The best horror movie of all time and the "Academy" knows it.

Rating: 10/10 (18 September 2002)

The Silence of the Lambs is the best horror film of all time. My writings for this is backed by results- the United States Academy Awards. They gave this film Best Picture,Actor, and Actress (and other awards as well). Anthony Hopkins deserves 20 Oscars from the Academy for his magnificent work for this piece of cinema. I also believe Hopkins could have won for The Edge or Meet Joe Black. However, I somewhat disagree with Jodie Foster receiving an Oscar for this film because her West Virginian accent wasn't that well executed by the actress. This film is a true classic and I would highly recommend that you rent this film if you want to be afraid. Hannibal Lecter (Hopkins) is like no other horror movie character that we have seen in film before. I found Hannibal's style, words, mentality, and his plain creepiness to be one of the best horror characters ever written or acted! I can not say enough good things about this Thriller/Horror classic. If you decide to watch this film for the first time, enjoy! You WILL become afraid of Dr. Hannibal Lecter!
