what they both said

What they all said.
All that and Maniac and Alligator too??! Now, to repent the sin of voting against Day The Earth Stood Still and The Thing From Another World. |
1980.
|
Pointless but 1951
I do love The Changeling though |
2002 was a great year but can't vote against 1980 for The Shining, Friday the 13th, Changeling and Inferno.

1980. Although, I ALMOST voted for 2002 just for Dog Soldiers ::big grin::

99 as well.
|
From Dusk To Dawn & The Frightners pushed me to vote
1996 |
The Innocents, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Curse of the Werewolf, Mr. Sardonicus, and Night Tide...seals my vote for 1961.
|
I'm in the 99 club too.
|
This one's coming down to the wire!
|
Pretty close here... I'd give 1999 he nod.
The Sixth Sense, Audition, Stigmata, The Blair Witch Project are big hitters in this small pond. Never a big fan of The Curse of the Werewolf. The Frighteners or From Dusk Till Dawn. |

Think I'll have to go with 83.
In the event things go "dark" again, I've had a blast with this and appreciate the work that you've put into it. Pretty sure I speak for everyone. |
1983

I'm taking 1983. Videodrome practically ended the debate for me. Indeed, as Bloofer Lady said, thank you for the time and effort! Loving every stage of the tournament. |
Pretty easy pick for 1983... quality and volume.
Videodrome, Christine, The Dead Zone, Cujo, The Keep, The Hunger, Sleepaway Camp, Michael Jackson's Thriller, Twilight Zone: The Movie Standouts from 59: House on Haunted Hill, The Twilight Zone (original TV series run) and The Hound of the Baskervilles. Standouts from 93: Jurassic Park and Cronos. Not enough to top 83. |
Throwing a vote to 1959.
|
59
|
Crap, 83. I'm a sucker for Sleep Away Camp.

Have to go with 1959 (great year!)
