Most people take that to mean highlighting one horror movie a day, but here at FSR, we\u2019ve taken that up a spooky notch or nine by celebrating each day with a top ten list. This article about the best final horror movies by great directors is part of our ongoing series <strong>31 Days of Horror Lists<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Quentin Tarantino has said that he wants to retire before he gets too old and his movies become uncool. He\u2019s of the belief that many directors\u2019 late-career work isn\u2019t as strong as their earlier output, and he doesn\u2019t want the quality of his films to deteriorate. Fair enough. Of course, that\u2019s not the case for every director. Just look at Martin Scorsese, for example. He\u2019s still killing it and shows no signs of losing his touch. While it\u2019s true that many filmmakers do go downhill toward the end of their careers, plenty of others still produce awesome movies right up to the end.<\/p>\n<p>This list \u2014 which was carefully curated by\u00a0Chris Coffel,\u00a0Valerie Ettenhofer,\u00a0Kieran Fisher,\u00a0Brad Gullickson,\u00a0Rob Hunter,\u00a0Meg Shields,\u00a0Jacob Trussell,\u00a0Anna Swanson, and yours truly \u2014 honors the horror filmmakers whose final contributions to the genre were top notch. It\u2019s worth noting that some of them are still alive, although it\u2019s highly unlikely that they\u2019ll ever direct another scary movie. Others went on to make other films after their final forays into horror as well, but this exercise is only concerned about their farewell fright flicks. So here are the best final movies in the genre from some of our favorite horror filmmakers!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Frankenstein_Unbound_Roger_Corman_1990\"><\/span>10.

Romero<\/strong> had one final word to say about the relationship between humans and the living dead that he reinvented more than forty years earlier. Similar to how <em>Dawn of the Dead<\/em> shows that vacuous consumerism could affect not only our lives but our deaths, too, <em>Survival of the Dead<\/em> aims to prove that even after we are undead and gone, humanity\u2019s desperate thirst for conflict to provide meaning in their lives will persist, like a generational feud between warring families that spills into the afterlife.<\/p>\n<p>In retrospect, there\u2019s a benign optimism in this film that is genuinely refreshing after a decade of the bleak zombie aesthetic that\u2019s come to typify the subgenre this century. As Romero\u2019s films have always said: the world wouldn\u2019t stop turning once the dead rose from the grave. We would just have to get used to a whole new way of life. It may not have the same shine as his original trilogy, but in Romero\u2019s final movie, his ethos about the living dead is still strong and loud. And we miss it all the time.

That\u2019s a strange thing to say considering that he directed three features, one of which (<em>Hellraiser<\/em>) is widely regarded as a genre classic. Unfortunately, his other directorial efforts flopped and he hasn\u2019t been able to get his other projects off the ground since then. In recent years, health issues have made him focus on writing and other non-film projects. However, his movies have gone on to find strong cult fan bases who are ravenous for more Barker joints, and it\u2019s a shame we\u2019ll probably never see another new one.<\/p>\n<p><em>Lord of Illusions<\/em> is the black sheep movie in his oeuvre. It doesn\u2019t have the same towering influence over genre cinema as <em>Hellraiser<\/em>, and it hasn\u2019t been reappraised on the same level as <em>Nightbreed<\/em>. In my opinion, it\u2019s a better movie than the latter. Based on Barker\u2019s short story \u201cThe Last Illusion,\u201d the plot centers around a Philip Marlowe-esque private investigator who finds himself involved in a mystery involving magic, fanatical cults, and demons. It\u2019s terrifying occult horror funneled through the lens of noir, and it\u2019s the best example of this underappreciated subgenre.

Gory kills, sharp writing, and a smart deconstruction of the slasher genre make for some endlessly entertaining horror movies, and Craven goes out on top by delivering the second-best entry in the series with\u00a0<em>Scream 4<\/em>. Yeah, I said that.<\/p>\n<p>The kills are bloody, and Kevin Williamson\u2019s script has fun dissecting the horrors through a more modern media-savvy lens. Cast regulars return once again, but the newcomers shine equally bright, with fun turns from Lucy Hale, Alison Brie, and a never-been-better Hayden Panettiere. There\u2019s really only a single misstep in the film, and that\u2019s the dull, charisma-sucking presence of Emma Roberts, but not even she can drag this gem down.

His vision and talent helped bring life to the Universal Classic Monsters and in doing so created a generation of little horror fans the world over. In 1935, he directed not his final movie but his last work of horror with\u00a0<em>Bride of Frankenstein<\/em>, a direct sequel to his 1931 adaptation of\u00a0<em>Frankenstein<\/em>. Amazingly, Whale managed to improve on everything he accomplished the first time around.\u00a0<em>Bride of Frankenstein<\/em>\u00a0is a gorgeous film that holds up remarkably well. It\u2019s classic horror that feels modern. And the film\u2019s story about a relationship that society doesn\u2019t deem natural couldn\u2019t be more relevant.
