"I always do an all-night horror marathon on Saturdays where we start at seven and go until five in the morning." --- Quentin Tarantino ::::::::::: MY CRITERIA FOR DISCUSSION ENCOMPASSES THE HORROR GENRE AND BEYOND, SO I USE THE TERM "NIGHTMARE MOVIES".

52 ESSENTIAL NIGHTMARES FOR HALLOWEEN!

To celebrate All Hallow’s Eve I decided to push the horror newbies into my pop-up site; Horror Horror … where I’ve been making a list of essential nightmares, mostly modern horror classics and cult favourites. The criteria for this selection was to highlight what I feel have been the real shakers and movers in the genre of horror. Those movies we True Believers come back to time and time again, and especially for those fledgling horror delvers, the ones curious about what lies in the abyss, the ones keen to get blood on their hands; these are the cinema nightmares that have defined the genre, pushed the boundaries, championed the visceral shocks and the atmosphere of fear.

But from the beginning, a few months back, when I first took over the horrorhorror.com url, I knew I wasn’t going to continue posting for too long. I made the decision to stop the selection at 52, one for each week of a year, reminiscent of the Sunday Horrors I grew up watching on television.

And so as we embrace Halloween I’ve almost hit my cult classic nightmare quota. I posted a triple-whammy today; [REC], Frontier(s), and Let the Right One In, three European gems from a bumper year of imaginative and intense horror, 2007. That leaves me with four more entries to do, all from the last couple of years.
