The Horror Stars Tournament

The recently concluded Movie Series/Franchise tournament had many horror franchises battling it out for supremacy...some powered by their ingenuity...others powered by absolute star-power. Since the 1930s, many actors and actresses have managed to carve themselves huge niches in the horror genre, and most have gone on to pursue bigger careers in it.

Today horror is a multi-faceted genre. And it is simply because no successful horror movie is complete without a stand-out performance. This tournament is shaped to pit some of the biggest stars of this incredible genre against each other...to see who is crowned as the King and Queen of horror.

The tournament is divided into two Parts. The first Part covers nearly most of the actors who made themselves Legends or Badasses in horror...while the second Part deals with Scream Queens & Vamps which have terrorised and stolen the hearts of many horror fans alike...

There are innumerable stars of Hollywood which glitter the genre. So I took a cut-off point of at least 4 movies in which the star has performed a thrilling or horrific role on-screen...so if you feel that a particular star should be included in this tournament, feel free to PM me rightaway...but no questions in the tournament thread, please. Thank you. :)

Also, the voting goes the same as usual like in mine and bwind's tourneys. If I am not online to declare the winner, keep the votes coming...

So, without further ado, I roll out for you...the Horror Stars Tournament, Part I...


Part I: Badasses & Legends, Round 1 Match 1


John Saxon (Tenebre, Black Christmas, Cannibal Apocalypse, A Nightmare on Elm Street)






vs.




Donald Sutherland (Invasion of the Body Snatchers, An American Haunting, Virus, The Puppet Masters)






First star to 5 votes wins...

Hmm... John Saxon or Donald Sutherland... Donald was in Beefest... Saxon was in From Dusk 'Til Dawn.

Decisions, Decisions...

John Saxon.

John Saxon has met up with Freddy Krueger and Bruce Lee. Plus, he was in Tenebre. Anybody who's in both Argento and Bruce Lee movies deserves major props. Saxon for me, although I do like Sutherland a lot.

I like Saxon quite a bit, but I've got to go with Sutherland.
