## Key points

- The writer ranks eight horror films by their lasting impact.
- The excerpt focuses on four films and their different sources of dread.
- The list is explicitly a personal judgement, not an objective measure.

## Summary

The article ranks eight horror films that the writer considers exceptional, arguing that their lasting impact comes from more than fear: strong performances, unsettling ideas, moral tension and small human reactions help the films stay with viewers. It presents the ranking as a personal judgement, since what frightens one person may not affect another.

The excerpt describes *Get Out*, *The Texas Chain Saw Massacre*, *Psycho* and *The Exorcist*, highlighting how each builds dread through social pressure, oppressive atmosphere, unnerving characters or unexplained events. It gives no release dates or ranking positions for the films shown, and the supplied text cuts off during its account of *The Exorcist*.
