This is a tough one in that my 54 is really only hoisting 'Gojira', 'Creature from the Black Lagoon' and 'THEM!'. But what a marvel the three are.
For 1965, I really like The Last Man on Earth for it's many facets: stark, claustrophobic, intelligent and spiritual. Otherwise 1964's boasts some visually beautiful and striking films, none more than Blood and Black Lace, although otherwise described as stupefying. Onibaba has excellent direction and Kwaidan also boasts terrific sets, though can be can sighingly incomprehensible ("to Westerners" they say), though perhaps just not for everyone. I thought Devil Doll was scary and effective, although it doesn't garner much popular praise. The Tomb of Ligeia, is notable, but I've just never been a fan... as I find the gothic slowness and melodrama so painfully aimless... neither scary nor sharp, not making any point... there's apparently romance and emotion in there... but I can't access it from the ether. And again, with The Masque of the Red Death... I really don't get it. Using an overused phrase, it is what it is... has some nice visuals, but I didn't find it scary nor stark, and whatever the point was, I didn't enjoy the trip. No accounting for taste sometimes.

HY1954 - 4 (MichaelMyers, Jake.Ashworth, Sculpt, Repo'd)
HY1964 - 3 (Bloof, hammerfan, roshiq) The 50s heavy sucker punches the 60s classic to score a nail-biting win!
