FAQ
Do sequels and remakes count separately?
Yes. Each film is its own answer — Halloween, Halloween II, and the 2018 Halloween all score independently, so franchise knowledge pays.
Is Jaws a horror movie?
On this list, yes. Jaws, Alien, Psycho, and The Silence of the Lambs sit comfortably in the horror canon even when marketing called them thrillers.
Are horror comedies accepted?
The ones that keep the horror first: Shaun of the Dead, Gremlins, Zombieland, and Army of Darkness all count. Pure parodies don't.
