| 10 | The Shining |
When Stanley met Stephen it created a world of indelible images that continue to affect the grammar of cinema to this day.
That's a really obnoxious sentence, I know, but watching The Shining hardly leaves someone to make mincing statement.
Available on Netflix Watch Instantly.
| 9 | The Sixth Sense |
There are few bigger punching bags out there right now than M. Night Shyamalan, but we shouldn't let his newer atrocities take away from his previous work.
The Sixth Sense may have had a larger impact as a "surprise!" movie, but it is about ghosts. . .and it is spooky.
Available on Netflix Watch Instantly.
| 8 | Funny Games |
If an evil scientist surgeon had electrodes shoved directly into the parts of your brain that transmitted FEAR and TERROR, it'd be something like Michael Haneke's relentless home invasion masterpiece.
Available on Netflix Instant Watch.
