2011 was a big year. There was the royal wedding, Game of Thrones arrived on TV, Novak Djokovic won his first Wimbledon title, and some of the most ingenious horror films of the modern era. We got a supernatural ghost hunt with The Innkeepers, grisly murder mysteries like You're Next, and . . . Shark Night 3D. OK, they weren't all winners, but as someone who's been watching horror movies since the tender age of 7, I can attest that it was an overall amazing year for horror.
