Top 10 Horror Movies of 2010 according to me :)

10. The Last Exorcism


Think of it as new version of the 1973 The Exorcist classic, it doesn't come close to beating it but has some good attempts, although i didn't completely enjoy the movie i put it on the top 10 list as it did have some good ol' scary scenes.
check out my full review on the movie here: (http://pixieshorrorgalore.blogspot.com/2010/12/last-exorcism.html)

9. Piranha 3D

I have to be honest i didn't really have high expectations for the movie and actually put off watching it for a while, I mean come on its about fish massacring mostly half naked people at a spring break party *eyebrow raised*. But i don't know if it was watching it in 3D or not this movie didn't suck as much as i thought it would.

8. I spit on your grave

This was probably one of the most brutal movies i've watched and fella's i think this will definitely leave you cringing if not passed out on the floor. This movie is different in the fact that you will actually be cheering and rooting for the killer as she is trying to avenge the men that gang raped her.So guys i suggest you treat the ladies good cause they might just get some ideas from this movie :P

7. Mirrors 2

If you have watched the first Mirrors film then you will definitely enjoy the sequel. I held on tight to my pillow like a little baby throughout this movie and for about 2 weeks after watching it avoided looking in mirrors for long periods of time.

6. Let me in

This was probably one of the best 'disguised' vampire movies i have watched and i say disguised because you you don't even know that the little girl is a vampire, i mean technically the movie doesn't even flat out say that and thus you the viewer are left to your own conclusions. This movie had such a unique aspect to the over-used vampire concept.

5. Paranormal Activity 2

The scariest parts of this movie begin about 45minutes towards the end of the movie. It gave me chills and the scene in the kitchen when all of a sudden all the cupboards open almost made me fall out of my bed. I do feel though that Paranormal Activty 1 was better.

4. Daybreakers

Another movie that took a different and unique approach to the Vampire genre. I loved the movie but think the ending could have been much better and not as corny but Ethan Hawke is really sexy in this movie so I'm going to let this one slide *wink wink*.

3. Frozen

Lets just say this movie pretty much put off all my desires to go skiing someday. It's a great film that gives you chills throughout.

2. [REC]2

Aaah can't nobody do horror movies like the French, this a genre they have perfected and this can be seen in both Rec movies. It's such a good movie I had a hard time deciding on if it should be number 1, this is a definite MUST-SEE movie. Plus i have heard through the grapevines that there's plans for a Rec 3& possible 4, I can't wait!!!

And now the Top movie of 2010 according to me is *drum roll please*......

1. Insidious

This movie was freaking AWESOME, scary and had jumpy bits throughout the movie. I shamefully admit after watching this movie i slept with the light on...To read my full review of the movie please click on the link below:

Insidious (2011)

or


Initially when i saw this movies movie poster i wasn't really intrigued and actually put off watching this movie for quite sometime, i guess the movie poster wasn't really as captivating as i would have liked it to be but in any-case after much convincing from a close friend of mine i decided to watch to it. I have to tell you even  though the movie poster wasn't that impressive Insidious  is scary as SHIT!!! but i guess it being created from the writers and directors of Saw and the producers of Paranormal Activity  i shouldn't have expected anything less than close to absolute Horror perfection.

The movie is about a married couple Josh (played by the cute Patrick Wilson) and Renai (played by the beautiful Rose Byrne) who have children and find themselves in a house that they initially think is haunted but later after moving out they realize its actually their own 'coma stricken' son that is haunted. The fact that the boy can dream travel and gets stuck in a astral realm called 'The Further' for some time leaves his body open to other elements like demons, bad spirits and ghosts who desperately want to take over his body.

This movie delivers right from the very beginning with its creepy sounds, mind-boggling images and eerie feeling. This movie was just super awesome i mean i held onto my pillow for dear life throughout the whole movie and my muscles definitely got a work out as this movie had A LOT of jumpy super scary bits in it. If  there was ever a movie i would recommend for you to watch it would definitely be this one, i think the director James Wan definitely outdid himself with an awesome cast, script and atmosphere, although the ending is kind of one of the most universally used horror endings this was definitely the best damn  horror movie i have seen in a while.

If you have the guts i DARE you to watch it alone but for the faint hearted i would definitely suggest you watch it with someone cause it's that GOOD!

If you don't believe me check out the movie trailer below....
