I'm totally stealing this idea from one of my twitter friends. He created a list of movies he considers the top 100 worst movies ever. It was fun reading his list, and just a bit aggravating because a LOT of those movies I really love.
So for posterity, and to help save face for some of my faves, here is my list of the 50 movies I consider some of the BEST Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Horror movies of all time. Although they are ordered 1-50, that's not the order of their importance. (Just the order I happened to remember them in.) You will also notice that many are in groupings. Sometimes it's hard for me to decide which in a series is my fave. If you do not see a year posted beside remakes, it's because I like both equally.
Hopefully you'll find some on here, you haven't heard of yet. If so, I hope you'll give them a chance.
