Book-list and Movie list in Appendix...anyone up for it?

[days be strange]

After reading Danse Macabre and learning the love of horror with Stephen King you'll find his compilation of the books and movies that he thought were important to the horror genre. I plan on tackling them ALL. Unfortunately now I currently have exams but soon as I'm done I'm prepared to take the advice of the King and delve head first into them. A lot of them, I'm embarrassed to say, I never heard of before because there before my time and I never really had anyone to introduce me to them. So thank you Mr. King.

...too much interest...too little time...

I looked at the list...again, after reading the thread opener. I've read a few more on the list since I last looked at, not for trying to do so, and I'd already read a dozen or so titles on the list before I first saw it. One somewhat recent was that Highrise, by Ballard, an okay story although it did not blow me away. Reminded me of King's "Cannibals" that might be available somewhere on the site, maybe a PDF file, manuscript-form. Half the battle is knowing what to read and the list is a plus.

I agree Danse Macabre is one of SK best work. I read it last year and oh wow was blown away by his analysis of the horror genre. Planning to read it again
