Stay Alive is pretty good as recent horror movies go, and the storyline is relatively original

SCREAM (1996) directed by horror legend Wes Craven (Nightmare on Elm Street, etc.) and written by Kevin Williamson (I Know What You Did Last Summer, Dawson's Creek, The Faculty). This movie single handedly reinvigorated the horror genre in American cinema. SCREAM relaunched the genre into what it is today - one of the most produced and profitable genres in Hollywood.
Having said that SCREAM was a terrific film. It was well written (satyrical, funny, scary, smart, edgy, suspenseful) and well directed (use of symbolism, great suspense, Craven is called the "master of suspense"). But perhaps one of the best, and most overlooked qualities of SCREAM was its original score, which was extremely creepy and well used throughout the film just as classic horror films did the same (Halloween and Friday the 13th come to mind). The movie also starred a wealth of young talent that would launch their respective careers (Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, Rose McGowan, Jamie Kennedy, Mathew Lilliard, Courtney Cox, David Arquette, Liev Schreiber, Drew Barrymore). The film was able to poke fun of the horror genre while at the same time do exactly what it made fun of (running upstairs when you should run outside, tripping/stopping when chased by the killer, breaking the "Rules of Survival") therefore paying homage to a faded genre and resurrect it single handedly

If it were up to me, I'd choose what might be the best horror movie I've ever seen;
Shaun of the Dead.
It's a British comedy-horror film.

A Tale Of Two Sisters: Review
Like a fairy tale set in a haunted house, this terrifying psychological horror yarn from Korea preys upon deep-rooted fears of adolescence, insanity and evil stepparents while scaring the bejabbers out of us. After a lengthy convalescence at a sanitarium following the death of their mother, teenage Su-mi (Soo-jung Im) and her younger sister, Su-yeon (Geun-young Moon), return to the dark, wooden house deep in the Korean countryside where their passive, depressed father, Mu-hyun (Kab-su Kim), lives with his second wife, Yun-ju (Jeong-a Yeom). It's an uncomfortable homecoming: Yun-ju resents the girls' reappearance nearly as much as they resent her attempts to replace their late mother, and they're both terrified of Yun-ju's weird behavior. Her moods swing violently from manic cheerfulness to brooding malevolence, she creeps around the house at night and keeps bloody, revolting things wrapped in paper in the refrigerator. Mu-hyun is no help whatsoever: He seems to find nothing unusual about his new wife and worries that Su-mi's anxieties may be indicative of an incomplete recovery. Like Snow White and Rose Red, Su-mi and Su-yeon cling to each other, the older girl promising to protect her younger sister from the clutches of their wicked stepmother. Those bare feet heard running through the empty hallways, however, don't belong Yun-ju, and even she begins to suspect there may be another kind of evil at work here, one that has infected the entire house. The film springs a number of twists that may leave you scratching your head, but when it comes to terror, writer-director Jee-woon Kim instinctively knows that no computer-generated bogeyman is any match for a creaking floorboard, a slowly turning doorknob and a door swinging open bit by bit. He's also a master of pacing — even when you know what's coming, he still delivers a solid jolt — and cinematographer Mo-gai Li's keen sense of color balance and composition make this freaky fairy tale the most beautiful — if not the scariest — horror movie in ages.
