[Repo'd]

Bloof, I will never NOT love that avatar!!

Ok, I'm voting under protest because I don't want this to end.

1931 and THE classic Universal Monsters for the win.

[MichaelMyers]

1931 just to put the nail in the coffin, get it? ::devil::

[Roiffalo]

I would've liked to have seen 1981 make it to the finals (that will always be my personal favorite year), but there's no denying this werewolf fan has a soft spot for Dracula. It's so iconic with a great story and characters (looking at you, Renfield, you delightfully twisted soul ::love::), what's not to love?

1931 for me.

[MichaelMyers]

Very sad this will be the last tourney V will ever do.

[Sculpt]

1931.............................................. .1978
M...............................................Ha lloween
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde..................Magic
Dracula (eng)...............................Invasion of the Body Snatchers
Frankenstein................................Dawn of the Dead
Svengali......................................Pira nha
The Mad Genius............................Martin

Two excellent years for the Final!

Adding to 1931's power, "Jekyll/Hyde" and "M" might be better films than Frankenstein and Dracula. The 1978 films, (like the 31's) have their story and cinematic flaws... so at the end I'll vote 1931.

[_____V_____]

HY1931 = 7 (roshiq, hammerfan, The Villain, Repo'd, MichaelMyers, Roiffalo, Sculpt)

HY1978 = 1 (Bloof)


Ladies and gentlemen,

All rise for the WINNER OF THIS TOURNAMENT AND THE KING OF ALL HORROR MOVIE YEARS in history till now:


1931

Thank you, V, hope you have recovered. Next...the horries!

[hammerfan]

Woo hoo! Yay for the classics!

V, I hope you're doing better!

[Bloof]

Thank you V.

[Sculpt]

Thanks for another well done tourney, V! I really enjoyed it! I really had to examine many of the films at unfamiliar levels to make proper comparisons.
