HYB’s Top Ten Horror Movies of 2009

There were a lot of great films in 2009 but unfortunately most of them did not come from the horror genre. I feel like most of my year was wasted watching bad 3D gimmicks (The Final Destination), boring and uncreative remakes (Friday the 13th) and comedies disguised as horror films (Jennifer’s Body)… Even the films that made our list barely elicit any kind of excitement from me; while entertaining Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell felt lost in the Summer movie season, and Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat didn’t seem like is was worth the very long wait. Paranormal Activity just gave me Blair Witch Déjà vu and unfortunately I managed to miss Zombieland in theaters.

Top Ten Pranks Gone Wrong in Horror Movies Part II

light of the upcoming slasher Sorority Row being released in theaters this Friday (September 11th), here are the top ten pranks that have gone wrong in horror movies. If you haven’t seen the trailer yet for Sorority Row (which you can see here in standard or in hi-def), then you’re missing out on why this top ten is relevant. In the trailer, six girls of Theta Pi play a prank on one of the girl’s cheating boyfriend. The prank goes horribly, horribly wrong beyond it’s already morbid show resulting in the death of one of the girls of Theta Pi. Walla! You now have relevance.

This is part I of the top ten and where I only give you the last five, one (1) through five (5), first and if you missed part I, you can always go back and check out which films brought the caboose in this list. Click here to read part I!

Ten Horror Movies Featuring Porn Stars

This was supposed to be a Top Ten list, but we were struggling to come up with ten decent movies so we decided to scrap the “Top” part. The collective minds of Horror Yearbook and She So Crazy came together to bring you, ten horror movies that feature at least one porn star… That are worth checking out!

Who was chosen and why?

Actors who appeared and participated in any hardcore adult film. No softcore and no porn cameos (They must have been involved with some kind of penetration).

Basically the name says it all read on…

Uncensored SheSoCrazy.com version coming soon!

HYB’s Top 25 Nude Horror Movie Scenes

Since Mr. Skin released his Top 100 Nude Scenes the Horror Yearbook staff (Chris, Kevin Touch and myself) decided to make our own Top 25 Nude Horror Movie Scenes list.

Below is the censored version that is safe for work, and kiddies under the age of 18. People not at work and over the age of 18 can click here for the uncensored version.

Top 100 Movies of 2009

Below is a list of the Top 100 movies by total domestic gross for 2009. Not one horror film cracked the top ten or even the top 20 (unless you want to count Beyonce’s Obsessed), but keep in mind, films like Land of the Lost (#32) cost $100 million to make. The highest grossing horror film, Friday the 13th cost around $19 million to make, that is a HUGE difference. Just because none of this year’s horror films are in the top 25 doesn’t mean they performed badly. It just means films like Star Trek ($150 million production budget) have to rake in a lot more cash to succeed. Also the end of the year is the time for horror movies to shine. So I have a feeling a few more will be joining this list by December.

I underlined all the horror flicks so they would be easier to spot, and highlighted a few surprises in green.

The 10 Best Slasher Movie In-jokes

Sometimes a different horror website does something so good you just have to link to it. The website Retro Slashers published The 10 Best Slasher Movie In-jokes, an awesome list of inside jokes, homages and gags you may have missed in your favorite slasher films.

Top 10 Horror Remakes

With rabid anticipation of the My Bloody Valentine remake (in 3D no less!), I thought I’d celebrate the history of Hollywood reconstruction. Love them or hate them, remakes are all the rage these days. Some of the choices make sense (The Fly, although you won’t find this movie on my list. Sorry Mr. Cronenberg!) while others just leave us scratching out heads (Psycho, anyone?) but there are actually quite a few worthy re-imaginings out there. They might not blow the original out of the water, but they make for a nice counterpart. Here is the short list of titles in a remake world gone wild.

Hottest Male and Female Movie Vampires

This is old news that I tripped over today, but I missed it way back in November, not to mention it is a very slow news day (unless you want to look at the lame Unborn “viral” video everybody is posting) so what the hell…

Ten Unbelievably Overrated Horror Movies

This is not our list, it belongs to VideoHound’s Golden Movie Retriever which has been outdated for quite some years now. Not to mention useless because of the Internet and websites like IMDB.com.

Top Ten Horror Movies of 2008

So once again I offer you Horror Yearbook’s Top Ten Horror Movies of 2008. The list was voted by all of our writers and message board members, with me overseeing the final ten. Top ten list are always debatable, and none are ever right or really wrong. These are just the films that managed to impress our staff and community this year. I hope you enjoy it and here is to a great 2009 in horror!

Overlooked and Unappreciated: A List of Little Known Horror Film Treasures

What makes a great horror film anyway? Of course the answer is subjective and it truly relies on your ability to open yourself up to your own fears. The rest depends on the madmen behind and in front of the camera. Dario Argento says his greatest inspirations come from his dreams and almost any great horror film I can think of does lie in a surrealistic domain where one can feel the impossibility of the situation. But all dreams come from some germ of reality so in the end, the movie also has to anchor the viewer in a place, however strange, where we relate to at least a nugget of truth either in the situation or within ourselves.

The Top 15 TRANSEXUAL KILLER MOVIES

Set at a small mid-western college during an all night scavenger hunt, Girls Nite Out follows a bunch of sexually voracious cheerleaders who are viciously slaughtered by an intensely bloodthirsty killer, who is disguised as the dancing bear mascot that’s supposed to be cheering the scavengers on. I‘ll repeat just incase the retardedness of it didn’t sink in. The killer is disguised as a giant bear, complete with long, sharp, metal claws.
