1. Scream 2



Why it works: The kills are much more creative, it's incredibly fast-paced, and we learn a lot more about things we thought we knew from the original movie.



2. Friday the 13th Part 2



Why it works: This is the first time we see Jason Voorhees as an adult on screen. Enough said.

3. Evil Dead II



Why it works: It's essentially a remake of the first movie, but better.

4. Saw II



Why it works: Several new death traps are introduced, and Beverly Mitchell (a.k.a. Lucy Camden) dies a pretty painful death.



5. Aliens



Why it works: More special effects and we get to see Sigourney Weaver kick some alien ass all over again. Win-win.

6. I Still Know What You Did Last Summer



Why it works: It's the only movie we get to see Brandy kick some ass.

7. The Devil's Rejects



Why it works: It's as equally gruesome as it is terrifying. As if that wasn't enough, something like this could actually happen. Yikes.



8. 28 Weeks Later

9. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors



Why it works: "Welcome to primetime, bitch!" is a line that will go down in movie history.

13. Paranormal Activity 2



Why it works: Paranormal Activity 2 is full of unique scares and the pace of the movie is much quicker than the first.

Why it works: An entire set of kitchen furniture falls from the ceiling, and we learn more about the demon's history, and how and why it entered Katie and Kristi's lives.

15. Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers



Why it works: Michael Myers was just as pissed as us because he wasn't in Halloween III: Season of the Witch, so he made sure to double the body count this time around.

16. Halloween H20: 20 Years Later



Why it works: Halloween H20 pays homage to several of the original movie's moments. Also, the nurse in the beginning of the film is the same nurse from the original Halloween.
