Top 20 Movies


Originally this began as a list of ten great movies, but I ended up finding that completely implausible. I also realized that, because of my unhealthy fascination with the horror genre, I should make a second list, splitting the horror films from the rest. The order isn't quite as important as the list itself, especially considering the fact that if I had to remake it from memory, a few would probably be different anyway, but I did the best I could to list them in order. I'm quite positive that once you've scanned over the list, you'll have read obligatory titles you fully expected, old titles that you forgot, random titles that seem out of place, and even titles that make you wonder if I've seen any movies at all. Well, if you want a list of "The Greatest Movies of All Time" by a professional critic then there are plenty out there, and they're all exactly the same.
