The Guardian/Observer greatest films of all time are being revealed and you can follow the whole lot here.
Each day, our top 25 movies will be released, and each day here on the Datablog we will add them to our and the sortable table below.
Today is the horror 25. We're led by Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. What films would you add to the list? Here's what Peter Bradshaw says today:
Horror crashes through boundaries and challenges the prohibitions of taste and thinkability in a way few other genres can match. Classics of the genre were produced in cinema's very earliest days – the vampire nightmare Nosferatu and The Cabinet of Dr Caligari from the world of German Expressionism.
We've added loads of extra info to the spreadsheet, including the key Guardian and IMDB links, plus the country of origin. At the end of the week we'd like to visualise the whole lot, and we want you to help us. So, let us know what you can do with the data.
