I guess because for movies that have no point and where shit blows up there's much worse choices, I'll take John Cusack and numerous cool looking natural disasters over Shia Lebeouf and racist transformers punching each other while Megan fox runs in slow motion for 3 hours.
Cool looking natural disasters? Give it a second watch.
 
Oh yes, great list. What about the original Dracula film from 1931? That's a great one. :)
Yeah, I've been meaning to go and rewatch a lot of the classic horror flicks like Creature from the Black Lagoon, Phantom of the Opera, and so on, especially since Clash of the Monsters was announced.

One of my favorite classic "horror" movies is Black Cat. Boris Karloff AND Bela Lugosi together on screen. I love the scene with the chess game.

I love those old Universal horror films. Definitely give Dracula a re-watch. If you can get a hold of the Spanish version of it (1931) watch that too, arguably even better than the English one.

Care to elaborate? Actually, it sounds kind of amusing.... Imagining Dracula appearing and instead of the classic, "Good Evening," we hear, "Buenos Noches."

When they we're filming the original 1931 Universal Studios Dracula they filmed a spanish version at the same time, same set, different actors and some shots were filmed differently. The spanish guy who plays Dracula is fantastic. I did some Googling and found this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dracula_(Spanish-language_version)

You have piqued my interest, Sir, I will have to get around to checking this out sometime.

btw, if you like classic horror, there is a 2005 movie version of HP Lovecraft's "Call of Cthulhu" done in the style of old B&W silent movies. It is only about 45 minutes, but it is actually a pretty accurate version of the original short story. Worth catching.

I only work in black,sometimes in very dark grey.
The order is essentially meaningless.

1. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
2. Brazil
3. Videodrome
4. Reds
5. The Prestige
6. Tess
7. The Fountain
8. The Virgin Spring
9. Phantasm
10. Primer

You have an interesting taste, I'm surprised someone put on his top 10 movie list things like "A Funny Thing...", "Primer" or "Brazil". Impressive.

Here's mine, order is also meaningless.

Versus - Ryuhei Kitamura
Unbreakable - M.Night Shyamalan
Once Upon a Time in the West - Sergio Leone
The Propostition - John Hillcoat
25th Hour - Spike Lee
Adaptation - Spike Jonze
Reservoir Dogs - Quentin Tarantino
Hero - Zhang Yimou
Cinema Paradiso - Giuseppe Tornatore
Seven Samurai - Akira Kurosawa
