    I didn't know what to think the 1st time as well but now? Top 3 Halloween movie, absolutely love it!

    Hope they don't f--- this up but happy some others are returning (Marion, Tommy Doyle etc). Glad they are keeping the Haddonfield stuff. It has potential to be a perfect franshise ignoring all the others -despite having a few good ones-

    Yeah tbh Conjuring 2 was a little better imo as well. Scary as f---. Both classics though.

    Still need to see Evil Read remake and the Witch. Insidious also top 20 lol. Solid list!

    Forgot about Neon Demon, another classic. Have to see Suspiria remake as well. And yes, man it was so d--- hard to narrow it down to 10 so edited my post to 15 lol. And I still forgot some movies / had to cut some that also belong on it. And it's just horror alone here... great decade for (horror) movies absolutely! Also, nice list!

    @BIGFOOT Haven't seen freddy's nightmares series ! Worth it?

    Also regarding the movies u and @Sign Language should be ashamed of forgetting about 7.

    Maybe unpopular but 3, 1 and 7 are the only Elmst movies worth watching to me.

    First is obviously good
    Second is kind of a let down
    3 is a nice return for Nancy
    4 is boring but ok
    5 and 6 are so s--- freddy is not scary but a clown
    7 is a classic, love how they pulled the real world versions of them off
    Remake sucks and totally ruined the character. The major problem of freddy talking is that nobody can replace Robert Eglund.
    FvsJ was cool.

    How'd u rank the Halloween movies?

    I've only watched about 4 or 5 episodes of the series, but from what I remember they were good. It's based on before he got burned and became a demon... Tried rewatching the other day but the quality was very bad so i gave up. If you do decide to take a peek and find any better quality, let me know.

    Yeah, after posting my comment i instantly remembered about the 7th one...

    d---, I really like Freddys Revenge, not as good as the 1st one but still very solid... Freddy was still scary unlike 4, 5 and 6.



    Halloween ranking hmm. Imma have to have a Halloween binge I reckon as it's been years since watching some of them. Will definitely update you by the weekend with a list.

    Is it w Robert ? Might check it out sometime but really not interested in s-----y quality either lol

    Yeah well 2 isn't bad. Its just a let down for me because both the one before and after are so much better.

    1 is obviously a classic and the whole dreammaster thing they introduced in 3 was a cool concept. Unfortunately they kept going on w that bs in 4 , 5 and 6 (making the other characters dreammasters as well lol). And if freddy was still scary and not a clown I would have tolerated it as well.

    Its the same w michael myers. 4 and 5 were boring as s--- but still ok. In 6 they did that whole thorn s--- that ruined his character (imo). Same w the zombie remake, they tried to create compassion by giving him a bad childhood. Pass.

    I'd rank them like this

    Halloween (1978)
    Halloween (2018)
    Halloween 2
    Halloween 4
    Halloween H20


    Halloween 5
    Halloween (2007)


    Halloween 6





    Halloween Ressurection
    Halloween 2 (2009)

    Yeah it's Robert. You might find better quality than what I did, i think i tried dailymotion and that was it. Just had a quick look on youtube and it seems from the quick scan is that only the 1st season is good and the other two seem a little silly... "freddy stabs the girl that stood him up at prom night" LOL

    Same thoughts exactly regarding the dream master thing, they played it out too much became very stagnant after number 3. Number 5 could have been great tbh.

    Same with Friday the 13th. The first few were good but after that quality greatly declined... I liked the remake though.


    Which one was Halloween Season of the witch? I think that's the title... Could be confusing it with one of the Exorcists tho.

    Never been that big of a fan of friday the 13th. They also did some bs stuff lol.

    I do like 'jason lives' part 6 it is I think?
    But the manhattan bs and jason x lmfao.

    Again freddy vs jason did, imo, both franchises some justice.

    Remake was cool I agree but for me it was hard to watch Sam Winchester go after Jason lmao (if u know what I mean haha)

    Halloween 3 is Season of the Witch. I excluded it from the ranking because its completely different and not part of the franchise. I do like it though!

    @The Shape if you are referring to New Nightmare then yes, I have seen it. Not bad.

    I just didn’t list it because I consider it a standalone from the series.

    Fair enough, its not really part of the franchise so as far as canon/continuity goes hard to judge.

    But quality wise and the fact that the story is fresh and original, imo its far above the s-----y sequels except 3. Absolutely love that movie.

    Yeah it really sucks lol. I mean its fun seeing jason kick some street cumbags a--- but u cant take jason out of crystal lake, except for how they did it in freddy vs jason.

    Same way I kinda hate halloween h20. Michael walking around the school in california instead of haddonfield is a big no for me even if I think the movie is ok
