Top 10 films by genres..

[karamazov80]

Pretty cool seeing Rustler's Rhapsody on one of these lists. One of my off-the-beaten-path favorite westerns is "Support Your Local Sheriff"

I'll do a few top 5s of the top of my head (favorites, not "most important"), but like EF said, it would be a lot of work to compiles these long-*** lists. Many of these would be cross-listed with other "genres."

Sci-Fi (Star Wars is fantasy IMO):
1) Alien
2) Back to the Future
3) Terminator
4) Blade Runner
5) Star Trek 2: the Wrath of Khan

Comedy:
1) Ghostbusters
2) The Americanization of Emily
3) Office Space
4) Manhattan
5) The Thin Man

Crime/Investigative
1) Godfather
2) Miller's Crossing
3) Godfather 2
4) the Maltese Falcon
5) Chinatown

Western
1) Once Upon A Time in the West
2) The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence
3) The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
4) Unforgiven
5) 3:10 to Yuma (original Glenn Ford version)

Horror


10. The Burning

There are some other movies that I really love more than some on here, just not sure if they'd be truly classified as horror.

Just watched the Burning with my Wife last night... She got a kick out of all the famous actors that were in it..

I actually like it better as a goofy comedy then a slasher film.. I love that you can't tell the adult councilors from the teen campers.. I kept trying to guess who was who.. Either way it was the worst run camp ever LOL!!! But I loved it for it.. Just kept waiting for Bill Murray to show and chant "It just doesn't matter"

Some good FX and Cropsy's makeup is pretty cool...

Wish Alfred got killed though


As far as your list goes... It's your favs.. Don't worry about what if they would be "true 100%" horror.. I have Se7en on my list and many don't consider it a horror film... But I do
