Alien/Aliens is a given for most people. I have been watching Event Horizon during the spooky season for years. What are some of your favorite books and movies with a horror/psychological thriller lean?

The sequence where the Asian dude fights the head cannibal mutant toward the end, then gets suckered in by the cannibal mutant child. The whole thing is unnecessary, and taints what could have been a semi-serious scifi/horror flick. Don't get me wrong, it's one of my guilty pleasures. It started out strong, then turned into a Paul W. S. Anderson flick. The same dude who cheapened Event Horizon, which could have also been awesome, instead of Hellraiser in Space, part 2. But I'm sure the producers on both flicks had a lot to do with them.
