A list of the Top 1000 horror films and/or disturbing movies of all time. After looking at a lot of lists like They Shoot Zombies Don't They and Horror, I thought about how there are films that are on the list that are amazing, yet there are so many that are terrible. So in an attempt to focus only on films that are still amazing or disturbing (but well made) and are worth seeing. Some of these films will be familiar to people and some have gone underappreciated or overlooked.

Yet all will be worth your time. But be warned some are hard to watch or stomach.

NOTE: I will be trying to update this list as I see new movies and it is a work in progress as I am going to complete They Shoot Zombies Don't They before I get to 1000 films.
