Top 10 Horror Films of All Time

No.10 Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974 In its 40th anniversary year, Texas gets a place in your top 10 horror films, and a deserved place it is.	No.9 Rosemary's Baby (1968) Roman Polanski's addition to list is one of the greatest psychological thrillers there is!
No.7 Suspiria (1977) Dario Argento's cinematic delight, famed for its use of colour and music to keep us all hiding behind our hands.	No.7 Psycho (1960) The oldest film on our list and one of the first to use the modern horror conventions that we use so regularly.
No.6 Friday the 13th (1980) A Halloween favourite and one that has been screened at many a sleepover to give us the spooks.	No.5 The Thing (1982) The youngest on our list and at 32 years old, gives us an idea of where the horror genre has been taken since.
No.4 Alien (1979) Ridley Scott's use of visual effects brings this frightful movie all too close to reality.	No.3 The Exorcist (1973) William Friedkin scarily brings a possessed child to life, with some gruesome and memorable images.
No.2 Halloween (1978) John Carpenter's masterpiece uses all the horror conventions perfectly to create an interesting and horrifying example of the horror genre. Also, Carpenter's second entry in this list, the only director with two films.	No.1 The Shining (1980) A deserved winner and not only one of the best horror films, but maybe one of the best films ever made. Stanley Kubrick was a genius!
