The greatest rappers know how to tell a story with their rhymes. And often times, those cuts are so vivid, that they're actually cinematic. In fact, back in July, we gave you 35 rap songs that could easily be turned into awesome films.

So you already know MCs can write raps that are as detailed and ill as any motion picture script. But can rappers also inspire horror films? The answer, of course, is yep, they can do that too.

With Halloween lurking near, we decided to break down some rhymes that might make good horror flicks -- from Eminem with his gory ways to The Geto Boys and their haunting styles. Check out out some of these selections...if you dare.

Eminem - "3 a.m."

Eminem crafted one of his most psychotic characters of all time (and thats saying a whole lot) with “3 a.m.” In the song, Slim plays a man who wakes “up naked at McDonald’s with blood all over” and “dead bodies behind the counter” because, well, he “must’ve just blacked out again.”

And that’s not even half of the morbid, twisted acts this character engages in. Wait 'til you see him drinking...nevermind...too gruesome to type. Oh, and the video is just as bad, if not worse. But it's not a movie (yet).

Kanye West - “Monster”

Picture a former drug dealer who can turn into "Sasquatch, Godzilla, King Kong, Loch Ness Goblin, ghoul,” and "a zombie with no conscience.” But that’s not all.

Okay, so now picture a dude who has eyes that are “more red than the devil is.” Okay, now picture another “gangsta" monster who has a monster automobile. Oh, and we can’t forget a monster who is also a “no-good blood sucker." That’s a mean crew right there. You just need a good plot and let’s be honest, this movie kinda writes itself from here.

DMX - "Damien"

On this song, Damien is introduced as DMX's "guardian angel," buuut as the cut proceeds, we get a plot twist. Damien might have started off as X's friend ("He thinks we're a lot like"), but he eventually reveals himself as quite a terrible influence on the Ruff Ryding MC. And if a studio picks this up, they've got even more on their hands because the song has two sequels that work to tell a whole story.

"The Omen," a Marilyn Manson assisted cut, shows us X's frustration and desperation ("What the f--k have I gotten myself into?") and "Damien III" paints the picture more clearly as X realizes the trouble he's in ("Now I see for who you are"). Three songs in one movie? Sounds doable. Get a director on the line. Oh, and can X at least get a cameo?

Geto Boys - "Mind Playing Tricks On Me"

The rule is that this movie has to begin with our lead character sitting alone in a room staring at candles. The film must also include the evil imagery that the Geto Boys depicted. Need a rundown of some examples?

Scarface has "visions of bodies being burned.” Willie D is so paranoid he fears for his life but only sees “three blind, crippled and crazy senior citizens.” Meanwhile, Bushwick Bill robs children who are trick-or-treating and eventually fights an invisible ghost and bloodies his hands by “punching on the concrete.” If it sounds terrifying, that's because it is.

Gravediggaz - “Diary of a Madman”

You know how the song is called "Diary of a Mad Man?" It's a perfect title for this song. Each verse reads like a journal entry and every line is horrifying. It was as if RZA, Killah Priest, Shabazz the Disciple and Frukwan made a bet at the start of the collaboration process: Who can make the most terrifying verse?

There are "visions of death," "visions of hell," skulls being pierced and, oh yeah, there's RZA chewing off his own arm. How can you not turn all this into a horror film about the diary of a mad man? So who wins in this terror-filled contest? Horrorcore fans. And maybe, horror film fans.

Big L - "Devil's Son"

Big L’s punchline-heavy prowess and smooth delivery made him a fan favorite, but his penchant for evil rhymes would creep in from time to time. “Devil’s Son” is an example of that demonic flavor as he goes through the background of a character he created.

“Being bad, I couldn’t stop,” he rhymes on the track. “When I was in pre-school, I beat a kid to death with a wooden block.” Is that not the genesis of a horror villain? He goes on to talk about having 666 on his head, bragging about how “killing is fun” and and much, much more horrifying material.

Esham - "9 Dead Bodies"

"Dexter" gave TV audiences a peek into the mind of a neat serial killer. On "9 Dead Bodies," Esham shows us a messy one. With gory details, the MC who grew up in New York and Michigan, delivered a chilling account of his eight vicious killings.

So, why is the song called "9 Dead Bodies" if he only talks about brutally murdering eight? That's because ~ spoiler alert ~ he's supposed to be the ninth.

Insane Clown Posse - "Halloween Head"

Eminem’s longtime rivals, Insane Clown Posse, created a creepy Halloween-themed track that could work at a haunted house. Shaggy 2Dope and Violent J trade menacing verses.

Plus, there’s the traditional Halloween imagery here: "a witch on a broom with a full moon behind her.” Now if that ain't Halloween, then you don't know Halloween.

Ganksta N-I-P - “Horror Movie Rap”

Um…Yeah. I’m not kidding. That is indeed the song’s title: “Horror Movie Rap.” And the track lives up to its name. I mean, just check out these tormenting lines: "Mess with N-I-P you must be tired of livin’,” he rhymes on the track. "Cut off your head. Mmm…Thanksgiving.” If you were hungry before that, you are no longer hungry at all. Guaranteed.

Throughout the song, Ganksta also describes “cut-up elephants” and an urge to go swimming in a rat’s urine. Why? Not sure, exactly. And no, I don't want to know. While it might go overboard in its disgusting descriptive manner, the song certainly could work as a horrific tale on-screen (even if it’d have to be scaled down a bit for audiences who don't like rat pee and whatnot).

Tech N9ne “Am I Psycho?"

Tech N9ne, Hopsin and B.o.B. teamed up for a horror movie script of a track on “Am I A Psycho?” The question turns out to be a fair one as each verse offers valid points towards psychotic behavior.

Tech talks about liking fire on his skin (and more we won't get into here), Hopsin talks about mood swings turning his dreams into gruesome scenes and B.o.B. rhymes about breaking faces and then breaking them again. The song provides a solid backdrop of three insanely scary characters that could surely be further developed with the right screenwriter. Plus, the vid is already a trailer for a film that could be a Halloween box office killer.

DJ Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince - “Nightmare On My Street”

Clearly, this song is inspired by the “Nightmare On Elm Street” series. So, it almost didn’t make the list because technically it’s already inspired by another horror film.

But you have to wonder what the series would look like with Will Smith as one of its stars. And at this point, you might even wonder what this series would look like with Jaden Smith as its lead. So, perhaps this might spark an idea for a PG-13 scary movie that the kids might like and that families might even get to go.

Okay, so I wanted to give you a bonus here because I think it warrants its own little section. Brotha Lynch Hung, a producer and rapper from California who's been called "the scariest man in hip-hop," dedicated three albums (Dinner and a Movie, Coathanga Strangla and Mannibalector) to a story about a serial killer. That might make for a horror film (it's something he wanted to do too).

Go ahead and let us know what other horrifying songs you'd love to see on the big screen in the comments.
