Black Christmas [DVD] [1974]
8.  Black Christmas [DVD] [1974] DVD ~ Olivia Hussey

Friday The 13th Part VI Jason Lives [1986] [DVD]
13.  Friday The 13th Part VI Jason Lives [1986] [DVD] DVD ~ Jennifer Cooke
The list author says:
  "Buy this film for Jennifer Cooke!  That aside the story is decent and there are some gory moments, but Jason is lacking his usual slasher charm in this film."

Halloween II [DVD] [1981]
14.  Halloween II [DVD] [1981] DVD ~ Jamie Lee Curtis
The list author says:
  "The Direction of this film is far too different to the first and I feel it suffers, as it prevents the story running as smoothly.  The boiling bath scene is superb.  Still an ok film."

Halloween V: The Revenge of Michael Myers [DVD] [1989]
16.  Halloween V: The Revenge of Michael Myers [DVD] [1989] DVD ~ Donald Pleasence
The list author says:
  "The additional comedy elements (the two police officers) ruined this for me.  Aside from that this is a great Halloween film with too much cheese in places for me though."

Halloween VI: The Curse of Michael Myers [DVD] [1995]
17.  Halloween VI: The Curse of Michael Myers [DVD] [1995] DVD ~ Donald Pleasence
The list author says:
  "The Thorn theory destroyed the series for me.  The weakest Halloween film.  The gore in this film is intense and over the top in a bad way.  After this they went on to further murder the series."
£3.98   Used & New from: £3.14
3.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (29 customer reviews)

Friday The 13th Part V A New Beginning [1985] [DVD]
18.  Friday The 13th Part V A New Beginning [1985] [DVD] DVD ~ John Shepherd
The list author says:
  "It was so obvious who the copy cat killer would be in this rubbish sequel.  There is some good acting in this film, but it's too much a cheap comedy to be part of the Friday films.  Not recommended."
Used & New from: £3.00

My Bloody Valentine [DVD] [1981]
19.  My Bloody Valentine [DVD] [1981] DVD ~ Paul Kelman
The list author says:
  "This film did not strike a chord with me.  I didn't find it scary or enjoyable.  The costume is good until the mask comes off."
£15.69   Used & New from: £3.94

Leprechaun [DVD] [1993]
20.  Leprechaun [DVD] [1993] DVD ~ Warwick Davis
The list author says:
  "Warwick Davis is superb in this film and he outshines the rest of the actors.  You can't help feeling sorry for the Leprechaun who just wants his gold back.  A very good slasher film."
Used & New from: £2.20

The list author says:
  "What utter garbage.  The quality and acting is ok, but the ending just ruins it. I like twist endings, but the ending is just pathetic. Think of the title and you already know what it's going to be."
