The Innkeepers 2011
Surprisingly creepy. While there were some cheap 'jump scare' moments, I thought what was accomplished worked great. Loved the dialogue between the two leads. First horror film in a while where I actually cared what happened to the characters.

Alien 1979
For me, Alien is THE film, and I believe it can't be surpassed.
Alien is a perfectly paced, excellently acted, amazingly designed roller coaster ride of terror. While the premise of the film is compared to that of a b-movie, that's all the director needed; a small kernel of an idea, and transformed it into a beautifully shot and designed work of art.

Straw Dogs 2011
Pointless and tactless remake. Had to go the unbelievably cliche'd route of making the church-going south look disgusting and dimwitted. I've never liked Marsden either, even as Cyclops in X-men, he's a tool.
Lost all the intensity, alienation and isolation Peckinpah's had.
