Greatest Horror Movies

This blog isn't intended to only discuss the "greatest horror movies" ever made, although I hope to discuss the greatest horror movies ALONG WITH some really good horror movies and maybe even some really bad horror movies. In fact, don't be surprised if you see some of the "worst horror movies" ever made covered here too. ("Greatest Horror Movies" was one of the only horror movie related titles I could find still available on Blogger.)

The plan is for me to watch a horror movie every day and post about it here. Naturally I'm going to try to see some of the greatest horror movies ever made. I can give you an opinion right now about what are some of the greatest horror movies ever made. In no particular order, and this isn't meant to be a complete list, some of the greatest horror movies ever made include:
  • Night of the Living Dead
  • Dawn of the Dead
  • Halloween
  • The Birds
  • Psycho
  • The Thing
  • Rosemary's Baby
I'll probably disagree with a lot of horror movie fans, which is okay, since they'll be disagreeing with me also. For example, Delicatessen is highly-rated by some horror fans, but I thought it was nonsense, and not even good nonsense.

Who am I? My name is Randy Ray, and I own Eerie Books, an all-horror books and collectibles store located in historic downtown Wylie Texas. Owning a horror bookstore doesn't make me an expert on horror movies, but I love horror movies, and I like writing about horror movies, so here are my opinions, available for anyone who's interested in discussing horror movies to see and comment on.

Some of the horror movies I'm writing about here I'm seeing for the first time, but some of them I've seen before. I'll mention which of the two it is when I post, but only if I think it's relevant or helpful to my review of each movie.

If you have ideas and/or opinions about the greatest horror movies ever made, or about the worst horror movies ever made, leave a comment here or contact me and let me know. I'll watch and write about movies on request. Like I said, I plan to watch a horror movie every day and write about it here, so I'll need some ideas eventually.
