OTish - Best Film In a Horror Series


Of the following Horror series with at least three or more movies, which is your single favorite entry of each? Just cut and paste the list and replace with your choices and feel free to add any other series I forgot. I thought this would be fun to do with this new Purge film on the way and The Purge now being a major new Horror series for this generation.

The Insidious movies are pretty good and worth seeing.

Remembered the Critters movies, haven't seen them in years and don't remember whether the first or second was my favorite.

The Purge: Election Year was pretty good and I quite enjoyed it, but I think Anarchy is probably the overall best of the series thus far. Both Anarchy and Election Year are good sequels though and IMO far better than the first.
