Chris & Kelsey lay the best schemes. What could possibly gang agley? The Classic Film: Dial M for Murder (1954) "A former tennis player tries to arrange his wife's murder after learning of her affair” (IMDb.com). Ok, we'll admit: this isn't really a horror movie. But it's so good! And the tension is palpable. The Modern Film: You’re Next (2011) "When a gang of masked, ax-wielding murderers descend upon the Davison family reunion, the hapless victims seem trapped... until an unlikely guest of the family proves to be the most talented killer of all” (Lionsgate). The movie that supposedly brought back the home invasion movie and strong horror heroines, You're Next is good, but is it as good as everyone says?
