I can think of 50 better movies from the last 13 years, easily.
No its not.... You can argue whether it can fit into the horror genre and I wouldn't have much of an argument against it, but it is clearly more weighted towards a sci-fi movie. But we are talking semantics, the only thing that is relevant is whether it belongs in the top 20 movies of the last 13 years and it really doesn't.
Ironically, Mark of the Vampire is a Tod Browning flick from the 30's. But I'm pretty sure even Browning would be struggling to compete with the movies of the 2000s, which all seem to have great acting and character development....

You have the right to your opinion, but I believe that Thirteen Ghosts was actually quite excellent.
Obviously, I have already shared my views on The Cabin in the Woods, so I guess we will have to disagree there too.
I understand what you are saying on Signs, but I, personally, believe that it deserves a place in the list. In my opinion, it is great and still creeps me out.
Not all movies in the 2000s have great acting and character development, just the ones that I said they did (obviously in my opinion). I did not think that it as really that good in Dawn of the Dead (2004) as one example.
I guess on these we will have to agree to disagree because, while I see your arguments, I simply can not agree with them. I do respect your opinion though.
