Boring thread, I know, but I think it makes sense to make it today.
You don't have to say why if you don't feel like it.
Mine is Dawn of the Dead (1978) because it's very entertaining, it has great likeable characters, it has some of the most memorable zombies of all time, it has a lot of great gore and the music is awesome. Also it offers everything you could possibly want from a movie: horror obviously, suspense, action, drama, comedy and even romance. I could watch it everyday and never get tired of it. Not only my favorite horror movie, also my favorite movie of any genre. 10/10

I was in a weird phase in my horror move watching when I first saw this. It was 04, I was living on my own and I would go to blockbuster and rent horror for the weekend and stay home and binge. I felt then that I had seen everything and the genre was at a stale point. So my FTV of D & B was very refreshing, I was immediately sucked in after the burning man "jump scare" which freaked the shit out of me. The gore, score, location atmosphere was on point. After this, I was really into atmospheric horror (Let's Scare Jessica to Death, Martin, Horror Hotel, Messiah of Evil etc)
I adopted it as my IMDB moniker only a few years ago after I got locked out of my original IMDB name and that carried over here.
