Horror can be a difficult genre to define. For some, it means blood and guts. For others, it means psychological terror. For the Apple iTunes store, it apparently means films like Hard Candy (great movie, but not what I'd call "horror").
For the purposes of this show, we're defining "horror" as... well, basically whatever we want. We're including slasher films, thrillers, creepy films... Basically anything we'd want to watch on Halloween late at night with the lights out. You know... after those darn kids stop interrupting you every five minutes with the doorbell.
So check out Andrew, Erik, and Ren's top five favorite horror films!

Woot, Cube was one of my favorite movies that no one seen. Cube 2 sucks by the way.
Evil dead 1 sucked, but that is why people liked it, and Evil dead 2 they realized we suck so lets run with it, and that is when it got good.
Halloween (Rob Zombie Remake) was good, while the others we meh kind of classics, since they are so generic.
Which of the SoL series does he get the ninja sword (the prequel) because that one was god awful.
I can’t believe you got on Ren’s case on Alien when you actually liked Saw 2 more then 1.
Plot Twist-
5.Lucky Number Slevin
4.Oldboy
3.Memento
2.Saw
1.Fight Club
Favorite-Se7en
Honorable Mentions- Donnie Darko
28 weeks later was alot better then 28 days later, but as a Two part series (so far, fingers crossed). I think it tops the charts in horror movies.
Body of lies was pretty boring.
Planet Terror is 100% better, and Death Proof wins two awards most boring dialogue, and most freakin awesome REAL car chase scenes.
Stuff not on your list that I would recommend-
Rec (better then Quarantine so :p)
Midnite Meat Train (ending blows, but pretty interesting)
Candyman (very interesting, not really about a monster)
Rosemary’s Baby (my old school pick)

If I said Saw 2 was better than Saw 1, I misspoke. I’ve never thought that. I love the first Saw, and I find the second one, while more in line with a traditional horror movie, lacked the psychological aspect of the first one. I’ll have to go back and listen to the show again. Maybe I explained it poorly.
We’re going to see Midnight Meat Train on Halloween. Can’t wait!
