]]>A laughing dummy on a tricycle doesn’t sound all that creepy… oh wait, it does. And it is.
Dracula
There have been hundreds of vampires in movie history, but Dracula will always be the most infamous and the most iconic.
Chucky
Chucky from Child’s Play is not a doll you want in your toy box. Though, if it’s a choice between Chucky and The Conjuring‘s Annabelle, we choose Chucky every time.
Pennywise
Pennywise from IT is terrifying in both the original and the remake. He’s also responsible for a growing epidemic of coulrophobia (fear of clowns).
Michael Myers
A slasher franchise like Halloween doesn’t get to be one of the greatest horror movies of all time without one killer villain. That villain is Michael Myers.
Freddy Krueger
His horrific appearance and the fact he kills you in your sleep makes Freddy terrifying. His witty banter and brilliant one-liners is what makes him iconic.
Samara
Samara from The Ring is so creepy, we don’t even want to share a picture.
Kayako
AKA that seriously creepy kid with long hair from The Grudge.
Jason
Friday the 13th‘s Jason Voorhees is another masked slasher villain that you definitely don’t want to encounter.
Jack Torrance
Jack Torrance from The Shining might have the appearance of an ordinary man, but his unpredictable mood swings and the ax he swings about makes him one hell of a villain.

]]>Compared to other movie genres, the horror movies always had bigger chances to become a franchise or film series. The reason is simple; if you have a good villain/s or a way to scare people, you make most of it. Now, the history of cinema has given us some cult psychological and sci-fi to slasher horror movie franchises, but which one is the best? Well, we decided to give our take on that by making a list of five best horror movie film series. Like it? Hate it? Let us know in the comment section below.
We begin our list of best horror movie film series with one of the best horror franchises from the ’90s. The story of Scream revolves around a girl named Sydney Prescott and her friends, who get targeted by a crazy serial killer. The original Scream movie from 1996 is without a doubt the best one out there, but the three sequels are definitely watchable.
Starting in 1984, A Nightmare on Elm Street is a classic that managed to keep its grim and dark atmosphere throughout all nine movies released to date. Franchise’s centerpiece, Freddy Kruger, is the ultimate villain from nightmares, and that is exactly what he delivers to his victims. If you want the same treatment, then this is a franchise you can’t miss out on.
Jason Voorhees surely takes place as one of the biggest and most recognizable movie serial killers out there. He is simply a horror icon, a rock star in his own twisted, demented way. Friday the 13th franchise is another classic with its own unique atmosphere. There are 12 movies in the series, some great, others not so, but all definitely worth watching.
Original Halloween from 1978 might be the first horror slasher movie ever. It follows Michael Mayers as he escapes the mental asylum after being locked up for killing his family as a boy. The Halloween franchise has the all the quality of a good horror movie and accompanied by one of the most recognizable soundtracks, it is bound to send chills down your spine.
Compared to some other horror film series, Alien movies haven’t aged a bit. The original is one of the best horror movies ever and the sequels, while not on par with the first one, are still thrilling and nail-biting. The Alien film series has set standards for horror franchises across the world and is rightfully at the top of our best horror movie film series list. The cold atmosphere, the dark setting, the stunning visuals, the terrifying alien, the acting – it has everything for a true masterpiece.

]]>But sometimes, a sequel will actually manage to improve the original creation. Be it a better budget, better technology or just a more confident vision, there are sequels that even give you more value for your money.
In order to show you that there are follow-ups that are definitely worth your time, we prepared a list of top 10 sequels that are better than the original.
X-Men 2 (2003)
Sequel to: X-Men (2000)
X-Men franchise is surely one of the best superhero franchises out there. The sequel manages to bring even more energy to the plot and to introduce more interesting characters. The action is still there as Mutant Academy is under attack by military forces, and the X-Men try to find the assassin who attempted to kill President.
Evil Dead II (1987)
Sequel to: Evil Dead (1981)
The first one was a classic, the second one was a masterpiece. Evil Dead II is a sequel that holds a healthy mixture of comedy, violence, blood, and gore as a group of strangers find themselves shacked up in a cabin while mayhem continues outside.
Friday The 13th Part 2 (1981)
Sequel to: Friday The 13th (1980)
The original established this slasher franchise, but the sequel went a step further and introduced one of the most famous and notorious serial killers of all time, Jason Voorhees, and his hockey mask. The dark atmosphere, the action, the blood and gore, everything is there for a bigger and better sequel.
Toy Story 2 (1999)
Sequel to: Toy Story (1995)
We also have animated movies on our list of top 10 sequels that are better than the original. The first Toy Story movie is great, but the sequel improves on everything and gives that emotional bond with the toys. When Woody is stolen by a toy collector, Buzz and his friends embark on a rescue mission.
Blade II (2002)
Sequel to: Blade (1998)
The first Blade movie stars Wesley Snipes as a superhero who fights vampires. The role made him famous, but the sequel made him a legend. Forming an unusual alliance with the vampires he despises, he has to stop the Reapers, a more terrifying threat to the world.
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)
Sequel to: Star Trek: The Motion Picture
The first Star Trek movie was a bit disappointing but still a box office success. The sequel, however, brings everything fans have hoped for. Admiral Kirk must stop Khan Noonien Singh, his old nemesis, from using ultimate weapon to dominate the galaxy. Action, emotions, and space voyage were all balanced nicely for a classical masterpiece.
Spider-Man 2 (2004)
Sequel to: Spider-Man (2002)
The original did a good job in setting up the world of Spider-Man and Peter Parker. The sequel did all that plus upped the action, as well as gave us one of the most iconic villains in the superhero world, Dr. Otto Octavius.
The Dark Knight (2009)
Sequel to: Batman Begins (2005)
Christopher Nolan had a tough job of beating his first movie. But with the help of Heath Ledger’s brilliant performance as The Joker, this sequel can be called a worthy successor. Batman’s psychological and physical abilities will be put to the test as Joker wreaks havoc on Gotham.
Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
Sequel to: Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope (1977)
The original has set some high standards and precedents, but the sequel brought more action, as rebels where overpowered by the Empire forces on planet Hoth. Relations between characters were deepened and we were given a deeper look into the Star Wars universe.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
Sequel to: The Terminator (1984)
We end our list of top 10 sequels that are better than the original with an absolute all-time classic. Arnold Schwarzenegger returns in his iconic role of the Terminator. With a better budget and the initial idea, James Cameron managed to overcome the original. Terminator is now on a mission to save Sarah Connor’s son, John Connor, from a powerful and more advanced cyborg.
