Comments on: Top 5 Horror Movies of 2009 http://courtneymroch.com/blog/2009/12/18/top-5-horror-movies-of-2009/ Where Courtney Mroch muses about a little bit of this and a little bit of that based on the different facets of her life Fri, 04 Mar 2011 15:59:46 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: court http://courtneymroch.com/blog/2009/12/18/top-5-horror-movies-of-2009/comment-page-1/#comment-13 court Tue, 29 Dec 2009 21:01:43 +0000 http://courtneymroch.com/blog/?p=79#comment-13 Oh man, you ask hard questions! That's a TOUGH one. The Night of the Hunter was pretty good, though it's probably not considered Horror really is it? All I know is it freaked me out. And I was a HUGE Nightmare on Elm Street fan when it first came out. HUGE! (That's since waned.) But as far as ones that I watch over and over again even now and never seem to tire of: Dawn of the Dead (2004), Halloween (1978), The Wicker Man (1973), Shaun of the Dead (yes, I know it's more comedy maybe than horror, but I like it; it's the zombies!), and Ghost Ship (2002). One I just saw not too long ago for the first time but I found excellent was Dead of Night (1945). Two I can't watch alone because even though by today's standards the effects are now cheesy but the premise still freaks me out is The Fury and Exorcist. One I don't know the name of but saw when I was little and would love to see again now that I'm older was about a lady who was actually old, maybe even dead, and had to drink some stuff to keep her young. (Or take stuff. I don't remember.) I do remember if she didn't, she got all ucky and then set out to kill whoever stood in the way of revealing her secret. It had to be from the 30s or 40s. It's a black and white one. Don't know what it was, but it was pretty good. Okay, now your turn! Oh man, you ask hard questions! That’s a TOUGH one. The Night of the Hunter was pretty good, though it’s probably not considered Horror really is it? All I know is it freaked me out.
