My Top 10 Lists

I'm basically a huge horror fanatic, and I basically can tell you that 80, no 85% of what I'll be writing on here has to do with the horror genre. I will however, give you my top 10 on both sides, and who knows one day I may make one for each genre, today though all you people get is horror and theatricals mixed with love.


****Also, I'm not putting these in order of my ACTUAL list, because frankly if I was going to put my top ten list down, I can 100% guarentee you probably are not agreeing with me, and no Poltergeist and The Exorcist are not on this list for a reason, I've NEVER I repeat NEVER been scared and or been mesmerized by those films, I liked them, but seeing Linda Blair crawl down the stairs, only made me want to become a gymnast.

Top 10 Horror

1. Cabin Fever

-Now, before you go ("This chick is fucking retarded, PANCAKES, what a cunt etc") I must educate you in my fascination with 70's and early 80's horror, and more so the throwbacks that it comes along with there- now you know.

2. I Spit On Your Grave

-I'm certainly not above watching a good rape scene, as long as its done tastefully with a bottle of the finest backwoods hick juice man has to offer.

3. Cannibal Holocaust

-Probably the only movie that has ever made semi-ill, I love turtles.

4. Audition

-Miike is ridiculously talented, and keep in mind that this ridiculously, fucking sick ending was done LONG before the "Two Girls One Cup" franchise. Anyone that can make someone eat their vomit is pretty amazing, or must also be a fan of the Opie and Anthony show (fantastic by the way)

5. Hostel & Hostel 2

-Yes, another Eli Roth section, but quite frankly, its just fucking great.

6. The Re-Animator

-Can you bring things back from the dead? Herbert West can, excuse me, Dr. Herbert West

7. The Hills Have Eyes (remake)

-Buffalo Bill as a family man, who just happens to get pillaged by a bunch of freaks? FANTASTIC.

8. The Evil Dead Franchise

-I'm very Michigan proud, and I'll encompass all of them into one vote, although at the bottom of my list, Evil Dead 2 on the grand scheme of things, is one of the best horror films ever made.

9. Carrie (the original)

- The reason for all of my body insecurities and my inspiration for, oh I don't know, being an advocate of a shaved pussy.

10. Pieces

-Think Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Torso.



Top 10 Regular Non Horror Movies (genre based to come)

1. American Beauty

-This is the first movie I ever bought the day I received my dvd player. So therefore it gets top billing, oh and Wes Bentley has that amazing appeal of Ted Bundyish eyes that makes you wonder if he'd fuck you, or whilst fucking you chokes you out, worth the risk?? Yup.

2. Fight Club

-I had to watch this movie literally 5 times in one day, because unfortunantly for the first 3 times all I heard was Charlie Brown's mom saying wha wha wha while Brad Pitt, Jared Leto, and Edward Norton glistened in testerone and for once and only once in my life, I could see the need for men to watch porno, as David Fincher and all his glory created the best two hour peepshow for my young teen eyes. Plus, Chuck Palahniuk is fucking fantastic as an author.

3. Saved

-The cast that should have gotten a lot more credit than they did. Mac Attack is BACK.

4. Superbad

-If I had a cock and balls, I would have been Seth in high school. Instead, I had tits and a vagina and talked just like him.

5. Forrest Gump

-Always and forever, it makes me mad knowing that Jenny didn't give Forrest AIDS, maybe it was too soon after Philadelphia.

6. Great Expectations (1998)

-My favorite Robert De Niro movie of all time, and I'm transfixed every single time I watch this movie.

7. American History X

-The most cliche movie probably on my list, but racism and everything else aside in the film, if you know anything about cinematography or how to tell a story, this movie is amazing.

8. Love Me If You Dare

-French? You mean FANTASTIC

9. Boogie Nights

-Who would have ever thought that the porn industry would have been so interesting?

10. American Pie

-I saw this movie with my grandma in theaters when I was twelve, and I'll always remember what she said, "Amber, don't ever be like this in high school." To which I replied silently in my head, "Don't worry, I'll wait till college."

  2. And "Re-Animator" is even better when paired with Stuart Gordon's follow-up "From Beyond"...both nice gooey movies that strengthen my theory that old-school latex effects are far better than CGI.
