You might assume Andy Serkis would be tired of participating in films in which audiences never see his face. You'd be wrong. Known for his incredible performance capture work in Lord of the Rings (as Gollum) and King Kong (he brought the massive beast to life), Serkis had a great time providing just the voice of a henchrat named Spike in Flushed Away.

According to Sam Fell, co-director of Flushed Away with David Bowers, Spike and his cohort in crime Whitey (voiced by Bill Nighy) are a couple of bumbling bad guys who don't really have either the brains or the talent to do much harm. "[They're] really just a couple of idiots," says Fell. "They really want to be bad guys, but they're just not any good at being bad."

In Honor of Halloween - My 10 Favorite Horror Movies
Frankly, the strangest things scare me. I don't like clowns or butterflies but can tolerate spiders, snakes and other creepy beasts. But when it came time to put together a top list of horror films, compiling this 'Best Of' list was relatively easy. Most of the films I've selected are mainstream frightfests that send goosebumps racing up and down the spines of even the most hardened horror movie fans.
