Alien Romulus, all Terrifiers, & a Quiet Place were brain-dead shyte. Annihilation & IT2 was lame. the Descent was boring af. The Babadook was a joke. It Follows failed to be scary. Cloverfield wasn't scary, but it WAS stupid.

As soon as I saw Eight Legged Freaks on here, the list lost all credibility. Especially when it was rated higher than Terrifier 2.

Excluding Zombie movies is dumb.

Why does it sound like her voice but clearly Ai replaced? It doesn't have the same feel and it is honestly annoying.

too many spoilers, I'm skipping through I don't want to hear too much, but I'm also getting a ton of Hellspin ads on the way.

The host was excellent, when i got to like #7 i was thinking "how is that not on here"….. good list, missed a few though for sure…..Cloverfield was not that great at all imo. Big miss on not having the ritual

I am really happily surprised to see Cloverfield and Gwoemul in the places that they actually deserve to be.

quitet place… why can't the monsters hear humans: breath, heartbeat…ummm stomach making noises, creaking bone noises, that "glup" when you swallow? um…reg ass foot steps. those ear holes look like they can hear a mouse fart 5 miles away while inside a bank vault. LOL I did really like the movie.

Another typical mojo list.
Godzilla minus 1 should have been NUMBER ONE.
And not having Jeepers Creepers one or 2 , signs, exists, 30 days of night,or dark skies is disappointing for sure.

THIS VIDEO IS SO FASCINATING AND FANTASTIC THAT I AM NOT JUST GOING TO WRITE THIS PROBABLY LONG WINDED COMMENT BUT I ALSO HAD TO CREATE AN INDIVIDUALIZED LONG NAME TO PUT IT IN MY SAVE CATALOG
NOW GETTING BACK TO THE COMMENT, I AM ONLY 17:35 minutes into the video and I AM ALREADY COMING ACROSS MOVIES THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE. AND I THINK THAT THIS IS ONLY NUMBER. NINETEEN
YOU KNOW WHAT, I WILL TAKE A BREAK HERE AND GO BACK TO THE VIDEO AND WITH ANY LUCK I WILL EITHER PASS OUT AND FORGET ABOUT THIS AND JUST LEAVE THIS ALONE. OR MAYBE I WILL BE BACK LATER

King Kong and Pacific Rim are way too low on this list

The Decent should of been #1

Alien Romulus suffered from bad casting, there was no substance to any of them.

The original, “ it "
By stephen king was better😂😂
