Top Ten Horror/Halloween Films: #7 The House On Haunted Hill

This film proves that some classics should be left alone. This version of the film stars Vincent Price and is just about as creepy as they come. A millionaire has a party with a twist as he invites a group of people over, tempting them with a reward if they can stay the entire night and survive. While there things start happening and the characters are questioning their decisions and desperately are seeking a way out.

This one is definitely worth a view over its remake. Vincent Price proves why he was a legend and why his movies have lasted to this day.

Top Ten Horror/Halloween Films: #8 Donny Darko

There is really no way to explain this film that won’t confuse you more than the movie will. This cult classic belongs in a class of its own. With Halloween approaching, Donny narrowly escapes death when part of a plane crashes into his house. He suffers from depression and what appears to be schizophrenia. The plot gets weirder and weirder as Donny starts talking to a rabbit named Frank and theorizes about the end of the world.

This one isn’t scary but it will take your brain to places it has never been before. The Director’s Cut helps a lot because this brainteaser will surely confuse you.
