top 50:
Dawn of the Dead - Not sure why I missed most of this series
Frankenstein
Dracula

For me:
23. Train to Busan
I'm aware that it's supposed to be really good, just never got around to watching it (yet).

This was the first movie I saw where I understood the phrase "makes my skin crawl."

I haven’t seen Hereditary. Wife watched it without me years ago and I haven’t felt like watching on my own. I’ll get to it. Same with Midsommer I caught the last 30 minutes or so
Frostillicus

Also the remake with Jessica Biel is worth checking out soley for Jessica Biel. Generationally hot in that movie.

Agree and I hate it. Don’t like that movie at all, never want to see it again. I wish it didn’t exist lol.

I'm not there but I'm the outlier among those who had it on their lists, as I have it down at #70. I get that it's groundbreaking and I think it needs to be seen, but with all the great horror films that now exist, I find it more iconic than high-quality. I won't knock others that rate it higher, as I acknowledge its griminess, weird villains and implicit gore (as little actual gore is shown), including the chainsaw sounds, which convey pure terror.

This is exactly what I would go on and on about for why I have it rated so high. This movie just absolutely clicks with me on a visceral level. I probably rewatch it every couple of years.

Probably could have rated it my #1, because my top 3 are pretty much interchangeable. Seen them all numerous times.
TCM is a horror masterpiece
