Overall, quite a good list by Simon Troare, but I'll have to swap another Uni title, which....though not particular "scary"...it just seems to fit better in the group. In lieu of #10, 1953s It Came from Outer Space, I'd select Dracula's Daughter, the (seemingly underated) 1936 work staring Gloria Holden and other notables. It was a class act film, and in tune moreso with many in the genre. Note this is a subjective opinion...no right or wrong. I really enjoyed that '36 film though, the space film was just ok to me.

Nice list, but as I've metioned before, I still much enjoy these films, they all have lost their ability to scare me anymore.

Also, I agree with Torch. I'd rather see "Dracula's Daughter" on the list, rather than "It Came From Outer Space."
