Here are my frightfest scores in descending order.
Nosferatu (1922) 10/10 - This was introduced by Kim Newman. Lived up to its status as a classic of the genre admirably.
I Spit On Your Grave 2 9/10 - This one was a surprise. I went into into expecting a unimaginative retread of Part 1 but came out liking it better than the first one due to the striking location and accomplished cinematography, great performance by the central female character and suitably gruesome and wince inducing revenge sequences.
Frankenstein's Army 8/10 - The very imaginative creature design and ace special effects really elevate this film above many other Nazi-zombie films. Don't know why they had to use the found footage format though.
V/H/S 2 - A MUCH improved sequel (though the wrap around story still kinda sucks) 8/10. The 'Safe Heaven' segment was the best and gets a 9/10.
Dark Touch 8/10
Contracted 8/10 - A good little indie film
We Are What We Are (The Jim Mickle 2013 Remake) 8/10 - I thought I would like this better. Requires a rewatch I think.
Big Bad Wolves 8/10 - Good effort from Israel. Liked it better than Rabies.
On Tender Hooks - Interesting doc on human 'suspension'. 7/10
The Dead 2: India 7/10
You're Next 7/10
Banshee Chapter 7/10
For Elisa 7/10
Curse of Chucky 6.5/10
Daylight 6/10
Corruption (1968) 6/10
I fell asleep during Missionary and Dark Tourist due to lack of sleep so these require rewatches. Of the two, from what I can tell Missionary was better.
