D'OH! I knew I'd kick myself for not figuring it out.
You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yes, it is. Heh.
I let a hardcore horror fan look at the list, and she knew every single one almost immediately. Well, the ones she didn't know immediately someone else in the room knew immediately. And, hm, I did some Googling, and I'm not sure she got number 2 right. I don't remember what she said. And I don't think what they said for number 15 is right.
Strega, 17 is Sleepy Hollow.

17 is kicking everyone's butt (and ha - I'm typing sideways with a toddler on my lap and first typed "licking" everyone's butt.
6 is harder than I'd thought; you guys got it right, but it's the third-most unanswered.
1 also - no one's gotten that one yet. P-C, did your friend get it?

Oh god, I'm retarded. Excellent.
2 is The Exorcist
15 is Rosemary's Baby.
Was I wrong about 1? It's not Re-Animator?

Yep, yep, and sorry, not Re-Animator.
We decided not to include that movie because it wasn't widely-seen enough, but I'm thinking the movie that #1 really is wasn't either. Or we need to revise the clue.

Huh.
Now I'm fixated. Damn you!

I just replied to your comment with a revised clue. What about:
A doctor’s supernatural experiments in a New England mansion come back to haunt him when his wife mysteriously disappears just before the death of the sensitive young woman who had been infatuated with him.

Strega, that's what my friend thought 1 was as well.
Was I right about 17, Raq? That was the first thing I thought of when I saw it, but I wasn't sure.

Yes, that's 17.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
Hah! I figured that was 17. So far #1 and #20 are the only ones I don't have a clue about.
