20. Annabelle. Re-watched it in English, thought that is looked better on a big screen, it was more boring the second time. But still, a good movie. And I am sooo looking forward to the second part of The Conjuring now!

This is the main reason I like these movies. They get rid of dumb and obnoxious actors in a way which makes them finally entertaining.22. Rogue (2007) Australia
A river tour in the outback gets stranded on a tiny mud island with a giant croc stalking the stranded tourists. Of course, many of the tourists are dumb and obnoxious and deserve to be eaten.The movie is a bit familiar but still very good with the added bonus of some beautiful outback scenery. 6/10
I love it too. Just one of my all time favorites ever. And yes, the book is good too.
I have seen all versions of this and I absolutely love this version. I personally think it's the best and really captures the story the best.
27) Masters of Horror-2 more eps. The first was Homecoming, directed by Joe Dante. Pretty dumb, over the top political. Jon Tenney and Robert Picardo turn in good performances, though. The second was Deer Woman. Written and directed by John Landis, it was creepy, gross (in parts) and pretty hilarious. I'd definitely watch it again! I forgot how much I like Brian Benben as an actor--perfect understated performance.
I saw Deer Woman and liked it too.
19. The Stuff (1985) -
A delicious mysterious goo that oozes from the Earth is marketed as the newest dessert sensation. But the tasty treat rots more than teeth when zombie-like snackers who only want to consume more of the strange substance at any cost begin infesting the world.
This one made me laugh a few times.
20. Shivers (1975) -
The residents of a suburban high-rise apartment building are being infected by a strain of parasites that turn them into mindless, sex-crazed fiends out to infect others by the slightest sexual contact.
This one took me out of my comfort level. Not sure I would ever want to watch it again.

I think that's the baseline reaction to most Cronenberg movies--lol. He's not happy until the audience is squirming.
21. Road Virus Heads North. That's one of my favorite short stories by Sai King, it's strange I have not seen the movie before. It's pretty good. Funny thing was noticing
SK books on the floor in the Richard's house in the end of the episode.
I didn't even know there was a movie of that! Where did you see it?
It was part of the Nightmares & Dreamscapes series on TNT a few years ago and is available on DVD.
23. Rammbock (2010) Germany
A good claustrophobic movie. The main characters along with a few others are barricaded in an apartment building as they try to figure a way to get through the undead waiting outside the building and make their way to a boat. 7/10

21. 100 Bloody Acres (FTV)
Three Australian youths on the way to a rural concert festival run into organic fertilizer sellers who need more of their secret ingredient: human bodies. This was an enjoyable horror-comedy with a very Australian sense of humor, and some hilariously over-the-top gore. One of the would-be victims has dropped acid in anticipation of the concert, so he has a hard time taking their predicament all that seriously, leading to many funny situations. A few of the gags are hit-or-miss, but overall you will have a good time watching 100 Bloody Acres.
3.5 out of 5 stars.

I've seen the Vincent Price version as well. I liked it. I liked the Omega Man better, though.
I really liked Cigarette Burns. I think it's the best thing Carpenter has done since In The Mouth of Madness.
22. Horror Hotel (1960) A British film also known as The City of the Dead. A young coed goes to a New England town to research witchcraft but things go real bad real fast. It was a big disappointment at the box office but this movie rates pretty well with critics these days. I agree with them; it was good!
I was always kind of "meh" with this adaptation. I thought it was OK and Fred Gwynne was great as Judd. I just feel Mary Lambert was totally the wrong choice as director for this and that the rest of the roles were horribly mis-cast.
I liked Homecoming. I agree it was overtly political but very tongue in cheek as well. Appeals to my twisted sense of humor, I suppose.
Deer Woman was more amusing than scary for me. I did like it. I feel Landis is just trying a bit too hard these days. He had a great early run then just kind of fell flat.
What Ms. Mod said. I watched it on Youtube
21. Absentia (2011) -
A woman and her sister begin to link a mysterious tunnel to a series of disappearances, including that of her own husband.
I wasn't expecting much, but ended up liking this one quite a bit.
