Ranker.com ranked scary movies. I thought it would be perfect for Friday The 13th, which ironically, is not on the list.
Here we go…………

  • #10 - The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

    What. A. Movie! Personally, I would’ve ranked this one much higher. The thing about this movie is that there’s a lot of daylight scenes. A lot of horror films mask their movies with darkness. Oh, and this could really happen….that always adds to the freight.

  • #9 - It

    Who doesn’t love a scary clown? Great movie, the original and the newer one.

  • #8 - Poltergeist

    Great movie! Two words – They’re Here!

  • #7 - Psycho

    Where I heard that knife sounding music for the first time. Classic!

  • #6 - Nightmare On Elm Street

    Simply put, a mid-80s horror masterpiece. Well worth another watch. Freddy at his finest.

  • #5 - Halloween

    Just a classic! Creepy and methodical., that’s how I’d describe Michael Myers. I loved the Rob Zombie Halloween as well. Halloween Ends started out great, but fell apart fast. Not good.

  • #4 - The Shinning

    A bucket list thing for me to do is stay at the famous Stanley Hotel in Colorado. Man, what a great movie!

  • #3 - The Conjuring

    Scary and true. Edward Warren Miney and Lorraine Rita Warren were American paranormal investigators and at the center of this series. Great watching!

  • #2 - The Exorcist

    Some say this should be at #1, and they may be right. Just a shear scream classic!

  • #1 - The Silence Of The Lambs

    Just a classic! Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster were perfectly cast. Awesome movie!
