Since Halloween is right around the corner, here’s a list of 25 of my favorite horror movies. I won’t say they’re my “Top” 25, since I find that lists like that always change. Also, some of these aren’t what I consider “The Best,” just ones that I like.
In Chronological Order:
Freaks (1932)
The Island of Lost Souls (1932)
King Kong (1933)
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
