Hoosiers

Somewhere in Time

Somewhere in Time
Monster Squad

This.

abstain, a haven't seen two of those.

Hoosiers

I don't know if I can decide between the other two. The Monster Squad was a childhood favorite that I watched a thousand times. When I got a little older and discovered Lucio Fulci. City Of The Living Dead was the first film I saw from him. It remains one of my favorites and is a true masterpiece of Italian Horror. (I think we need a Top 100 Italian Horror list in the future)

I guess I'm going to vote for The Monster Squad because when I think of the 80's in general it pops more into my mind, but I think we need a "100 Classic Italian Horror Movies You Need To See" list.

Hoosiers

City of the Living Dead

Hoosiers - 4
Somewhere in Time - 2

The Monster Squad - 5
City of the Living Dead - 2


Monster Squad seems to have sealed it's win. Still waiting for decider votes in the Non-Horror matchup...

Me as well

I'll have that.

The Postman Always Rings Twice
The Blob (88)

This one is easy for me...

Better Off Dead
and Manhunter

Manhunter is a good film, and took a bit of an underground route to popularity. I haven't liked any blob movie to date. Better Off Dead is a quirky fun sub-classic, where Cusack showed what he does best. The Postman Always Rings Twice never worked for me, and evidently didn't work for the vast majority of people. Generally speaking, it seems to get good reviews only from the die-hards, snobby about the subject matter, Mamet & Nicholson. Compare Postman 1981 to say Double Indemnity 1944, and you see clearly which is the Emperor's New Clothes.

Non-Horror:

The Postman Always Rings Twice - 7 (hammerfan, The Villain, horcrux2007, realdealblues, newb, neverending, metternich1815)
Better Off Dead - 2 (MichaelMyers, Sculpt)


Horror:

Manhunter - 6 (hammerfan, horcrux2007, realdeablues, newb, neverending, Sculpt)
The Blob - 3 (The Villain, MichaelMyers, metternich1815)


Easy, confident wins for both The Postman Always Rings Twice and Manhunter!!
