Best Horror Movies
Browse Movies Now I've always been a huge fan of the best horror movies. As a kid, I couldn't wait for "Dimension 13" on Friday nights and would watch in horror as monsters marched across the screen, devouring the unsuspecting. As an adult, I prefer the spooky and eerie over the light and romantic. It's weird, but I'm sure other horror fans can relate.
I find those films based on a ghost story to be the best horror movies. In fact, of all the creepy, scary movies available, ghost movies have a tendency to reach deep down and scare me more than even the bloodiest, goriest of the others. There's something about a menacing, unseen force that grips my attention and really makes me squirm. And movies like The Ring, Shutter, and The Grudge are some of my favorites.
By the way, for lazy people like me or for people on a budget, there are a couple ways you can watch horror movies without having to spend a fortune or even get out of your pajamas.
The first is Graboid .
It's a video service that offers high quality, legal downloads right on your pc. These are full length films, some in HD, and they boast a library of over 150,000 selections. I like it because when I'm bored, I can grab a movie on my laptop. It beats paying $100-a-month cable bills! They have a free trial that you can take advantage of right this minute, but after the trial is over, it's cheaper than Blockbuster, Netflix and the others.
The other service is Amazon on demand movies. Again, cheaper than Blockbuster and available at home without leaving the house, they have a great selection of horror movies, which you can see here. You know these guys and probably already know their service is great.
So in case my reviews get you in the mood, you now have two ways to get your movie immediately without having to get up, start the car and fight traffic to your local video store.
But I digress. Back to the reviews.
Horror movies have gone through quite an evolution over the past few decades and I've been watching right along. In the 80's were the slasher flicks featuring serial killers like Jason and Michael Meyers. Then along came the not-so-imaginary dream host, Freddy Krueger who would tear you to shreds while you slept. Then came virus movies like 28 Days Later and Quarantine. And my least favorite, torture flicks. Saw, Touristas and Vacancy have their fans, of course, but I still prefer a ghost movie.
At any rate, I love horror movies. I'm providing reviews so in the event you don't know what to watch, maybe I can help you find something.
I intend to provide horror movie clips if available, so you can get a sneak peek at each film along with its review. Please feel free to add your own comments and ratings if you've had a chance to view one of these movies.

I'll be honest. The acting is sub par and the lighting/effects leave a lot to be desired. At times, this movie is actually technically embarrassing. Yet ...
