Of these Horror series, which do you think is the best entry in each? It's been a while since there was last one of these little survey topics. Add more to the list if you'd like with your choices. Thought this would be a neat questionaire to share here, with a new Child's Play film on the way.

Friday The 13th

Halloween

A Nightmare On Elm Street

Saw

Scream

Evil Dead

Phantasm

Alien

Predator

Hellraiser

Child's Play

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

My choices:

Friday The 13th - The Final Chapter

Halloween - 1978 Original

A Nightmare On Elm Street - New Nightmare

Saw - Saw II

Evil Dead - Evil Dead II

Phantasm - Phantasm II

A lot of those are my favorites, too

The Final Destination sequels are worth a look if you liked the originals.

People actually like Texas Chainsaw 4?
Not disrespecting your opinion, but why do you like it? I honestly can't stand it, but I'd like to know your view.

Yippee Ki-Yay!

Another series I remembered was Re-Animator. Only seen the first one and liked it a lot.

I've been thinking about having best episode of a Horror series as well for a category.

On the subject of anthologies, I remembered Nightmares, Body Bags and the two Trilogy Of Terror movies. I haven't seen any in so long (I've never even seen the original TOT, just the original), but I recall my favorite segments in each respective one were the Bishop Of Battle, the gas station segment in Body Bags and of course the Zuni Doll segment in TOT2.

The Phantasms are great, seek them out if you can.

[–] NeonManiac0 12 years ago

I also forgot to mention Evil Dead is a great series, definitely give them a look, sometime.

[–] NeonManiac0 12 years ago

Giving this a small bump after Willow Otter's spam attack earlier that buried a bunch of threads.

[–] NeonManiac0 12 years ago

After seeing The Exorcist for the first time recently I'm intrigued to see the sequels and prequels, I have my doubts any of them are as good as the original, though.

I'm thinking best episode of a Horror TV series per season is a good idea, too. I'll list some of my choices:

Tales From The Crypt S1 - The Man Who Was Death
Tales From The Crypt S2 - Television Terror
Tales From The Crypt S3 - Undertaking Palor
Tales From The Crypt S4 - The New Arrival
Tales From The Crypt S5 - House Of Horror
Tales From The Crypt S6 - Doctor Of Horror
Tales From The Crypt S7 - The Third Pig

Tales From The Cryptkeeper S1 - While The Cat's Away
Tales From The Cryptkeeper S2 - The Haunted Mine

Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S1 - The Tale Of The Pinball Wizard
Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S2 - The Tale Of The Midnight Madness
Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S3 - The Tale Of The Quicksilver
Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S4 - The Tale Of The Fire Ghost
Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S5 - The Tale Of The Dead Man's Float
Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S6 - The Tale Of Vampire Town
Are You Afraid Of The Dark? S7 - The Tale Of The Reanimator

Masters Of Horror S1 - Cigarette Burns
Masters Of Horror S2 - Family

Goosebumps S1 - The Werewolf Of Fever Swamp
Goosebumps S2 - Monster Blood
Goosebumps S3 - Werewolf Skin
Goosebumps S4 - The Ghost Next Door

It's been too long since I last watched some other anthology shows like Tales From The Darkside, Fear Itself, Friday The 13th, etc. so I need to catch up on those. I remember my overall favorite TFTD episode though was Halloween Candy.
