Well, fair enough, that's how YOU feel... however, that's exactly how I feel about Ringu, yet I would never claim it wasn't a horror movie. And again, The Raven, a wonderful comedy that a few of us backed... that's not even trying to be scary.

I very much doubt that you will be able to find just ONE movie that scares everybody who sees it, so if what scares someone as an individual dictates if something is a horror movie or not, horror movies don't exist.

I have chosen not to back anything for the 80s list, as I don't want to back something just for the sake of backing something.

I'm fine with whatever we'll end up with.

All I ever did was state my opinion. I never said yours was wrong.

Same here :) Just "defending" my reasons for why I think Ghostbusters is a horror movie... nothing personal.

Still in search for 2 more films to finalise for the Honorable Mentions of the 90s.

I'll back Cemetary Man and Natural Born Killers. This 90's list is never gonna look perfect anyway. The 90's were not a good year for horror.

_____V_____ 08-18-2013 04:46 AM

And so we arrive again at the 6 Honorable Mentions for the 90s.

If the majority are in agreement, we can pack up the 90s and start working on the 00s.

Oh you didn't! :) You're obviously as entitled to your opinion as I am to mine. It's easy to be misunderstood in writing, and unfortunately I sometimes come across as pissed off, offended or angry. The truth is I very rarely am. I'm sorry if I worded my posts in such a way that it made you feel like I was biting your head off, that wasn't my intention.
