After all, the best horror movies cut deeper to the human condition than just about any other film experience. And if our list of the greatest horror movies ever made proves anything, it’s that horror has always been deserving of better recognition than it’s received. But with its reputation – not to mention box office power – higher than ever before, we wanted to re-evaluate this oft-misunderstood genre. Respect has been hard to come by for horror, which until recently was regarded largely as the realm of hacks and hucksters looking to ride a torrent of blood and guts to make a cheap buck. No wonder, then, that the horror genre has proven to be one of Hollywood’s most successful niches, with the likes of A Quiet Place, Get Out and this year’s M3GAN not just drawing big bucks and rave reviews but becoming certified cultural phenomenons. Not everyone has the stomach for a giallo gorefest – shoot, some of us tap out on anything more terrifying than Goosebumps – but it’s hard to find someone who doesn’t enjoy catching at least a small fright every now and then. Do you like scary movies? Of course you do.
