Apparently, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre has been voted the best horror film of all time.
Whilst I wouldn't necessarily agree with that, I do rate TCM very highly. I hate picking favorites, and try to avoid naming them whenever I can. I'm on the fence for this one, I'm afraid.
What I do disagree with is the exclusion of Black Christmas from the list. In my eyes, Bob Clark got there first with this film. It predates Halloween, is scarier and far more disturbing than Carpenter's "classic". Halloween is a good film, but Black Christmas is a better film.
And WTF is The Shining doing in the list? Why people rate that so highly, I'll never know.
Maybe I'll try to do a top ten myself at some point. If I can force myself to pick 10…
