Black SundayBlack Sunday
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $8.79
Mario Bava's best and that's saying plenty. Lavish, yet it's in black & white. Great stuff.
Curse of the Demon / Night of the DemonCurse of the Demon / Night of the Demon
Buy new: $18.99 / Used from: $19.52
Excellent horror yarn. One of my all-time favourites.
The Curse of the Crying WomanThe Curse of the Crying Woman
Buy used from: $14.75
Classic, and I mean classic Mexican horror from the 60's. You'll never see movies like this again. Very well done by CasaNegra Entertainment.
The Witch's MirrorThe Witch's Mirror
Buy used from: $10.99
More Mexican horror from CasaNegra. This beauty oozes with atmosphere. Great stuff. All their releases are worth picking up.
Castle of Blood (Uncensored International Version)Castle of Blood (Uncensored International Version)
Buy new: $14.49 / Used from: $9.46
Barbara Steele shines in this atmospheric gem.(This is the best version)
Strait-JacketStrait-Jacket

Oh Joan. She looks so natural with that axe in her hands. (William Castle)
The ChangelingThe Changeling
Buy new: $5.98 / Used from: $2.84
The best "ghost" movie ever made; for me anyway. George C. Scott was suited for this type of role! Who knew?
Mr. SardonicusMr. Sardonicus
Buy used from: $21.75
Excellent, "spooky" tale. This has all the ingredients of the old classics. (William Castle)
Dead of Night/The Queen of SpadesDead of Night/The Queen of Spades
Buy used from: $55.99
Great two-fer. "Dead of Night" was especially impressive.
Dead of NightDead of Night
Buy used from: $86.19
Another "Dead of Night". This one's quite different. A nasty flick about excaped cons can be a little disturbing. I like it.
The Lucio Fulci Collection Volume 1 (The House By the Cemetery/The Beyond)The Lucio Fulci Collection Volume 1 (The House By the Cemetery/The Beyond)
Buy used from: $32.89
The Beyond is, hands down my favourite Fulci film. This one will stay with you. House by the Cemetery wasn't bad at all.
Suspiria (3 Disc Limited Edition)Suspiria (3 Disc Limited Edition)
Buy used from: $24.89
Dario Argento's classic. Actually, he has a few. While this flick's been analyzed to death, the bottom line remains; it's a super movie that's timeless.
Assault on Precinct 13 (Special Edition)Assault on Precinct 13 (Special Edition)
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $2.25
John Carpenter's best. This is a gritty, and suspensful movie that'll keep you on the edge of your seat.
The Texas Chainsaw MassacreThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Buy used from: $5.49
Could've made my "schlock" list but it belongs right here. A landmark movie for the business.
Dog SoldiersDog Soldiers
Buy used from: $3.59
One of the best werewolf movies made. Interesting twist to this one. Can be nasty too!
The TinglerThe Tingler
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $3.89
One of my favourite Vincent Price movies. Nothing deep here, just fun. (William Castle)
Creature from the Black Lagoon - The Legacy Collection (Creature from the Black Lagoon / Revenge of the Creature / The Creature Walks Among Us)Creature from the Black Lagoon - The Legacy Collection (Creature from the Black Lagoon / Revenge of the Creature / The Creature Walks Among Us)
Buy new: $20.99 / Used from: $15.99
"Creature" is a classic.
The SkullThe Skull
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $4.91
One of my favourite Cushing/Lee films. A curse that's passed on from generations wreaks havoc. Not so original concept done in original style.
From Beyond the GraveFrom Beyond the Grave
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $6.36
Great Peter Cushing film from the 70's. I love this one.
Devil DollDevil Doll
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $5.52
A ventriloquist can't get along with his doll. A great recipe for fun.
In the Mouth of MadnessIn the Mouth of Madness
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $4.39
I've always liked John Carpenter. This one was different from him but he hit a homer with it.
The Fog (Special Edition)The Fog (Special Edition)
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $2.15
An old favourite of mine. Good tale, good atmosphere, plus Adrianne Barbeau had me by the short-hairs throughout my childhood so that may something to do with it. (John Carpenter)
Black Sunday (aka The Mask of Satan)Black Sunday (aka The Mask of Satan)
Buy used from: $12.00
A trilogy of tales from Mario Bava. Lots of fun here.
The HauntingThe Haunting
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $6.49
Superior ghost tale. My second favourite after "Changeling" in this genre.
Night of the Living Dead (Millennium Edition)Night of the Living Dead (Millennium Edition)
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $5.48
Another landmark. Great work for a small budget. Get this version out the many available.
The Amicus Collection (Asylum / And Now The Screaming Starts / The Beast Must Die)The Amicus Collection (Asylum / And Now The Screaming Starts / The Beast Must Die)
Buy new: $24.49 / Used from: $20.29
"Amicus" gave "Hammer" a good run for their money in the "Horror" genre. This collection is one of the better examples of the type of stuff they produced. "Asylum" is an old favourite of mine.

Buy new: $22.49 / Used from: $15.50
Hammer made some of the most atmospheric horror films. Take your pick, I'll watch it.
Race With the DevilRace With the Devil
Buy used from: $15.99
Another old favourite that creeped me out as a kid. It's still good today. 2 Couples on the run from a cult that they don't really understand.
The Thing from Another WorldThe Thing from Another World
Buy new: $5.79 / Used from: $5.33
I still prefer the old version. Loads of atmosphere and one of the pioneers for films to come.
Dead Eyes of London/The GhostDead Eyes of London/The Ghost
Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $5.28
A couple of good atmospheric gems. I also like Barbara Steele's movies from this period.
MartinMartin
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $5.58
Little known George Romero flick is cool.
The CraziesThe Crazies
Buy new: $14.49 / Used from: $12.01
Romero loves making movies on contamination; this one is post "Night", pre "Dawn" and it's a great ride.
The Evil DeadThe Evil Dead
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $4.00
More teen-age-back-woods-in-a-cabin-zombie-brought-up-from-the-dead-fun. This was certainly one of the better 80's flicks in the horror genre.
The Devil's RainThe Devil's Rain
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $4.49
William Shatner, Ernest Borgnine, Eddy Albert, all in the same movie? This is 70's fun all the way. Even though it's a thriller, I couldn't help but smile throughout the whole thing. I love it.
