The Disco 70s Horror Tournament

[_____V_____]

I was all prepared a couple months back with this, but then the renovations around my residential area put it off for a bit. And I know most of you are really excited by the mouth-watering prospects of this tournament. Heck, just reading the title brings a sparkle to the eyes.

So, without further ado, lets swing the clock back 30-35 years, and relive the modern masterpieces which re-defined modern horror in their glorious times.

Everyone knows my tournament rules. Looks like I have to lay them out again.

Firstly, If I am not online to post the winner, then voting can continue.

Secondly, declaring voting closed at 5 votes would mean disregarding all the other votes cast in after 5, which would be grossly unfair to an entrant trying to make a comeback.

Thirdly, everybody and anybody cannot be online here in HDC 24/7 just to vote in my tournaments. People work through the day, return to home in the evenings, relax, freshen up...or do other stuff and then into HDC and the tournament. In the interest of fairness, all votes cast in a particular match count.

The guideline "First to 5 or 6 or 7..." is for me to see if by the time I m back there's 5 votes cast for a clear winner to emerge. If thats the case, I do it. (Just a little side note here...The Brood is one of my all-time favs, but when I came online The Other had reached 5 votes, end of match)

Everyone knows my tournament rules. Looks like I have to lay them out again.

Firstly, If I am not online to post the winner, then voting can continue.

Secondly, declaring voting closed at 5 votes would mean disregarding all the other votes cast in after 5, which would be grossly unfair to an entrant trying to make a comeback.

Thirdly, everybody and anybody cannot be online here in HDC 24/7 just to vote in my tournaments. People work through the day, return to home in the evenings, relax, freshen up...or do other stuff and then into HDC and the tournament. In the interest of fairness, all votes cast in a particular match count.

The guideline "First to 5 or 6 or 7..." is for me to see if by the time I m back there's 5 votes cast for a clear winner to emerge. If thats the case, I do it. (Just a little side note here...The Brood is one of my all-time favs, but when I came online The Other had reached 5 votes, end of match)

Gotcha, Sorry its just I haven't been around as long as everybody else and I never knew the rules in the first place besides the voting. Sorry.

I'm probably gonna get bashed for this, but........Dracula

I saw Frank Langella in the play in NYC many, many years ago. The man was freakin' HOT back then!!

[Disease]

Dracula..........

[crabapple]

Well.....as cool as Holy Mountain is, it isn't a horror film to me, so...

Dracula!

And I did actually like this version a lot. It's fun, and very 70's.

[newb]

Never saw Holy Mt.

Frank Langella was never my favorite Drac......not gonna vote on this one

[ferretchucker]

I haven't seen holy mountain but I thought dracula wasn't bad so I'll go for dracula on this one.

[Psycom5k]

I actually knew the director of the stage version of this version of Dracula, so I vote for it!
