John, it's great to see the Landis film, An American Werewolf in London (1981) make your top slot.
That film is not only scary, but also really funny. In fact, given that Return of the Living Dead and Scream also made your list (and are excellent selections...) I'd say you have a penchant for horror movies which lean funny. I like that equation too. When done right (like in Evil Dead II, as well...) there's no greater movie experience in the world.
LOVE that 'An American Werewolf in London' made JP's list, and at the top! I hated to leave this, my favorite werewolf film, off my mine.
