The BEST Horror Movie of the past 10 Years (POLL)

If I missed your pick feel free to write on in the comment section below.

It would only let me pick 20 to make a pill so fee free to add your own. I hope this makes the radio show, I am an avid listener!

-Dan

you forgot the best movie of all, hatchet. Its at least a good candidate...

Great poll Dan, and if Vince misses it I'll make sure we talk about it on the show. Thanks for listening!

Out of that list I chose Saw. But there are several on there that I have not seen so that could change. Of the ones that i have seen Saw is the best. It is too bad that they made a few too many sequels of that and diluted it. But the original film will always be great in my eyes. This is a great poll. Thanks for posting.

Very cool poll and TOUGH!

High Tenon with Trick 'R Treat a close second!

Tough choices, IMO some great movies listed, I usually don't like picking just one.

How tough is this list???

I wanted to go with High Tenon because I truly loved that film. It really made me uneasy which is tough to do this day in age.

I am an avid Devil's Rejects fan also because I love the gritty, TCM, 1970's vibe.

But ultimately I love Halloween the holiday and TRICK 'R TREAT won over in the end. I can't not watch that movie in October and it not getting a theatrical release still haunts me today. I loved that film. That is my choice but man was that tough! Ouch!

all great movies but i am taking . it was so different then the typical zombie affair and really creeped me out. i loved the movie.

For me it's definitely SAW :)

alright, someone needs to confess, who picked paranormal activity?

The Devils Rejects. No question.

I went with Trick 'R Treat but must say this was alot harder then I expected as House and Devils were great along with Saw and I do agree Hatchey would have been another great choice to have.

Here is what happened Bidites! Scott saw I picked Trick 'R Treat and totally tried to steal my thunder by jumping on the bandwagon!!!! What a tool!

I vote The Devils Rejects by far.....

A) because I LOVE the film, its close to perfect.

and

B) Im factoring in the affect the film has had on horror, and out of all of those listed films, The Devils Rejects has the greatest mythos around it; the Firefly clan has reached icon status and the mark of the Rejects is felt everywhere....from conventions, to comics, to muc, to a 70's resurgence. Many of the other films are great but won't be remembered 25 years from now. I love TrickRTreat as well, but I think it will appreciate more over time.

Evan you will get no argument from me on that either! You actually made me partially wish I could go back and change my answer. It was def down to TRICK 'R TREAT and THE DEVIL'S REJECTS. I think I was more disappointed with TRICK 'R TREAT getting the theatrical shaft that I went with the underdog. Plus I can still watch that movie in amazement on how they tied and interweaved the stores so perfectly together. I wish it would have became a franchise every year ala SAW because they could have done sooooo much with it. But oh well, I still have it it watch every October and that is mply a film I will not miss!

PS I LOVE THIS THREAD!!!!!!!

Trick R Treat was amazing, and i DO think as years pass it will become more and more of a cult film. Its sad though that the film really only has become beloved by those of us who grew up in the 70's, 80's and early 90's. Same with the Rejects....these films can't hold a candle to the box office returns of films like SAW or other tailor made horror films that feature the latest WB starlet. The studios arent dumb, just money hungry. They know which films will pay them dividends and movies like Trick R Treat just dont do it. Rejects has RZ's name connected so thats worth something to an extent but it still wasnt a huge draw.

I think us older guys grew up with a different style of horror, even the gore fests were cerebral. Can you imagine TCM or Maniac if they had FIRST been made now?

anyway, killer thread......i must admit Im surprised REC is coming in second!

I went with Trick 'R Treat because that's what Justin picked!

Nah, I really liked the old school vibe that this movie gave me!

I watch it atleast once a month just to keep the HalloweeN fire'a burnin!

I picked Devil Rejects. It was a tough call too. I love Trick R Treat but Rejects I just feel is a better film.

Trick R' Treat

Of those listed... Trick R Treat....ealy.

Im not trying to be a hater but trick r treat the best movie of the last 10 years? Dont get me wrong it was a good movie but i really dont think it was the best. But then again i guess i could see it being the best out of the 20 up there, except the devils rejects.

Newbie here. Hands down for me is "Let the Right One In". Not just horror but overall for me. That movie is fricken brilliant on so many levels. Martyrs is definately up there for me. High Tenon, The Devil's Rejects and Saw

were great too. Trick R Treat was good but it would be at least halfway down that list for me.

That's a pretty decent list. Overall I'd say Trick r Treat is the best but I gave my vote to House of 1000 corpses because that's the film that truly captured the feel of 80's horror for me. I knew during the first Captain Spaulding scene that I loved the movie.

martyrs!! that movie was freekin brutal.

I feel that "THE STRANGERS" starring Liv Tyler in 07 was by far the scariest horror film I have seen of the past 10 years.

I would have put Jeepers Creepers, Laid to Rest, and The Collector somewhere in there.
