Top 10 Horror Movies of 2006


10. An American Haunting

9. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning

8. The Omen

7. Silent Hill

6. Saw III

5. Final Destination 3

4. The Hills Have Eyes

3. Hostel

2. Slither

1. The Descent




First of all: Fuck! These suck. Not all of the movies listed, no, but the order they are in, definitely. So here's the appropriate order (assuming I keep the movies on this list.)


10. Slither - this movie was absolutely horrible. It had some funny parts (notice I say "funny" and not "scary") but clearly does not deserve to be on this list at all.

9. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning - The best part of this movie was seeing it end.

8. The Descent - It had my vote until.. Well, it never really had my vote.

7. An American Haunting - If I recall correctly I didn't mind this movie at all, but the end left something to seriously be desired.

6. The Hills Have Eyes - I remember seeing it, but I don't remember much of it so it didn't have much of an impact.

5. The Omen - Pretty good movie, but doesn't rank above the next four. Absolutely not.

4. Final Destination - I loved all of the Final Destination movies and this one was probably my favorite, although it would be hard to choose.

3. Hostel - I hate this movie. Really, really, really hate it. So why did it make #3? Because as far as horror movies go, it was very good. I found it very distasteful and disturbing but it is well done, it is realistic and it is horrifying based on it's realism potential.

2. Saw III - Choosing between Silent Hill and Saw III for the number one spot was a challenge. The Saw movies are excellent. Every.Single.One. so far. This is one series I hope keeps going. For-ev-er.

1. Silent Hill - Cannot be topped. I've seen it probably at least 8 times, most likely more, and it never gets boring to me. I would love to see a second Silent Hill.
