Having Child’s Play at number 100 is unhinged behavior smh

Misery should’ve been on this list

I’m just happy that horror movies from the 1970s were well represented in the top 25. Carrie, The Omen, Suspiria, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Jaws, Halloween, Alien and The Exorcist. The 1970s was the best decade of horror ever. A lot of underrated horror movies in that decade as well. Like Magic from 1978 starring Anthony Hopkins and 1977’s Martin by George Romero.

Lots of great horror movies in the following decade (1973-1982): - The Exorcist (1973) - The Wicker Man (1973) - The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) - Jaws (1975) - The Omen (1976) - Carrie (1976) - Suspiria (1977) - Dawn of the Dead (1978) - Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) - Halloween (1978) - Alien (1979) - The Shining (1980) - An American Werewolf in London (1981) - The Thing (1982)

Child's Play being so low is criminal

#1: Halloween (1978)

Just saw Hereditary two nights ago and wow is that a spectacular horror film. Indeed one of the best ever!

My top 8 most favorite slasher film classics are: 1. ‘Psycho.’ 2. John Carpenter’s ‘Halloween.’ 3. ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street.’ 4. ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.’ 5. ‘Scream.’ 6. ‘Child’s Play.’ 7. ‘Sleepaway Camp.’ 8. ‘Friday the 13th.’

I agree. Psycho is definitely the greatest horror movie. The twists in the movie were absolutely diabolical for it's time. The soundtrack, all strings, takes you on an unforgettable journey of madness and horror. The shrieking of the violins still haunt me.

Here are my top 5 favorite science fiction/horror classic movies: 1. ‘Alien.’ 2. ‘The Thing.’ 3. ‘Aliens.’ 4. ‘Predator.’ 5. ‘The Cabin in the Woods.’

I'm sadden to see People under the Stairs was not mentioned. I feel it's been lost to time. truly a sad horror film and one of my favs.

I think this is going to be fun, btw can you guys do a top 100 greatest heroes of all time? Please? 😊

216: Going to be honest here, I’m not really a horror fan but I do love the Scream franchise. Rest in Peace, Wes Craven

Minor quibbles, but overall a good list. It's hard to pick from the top three, but I'd put Exorcist over Psycho. Disappointed that Talk To Me didn't make the list - it's fantastic! Also where is event horizon? Best scifi horror movie ever!

Child’s Play should’ve been higher! Also Halloween deserves top 5!

‘Night of the Living Dead.’ ‘Dawn of the Dead.’ ‘Day of the Dead.’ ‘Planet Terror.’ ‘Shaun of the Dead.’ ‘World War Z.’ ‘Zombieland.’ ‘Return of the Living Dead.’ These are my top 8 favorite zombie movies. 🧟‍♀️🧟🧟‍♂️

I can't wait to dive into this video! I love horror movies and I love a long WatchMojo countdown video!

Carrie (1976) is one of the BIGGEST INSPIRATION to Brynhildr in the Darkness (2014). Brynhildr in the Darkness (2014) would have never existed if wasn't for Carrie (1976) Carrie (1976) is one of the Best Horror Movies of ALL-TIME and Brynhildr in the Darkness (2014) is one of the Best Horror Anime of ALL-TIME. Carrie (1976) and Brynhildr in the Darkness (2014) are true Horror Classics.

Child’s Play was way too low on the list.

To tell you the truth, we absolutely LOVE your new top 100 list video. As slasher/horror film fans, we thank you, WatchMojo, keep up the good work. 😁

The most objective top 10 list I usually find on internet is: 10)Night of the living dead 1968 9)Rosemary's baby 1968 8)Jaws 1975 7)The thing 1982 6)Alien 1979 5)Psycho 1960 4)The shining 1980 3)Halloween 1978 2)The exorcist 1973 1)Texas chainsaw massacre 1974 For me, instead of Jaws and Rosemary's baby, should be Nosferatu 1922 and Don't look now 1973

Ooh this is gonna be fun! My top 3 favorites are The Fog (original), Halloween (1st one), and Blair Witch Project. My prediction for the top 2 are Psycho and The Exorcist.

Signs and The Shining are truly some of my favorite movies ever. The Signs slow jumpscare with the aliens, and the plot of The Shining are incredibly well done. I love those movies so, so much.

No Sinister to be found on the list? That's unfortunate since "science" proved that Sinister has a big impact on someone's body, brain and heartbeat.... but loved the video and have a couple of movies put in my watchlist

I'm not sure I could do a top 100, so here are my top 50: 50.) Phantasm (1979) 49.) Jeepers Creepers (2001) 48.) Dog Soldiers (2002) 47.) Salem's Lot (1979) 46.) The People Under the Stairs (1991) 45.) From Dusk 'Till Dawn (1997) 44.) Hatchet (2006) 43.) Even Horizon (1997) 42.) The Blair Witch Project (1999) 41.) The Black Phone (2021) 40.)

Friday the 13th Part 6: Jason Lives (1986)

The Wailing being that far down the list hurts. It’s criminally underrated and unappreciated

the conjuring and insidious deserve to be at least top 25 and also sinister should be on here

Us and Midsommer deserved to be in the list. 2 modern horror masterpieces.

Terrifier is great, I hope we also see Talk To Me that is the best horror movie of the last 3 years. Smile is creepy, Annabelle Comes Home, The Nun 1, Silent Hill, Hereditary all gold.

Hereditary was honestly the best horror movie I've seen, great visuals, acting, and storyline.

The Others is another masterpiece that deserved to be within the top 20.

My top 5 horror films are Jaws, Alien, The Thing (1982), Halloween and The Fly (1986)

I never thought my mom and dad would admit they saw some of these horror movies such as The Silence of the Lambs in 1991

My top 20 horror movies: 1. Alien 2. The Thing (1982) 3. The Exorcist 4. The Shining 5. Jaws 6. Halloween (1978) 7. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) 8. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) - I like the remake too 9. Night of the Living Dead 10. The Conjuring 11. The Others 12. Psycho 13. Child’s Play (1988) 14. Scream 15. The Silence of the Lambs 16. Invasion of the Body Snatchers 17. The Omen 18. The Descent 19. Evil Dead (2013) - the entire franchise is very good 20. The Ring

Happy Halloween 👻🎃

If Phantasm isn't on the list I'll have every one of them arrested.

Black Christmas is one of the best slashers

Thank you for the update, WatchMojo..!! This is an awesome collection of the best horror movies. I haven't watched more than half of the movies on the list. 🤣

How in the world does psycho beat The Exorcist? Exorcist is way scarier than psycho....😂

The original SCREAM is my favourite.

"Freaks" is one of my favorite movies, horror or otherwise!

I love and respect WatchMojo, but this is easily their most controversial list to date.

Great list! However, no Bram Stoker's Dracula? :(

Halloween is my top 1 horror movie ever

Thanks for the list; I have been waiting for this

Not a bad list. Missing movies like Ginger Snaps and Doctor Sleep

Psycho 2 is the most underrated horror movie. It is easily better than a lot of horror movies on this list but I've never seen it on any top horror movies countdown. Anthony Perkins returns as Norman Bates and again his performance was great along with his co star Meg Tilly.

The Exorcist is 1 of the 10 best American films of all time 💯. Should be numero uno in horror 💯

My top 5... 5. The Oman 4. Night of the living dead 3. Halloween 2. Dawn of the dead 1. The Exorcist

Silent era horror movies are just as good as their talking counterparts!

Sinister not being on this list is a crime

The fact Barbarian and any movie from the Conjuring universe is in this list but MIDSOMMAR ISN'T breaks my soul

Was mindlessly going to watch youtube the next few hour. Then i see this absolute banger pop up. Thanks watchmojo❤

I bet number 1’s gonna be Psycho

This is gonna be an awesome video. Can’t wait to see all the slasher films and monster films.

Before the premiere starts,I can surely confirm that the no.1 horror movie is going to be "The Exorcist" As always 😑😑

While some of my favorites didn’t even make this “Top 100,” I’m satisfied with your list. Classics are classics not because they’re old, but because they inspired everything that came after.

I’m shocked and appalled that Killer Klowns from Outer Space was not #1 nor even on the list.

215: Don’t tell me, you’re going to mention Evil Dead, Terrifier, Child’s Play, Bride of Chucky, Happy Death Day, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scream, Scream VI, A Nightmare On Elm Street, Freddy vs Jason, Trick R Treat, Suspiria, Halloween, Evil Dead Rise, The Conjuring, It and Freaks

Great list compiled here. 70's well represented, and it's very well deserved. Two titles, that were left out, come to mind. "Amityville Horror" has been on most lists that I encounter, for as long as I can remember. "When A Stranger Calls", with Carol Kane, is one that I believe should be on all lists, just because of the impact its climax had on society. Babysitting took a very noticeable hit, for a short time, after the release of this movie.

I'm glad 'It Follows' was included in this list, enjoyable video!

No Amityville Horror??

Evil Dead 1 should've been on the list, not necessarly in front of ED2, but it really deserved.

I bet The Exorcist is going to be number one

I'll never forget you WatchMojo. You set this on 4:00 am and that's the perfect time for dreads and I was getting haunted by the creepiness of the old movies lmao

# 10 “get out” 😂😂😂 lmfao noooo

Tony Todd was awesome as Candyman!

Sleepy hollow is my favorite horror movie!

Sinister, Final Destination and Misery should be on the list!

My top 5 1. The Thing 1982 2. When evil lurks 3. Hereditary 4. Evil Dead 2013 5.The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)

This is going to be epic, WatchMojo never disappoints me, really looking forward to the arguments in the comment section as well. 🎃🔪

Fallen was a great horror. You never knew who you could trust.

Hereditary being 15 is an insult. Y’all only put some of these classics high because they’re classics. Some modern horror is lowkey better than the classics but okay

This was perfect, what a great way to get through work 🎃🎃🎃

terrifer on the list? watchmojo has my respect

I love this channel even more thank you watch mojo for making this i love the horror genre like death

#1Halloween #2Friday the 13th #3 Saw #4 A haunting in Connecticut #5 I am legend #6 Freddy vs Jason #7 children of the Corn 🌽 #8 Chucky

Just watched the Omen yesterday. Horror Movies are my favorite genre of movies ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Pennywise is so much scarier than Saw, Scream, Halloween and much others.

My top horror films A Nightmare on elm street, Scream, Friday the 13th, Final Exam, Scream For Help, The Sentinel, I, Madman, CANDYMAN, Audition, RINGU, and Uzumaki!

218: I bet you wouldn’t mention this but there’s a new horror movie called Totally Killer. Combination of Scream and Back To The Future

Scooby-Doo VS Courage! Dogfight Frights!

Great video WatchMojo.

Very good list. I love horror movies and horror cornrows as well.

Mulholland Drive not being #1 would be insane since it’s literally regarded as the best movie ever

Other great horror movies that Watchmojo missed out on: Kwaidan, Onibaba, The Vanishing, Possession, Shaun of the Dead, House, Drag Me to Hell, Nosferatu the Vampyre, Dracula 1958, Black Sabbath, Deep Red, The Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, Aliens, Vampyr, Dead of Night

630: Le Manoir du Diable The best known of these early supernatural-based works is the 3-minute short film Le Manoir du Diable (1896), known in English as both "The Haunted Castle" or "The House of the Devil". The film is sometimes credited as being the first ever horror film.

Nothing can beat The Exorcist. It's a timeless, iconic and legendary horror movie.

The SAW franchise is definitely in my Top 3.

Are you serious?!??????!!! Chucky rank number 100?????? Omg I'm done watching this joke video

The Hills Have Eyes 2006, The Mothman Prophecies 2002, Dark Skies 2013, Fire in the Sky 1993, The Hidden 1987, Screamers 1995, The Changeling 1980, Pulse 1988, 30 Days of Night 2007, Fright Night 1985, 1408 2007, Smile 2022, When a Stranger Calls 1979, When a Stranger Calls Back 1993, Body Snatchers: The Invasion Continues 1993

Fantastic list! Predicted the top 3. Have always been a fan of Freaks!! Freddy will always be the best "slasher" villain due to the fact it "lives/lived" in the dream world!! However, one that doesn't seem to ever hit any list, and don't know if it would be considered "horror", "The Night of the Hunter" should be on it.

I was 21 when The Exorcist came out. Stood in line to see it. Amazingly horrifying at the time. Even though I love The Shining, The Thing, Psycho and Session 9 (a small but very well done movie) The Exorcist remains at the top of any horror film list of mine! Like your list!

"Jennifer's Body" deserves a place and also "Smile" and "The Menu"

My top 5 1. The Wailing 2. I saw the Devil 3. Hereditary 4. Seven 5. Train to busan

Texas Chainsaw or Halloween isn’t Top 5? Insane.

Do top 100 action movies plz. I would be so happy cause I love action movies so much. Plz do a top 100 with action movies plz 🙏

I really thought Wrong Turn, Final Destination and Jeepers Creepers would be somewhere on the list. I love these horror flicks and they played a big part in ushering me into horror fandom as a millennial. Some recent horror films like X, Smile and The Nun are also awesome.
