The Others
“Alejandro Amenabar’s movie with Nicole Kidman is exquisitely photographed, crafted and oldschool. It’s truly one of the finest ‘bump in the night’ Victorian ghost stories ever committed to film.”
-
Poltergeist
“It’s the movie that scarred me as a child and sent me down my obsessive path toward all things evil-doll/puppet-related. It has terrific sound design, too.”
-
Lost Highway
“This is the scariest nonhorror film: fragmented narrative, noirish atmosphere, insidious soundscape, moody photography. It all adds up to a classic David Lynch experience.”
-
Jaws
“It’s the movie that made me terrified of the great, watery unknown. It educated me on the power of suspense filmmaking (along with every other movie by Steven Spielberg) through camerawork, editing, music and mise en scene.”
-
Ringu
“This movie [the Japanese original that inspired Hollywood’s The Ring films] reintroduced me to my love for the Asian horror stories that I grew up with.”
