    I don’t feel like Silence of the Lambs is horror at all. It’s suspense/thriller or something.

    Wait, Aliens? Wat

      Silence of the Lambs I could maybe see at a stretch, but Aliens is unquestionably an action movie and probably my favourite of all time.

    Here’s my top 5 (with slight cheating):

    1. The Thing
    2. Alien/Aliens - don’t make me choose
    3. Braindead
    4. Shaun of the Dead
    5. Evil Dead 2

    Honestly, not a great top list. These first 5 positions, for example, feel too 90s centric to me. I’ve checked the first 50 movies in the top and, come on, The Invisible man (2020) in 14th position and A quiet place (2018) in 10th place? Way above classics like The Exorcist, Rosemary’s Baby or Night of the Living Dead?

    Overall, though, an interesting list to explore the genre these days. I will be watching some good horror movies I’ve missed recently. Thanks for sharing.

    Martyrs 2004 is my favorite, and enter the void if I can count is as horror, it’s creepy as hell.
