The Favorite Films Of My Lifetime: 2009

Well this is the year they expanded the Best Picture category and it already seemed like there were too many movies and movies that you kinda think were good...but Best Picture?  Oh well.  Glancing across the year I noticed that this was a really good year with me and horror's relationship.  We actually rekindled greatly with a certain film that will appear on this list.  When I had my big list that I had to cut down, a lot of it was horror movies.  I know I'm already a blowhard for the genre to begin with, but this a year that maybe restored my love for it.
