There is NO WAY Get Out is better than The Exorcist.

[slaytanicsabbath]

Yeah nightmare on elm Street is one of the few horror movies set at

[godfatherNYC]

"Get Out" was original, inventive, and good, but FAR from being in the very top Horror films of all-time.

[ivabeegan]

The Exorcist was number 1 for me. No movie has ever scared me so much. But I was young when it came out

My Top 10 Horror Films of all time..

1. The Shining
2. Alien
3. The Wicker Man
4. Psycho
5. The Silence of the Lambs
6. Cure
7. The Vanishing
8. The Exorcist
9. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
10. Rosemary’s Baby

Also want to mention that Hereditary has officially become my favourite horror film of the 21st Century..

[JKalama]

The Exorcist as a film in general is a cinematic masterpiece. The cinematography, score, lighting, acting, character development, special effects; nothing's ever come remotely close to it. It criminal that it only ever gets mentioned for being "The scariest movie of all time" and nothing else.

[suaamigamisteriosa]

"The Others" and "The Sixth Sense" should both be on the list, for their unique twists on classic horror-story-telling

[Alex_the_Dude-]

'Event Horizon'... I've watched it once and never again

[TheDoctorVideos]

What about sinister!? The sound track alone makes me cry...

[energy]

Hellraiser, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Child's Play and Friday the 13th should've been on this list.
