K, guys, what's your favorite HORROR MOVIE?

I want to rent something tonight that will scare the living daylights out of me (or at least keep me awake and squinting at shadows...)

:D

i have a long list of favorites, but my top two that will ALWAYS remain my real loves are: Night of the Demons & Girls School Screamers. they're not very well known, but that's one of the reasons why i like them. =]

Got a real soft spot in my heart for---

1)
"Dead of Night," (1945)--esp. the segment with Michael Redgrave in it. (It's a series of five stories--which start out to be about premonition dreams that came true, and end with the Redgrave bit--about a ventriloquist who is ruled by his dummy (later taken by Anthony Hopkins' "Magic,"--I think the director of "Magic" gave credit to the DofN episode). There's an incredible frame around all of them. (Had a funny experience seeing this in a re-run theater in the 890s. Most of the action is in one room, and 5 of the 6 people are smoking--all but the young girl. After a while, the air gets so thick with smoke, you have a hard time seeing the actors' faces. the audience tittered.)
2) "Angel Heart" (80s-90s). Goes the Oedipus story one better. Mickey Rourke and Robert DeNiro.
3) "The Silence of the Lambs" Guess you've seen THAT one!
