Halloween
Amytiville

I saw millions of horror films in the 80s and none of them really stick. But The Thing is definetely one of my faves of all time.

I haven't seen Ringu. The directing in The Ring is spot-on. Puuuuuuuurrrrfect.

I don't watch horror movies much, but 'the descent' which came out last year here is one of the best i've seen.

I read that the US ending is different from the original UK ending, which is the one we got as well. The ending is one of the best parts, so if you check it out, try to get the original one.

Fear dot Com and then watch the Ring right after that. Fear dot Com isn't that great, but it works well with the Ring.
