TOP HORROR MOVIES of 2000--2009 Part Two

In all fairness there are quite a few excellent contenders that I have yet to see, so this list will be undergoing some up dating as I see them.
1
Canadian producer/writer/director Maurice Devereaux turns in an extremely effective flick about a young psychiatric nurse who watches the world crumble around her one night in the subway. Is everone going insane or is it really the end of the world?

What can be said about this film that hasn't already been said?
3
I was very impressed with the first effort from these film makers (the Aussie zombie flick UNDEAD that turned out to be a lot more than it seemed), but I never expected this slick, nifty, flick from Sophomores! Vampires have taken over the world and are punching their time cards just like they did when they were still breathing--but a serious food shortage has all of the living and the undead facing extinction.
4
Simon Peg's comedy of zombies running amuck in England. "We're coming to get you, Barbara."
5
Whoever knew that there was so much outrageous fun to be had during the zombie holocaust...as long as you kept up with your cardio.

6
Vampires run amok in Sweden.
7
A ghost story from Guillermo del Toro set in an orphanage during the Spanish Civil War.
8
Creepy.
9
Grave robbers like you've never seen them before, I can almost guarantee it.

10
From Director Stuart Gordon and writer Dennis Paoli comes this nifty take on Poe's story. I can bet you've never seen it presented quite this way before. Jeffry Combs makes a very convincing Edgar Allen Poe too.
11
A young man confronts a demon on its home turf in an attempt to rescue his girl friend from Hell.
12
Brutal British splatter comedy about a kidnapping gone horribly wrong.
See the full review, "A Nice Place to Live But I Wouldn't Want to Visit There".

13
Violent, funny movie about toxic something or other turning people into fleshing eating fiends, but even if it wasn't good it would still be worth price of admission just to see Quentin Tarantino die a horrible death.
14
A great twist on the 80s' staple of a fraternity initiation within a supposedly haunted house.
See the full review, ""I don't like computers and I hate video games."".

15
Great little horror comedy about a young film maker doing a documentary about the day to day life of a serial killer and how he goes about his craft.
16
Stephen King adaptation with a touch of H.P. Lovecraft. A group of people hide out in a grocery store as onsters from another dimension rip their way into out world. Neat ending too.
17
A college girl accept a ride home with someone she doesn't know--never a good idea. Not usually my kind of film, but surprisingly well done and not cut from the same cloth as other's of its ilk.
19
Lots of great atmosphere in this French werewolf flick.
21
A young horror writer gets dragged into her fictional world.
22
Korean vampire flick about a Catholic priest who becomes infected with a vampire virus after engaging in experiments on another virus. Things go from bad to worse when he falls for the wife of an old friend.
23
Nice ghost story with a slight twist.
24
Grace Lee's mockumentary about the lives of the L.A's undead and how they cope with the day to day problems of zombieism. Not to be confused with ZOMBIES ANONYMOUS.
25
The most divisive of all Romero's DEAD films.

I didn't like Diary at all. Romero clearly lost his touch and he had been dumbing himself down for the new dumbass audience. That flick was very annoying for me.

It just got in there by the skin of its teeth. As I see other flix that came out during that time period it may well drop off. I haven't caught up with a lot of the Asian films yet, so I can almost guarantee it's going to come off.

interesting list. Yep, Pan's Labyrith does have some horror elements. Need to see # 15 and 4

Far more of a horror film than the fantasy film people were lead to believe it was.

Another great list. I saw The Others but could not get into it. I may rewatch it (on videotape). I always wanted to see Shaun of the Dead, loved the previews. How about Serial Mom?

Didn't see it, but even though I put a lot of comedies on my horror lists, I don't think it would have a high enough horror quotient to qualify.

True. It was mild horror; a lot of knifing and such. Mom gets angry that her daughter's boyfriend got dumped so she meets him and lets him have it. She does other stuff, too. A dark comedy to say the least.

It's hard to draw the line sometimes. I let EATING RAOUL in and that's about a married couple where the wife poses as a dominatrix so that they can kill the perverts who answer the ads they place in kinky magazines, then they hand the bodies over to Raoul who sells them for dog food. (The money they make is going towards their big dream--a fine dining restaurant.)

I am the poster child for inertia. Where ever I am is where I plan to stay FOREVER. So much so in fact that it took me decades to understand the punchline about why the chicken … more
