I will back The Fog and...
Hmm, it's almost impossible for me to choose between Pumpkinhead and Return of the Living Dead, but if the general opinion here is that we should stick to two, I guess I'll back Return of the Living Dead.
My REASON for doing so:
I've socialised a lot with other horror fans over the years, and the ONE movie pretty much everyone seemed to love was Return of the Living Dead. Even non-horror fans seems to enjoy it, and friends have quoted that movie more times than I can count. And wasn't it the movie that actually started that whole "braaaaain!" thing too? :D
Some of you might disagree with me simply because it's a comedy, but it's honestly my opinion that Return of the Living Dead is one of the main reasons why zombies have crept into pop culture the way they have, and that the movie has quite a lot to do with how people in general perceive zombies.
And this is why I think the movie deserves to be on this list - yes, it's a comedy, but I think it's an important movie for the genre.
