With an average IMDb score of 5.8 from over 33 horror movies released in 2009 it was a pretty average year for horror movies overall. We got some great ones (Zombieland and Thirst) but we also got some serious crap too - just look (or maybe don't) at Clownstrophobia (2009) and Haunting of Winchester House (2009) for example. It's duds like these that give the horror genre a bad name. But fear not, we've sorted the cream from the crap for you.So grab some snacks and a drink (and maybe something to hide behind) and check out reviews, ratings and trailers for the 2009 - Top 5 Horror Movies ranked by Amazon.
