If I had any more time on my hands I'd have a full length feature film out by now.

So I came across this spiffy horror movie quiz compatibility test made by Dr. Blood over at Dr. Blood's Video Vault, and I decided that this would be fun to complete on a particularly lonely wednesday night.

The rules are simple, put these already alphabetically sorted classic horror films into a list that is greatest to least in terms of (in your opinion) the quality of said films. This is the original list:


Alien (1979)
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
Dawn of the Dead (1978)
The Exorcist (1973)
Friday the 13th (1980)
Halloween (1978)
The Haunting (1963)
Hellraiser (1987)
The Hills Have Eyes (1977)
The Lost Boys (1987)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
The Omen (1976)
Psycho (1960)
Rosemary's Baby (1968)
The Shining (1980)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
The Thing (1982)
The Wicker Man (1973)

Easy right?

Not so much.

Regardless, here it is:

Psycho (1960)
The Shining (1980)
Dawn of the Dead (1978)
Night of the Living Dead (1968)
The Exorcist (1973)
The Haunting (1963)
The Omen (1976)
A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)
Halloween (1978)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
Rosemary's Baby (1968)
The Thing (1982)
Friday the 13th (1980)
The Wicker Man (1973)
The Hills Have Eyes (1977)
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
The Lost Boys (1987)
Hellraiser (1987)
Alien (1979)

I don't think any other quiz of any sort has ever taken me that long to complete.
What do you think? Agree? Disagree? Make your own and link it back to me.
Also, go on over to Dr. Blood's Video Vault and show Dr. B himself some love for making this wonderful quiz.

7 followers and no blog posts can't be a bad start.

First I'd like to say, that blogging has never been a success in the past; but I guess I'll give it a shot anyway.

So, here I am. A girl with quite a big problem.

I'm addicted to fear.


Since I was 6 or 7 years old I knew that horror was my calling, I loved Halloween more than Christmas, and preferred to dress up as Frankenstein as opposed to a beautiful fairy princess. I chose Freddy over care bears and cabbage patch kids, and video cameras over easy bake ovens.


What can I say? The way I think is that the more horrific, gory, and obscure things are; the better.

It's very nice to meet you.
