Top 10 horror films Paramount should put on dvd.

Here's a list of my top 10 horror films that paramount released that should be on dvd. Most of them are modern horror films, but I would love to see the classics as well.

1. Let's scare jessica to death
2. Night School
3. Bug
4. Student Bodies
5. Dust Devil
6. The Sender
7. Phase IV
8. Possession of joel delaney
9/10. Scream greats v.1 & 2


The keep is slated for 2004. Cool.
I left off the SE's of titles already available, like the friday the 13th's. Which will probably see the light of day.

Hopefully titles from my list will, too.


What would your list look like?

Didn't the gang over at Mystery Science Theater 3000 use "Phase IV" as fodder for one of their episodes?

FYI, Universal owns the rights to the early Paramount horrors, including DR CYCLOPS, ISLAND OF LOST SOULS, THE UNINVITED, AMONG THE LIVING and other gems.

Are you implying that, since Universal has been botching so many things lately, they should sell these properties to Paramount?

I concur with FOUR FLIES, I MARRIED A MONSTER FROM OUTER SPACE and THE MAN WHO COULD CHEAT DEATH.

And, as a shameless William Castle junkie, I'd like to see BUG, too.

Let's Scare Jessica To Death

absolutely numero uno for me
after that, Paramount doesn't really own much more genre material i would be interested in save for I Married A Monster From Outer Space.
the rest would be sci fi (Robinson Crusoe On Mars) or fantsy adventure (the Gordon Scott Tarzans).

i seem to be seeing more and more buzz about Jessica on diffferent boards coming from fans so i hope Paramount is noticing and next year we'll get it.

I haven't checked Paramount's properties at IMDb, but of those mentioned here, these will do just fine! The latter two aren't really Horror though.
