Top 25 Horror Movies
From silent vampires to animated murders, from sharks that won't die to a love story set amid a zombie takeover, more than a century's worth of big-screen scares
One of the great "reveals" in horror films comes when the phantom's mask is removed to show a grotesque visage with distended eyes, misshapen nostrils and cadaverous teeth. Director Rupert Julian's lavish subterranean nightmare (best seen on Milestone's two-disc set) is a tribute to the artistry and masochism of Lon Chaney, the "man of a thousand faces," who endured extraordinary pains to scare audiences and burrow into the sad hearts of characters like Quasimodo, Mr. Wu and the phantom. This film was remade many times, most recently as V for Vendetta.
