..they only have permission to place it in the same thread as "The Official HDC Top 100" ...direct after the other list...and change the name of the thread to : "All HDC Top 100 "

Thanks a lot, to either Zwoti or BR, for making this a sticky...(FINALLY!)...


:D

Roderick Usher 01-05-2007 08:28 AM

I was just going over the list with my 9 year-old and he's seen 15 of them already and he owns a half dozen more in the VHS collection (over 200 tapes) my little brother gave him.

_____V_____ 01-06-2007 11:57 PM

Just reading through the list...and I must say that Bad Taste and Videodrome are not as obscure or underappreciated. I d ve preferred to see Carpenter's Prince of Darkness, The Twins Effect or Uzumaki instead.

Maybe not many people mentioned those. I dont remember mentioning them myself.:o

Im sure you'll agree that they're a hell of a lot lesser known than Doom or Hostel, which were also in the running.

I'd even say Doom before Hostel. Doom wasn't the greatest movie (that's for sure) but it did have some fun moments and a good bit of gore. I think Doom did exactly what it wanted to as a film and I got more out of it than I expected I would. Hostel on the other hand was an alright movie but I was underwhelmed by almost every aspect of it. Hostel also had much more exposure and hype. Not that it matters... neither of the two made it. I could think of a few deserving movies that aren't there too but it's not MY list it's OUR list. I think Bad Taste is criminally underappreciated as Braindead stole all the thunder. If Videodrome wasn't listed in the original top 100 then I think this list is a great place for it... great movie.

who submitted those?

Doc Faustus 01-08-2007 08:58 AM

What it would be possible to accomodate some new blurbs on some of the items posted without blurbs? I've got some things to say about Freaks, Videodrome and a couple of other favorites on the list. This is an amazing selection, by the way. Good work Flayed and all others involved. Were it not so much work, I'd suggest the creation of more lists for people just getting started on the forum and trying to get a collection of things they dig and cool viewing experiences. A smaller list, like a "Kitsch 25" or a "Sci-fi horror 25" or something would look really cool and could be a good service to the forum someday.

The Mothman 01-11-2007 07:23 AM

sooooo....anyone takin the Man Bites Dog blurb?

The Flayed One 01-11-2007 01:57 PM

@Doc - I was hoping you'd want to write some, and I think Freaks is right up your ally! If you want some more, all you need do is ask.

@Mothman - You greedy bastard;) If no one wants it in a week or so, it's yours.

@All six judges, request what you want now. urge & bwind, I'm still waiting on a few from you guys.

And a special message for the zwoti ninja - No need to wait for what's left. You helped create this list; these blurbs are yours for the taking mate!

Get these blurbs rolling!

PS@zero - I believe Lady in White is yours, unless I'm wrong

The_Return 01-11-2007 01:59 PM

Im working on my Vidocq one...would really appreciate The Amazing Mr. X as well, so long as nobody else wants it:)

Yours! We're going infomercial style here!

Doc Faustus 01-11-2007 02:27 PM

Thanks, Flayed. If you guys don't mind, I'd like to take Freaks and Videodrome.

The Flayed One 01-11-2007 02:29 PM

There's already one for Videodrome, but Freaks is all yours, my friend:)

alkytrio666 01-11-2007 02:38 PM

My other two are coming, Flayed, I swear...but are any of these available, now that everything's up for grabs?
  • Profondo Rosso (aka Deep Red)
  • Doctor X
  • L'uccello Dalle Piume di Cristallo (aka Bird with the Crystal Plumage)
  • Shadow of a Doubt
  • Teenagers From Outer Space
  • The Blob
  • The Leopard Man

Doc Faustus 01-11-2007 02:42 PM

Thanks, Flayed. It's in your box. Got anyone for Repulsion?

lol ya i know im a blurb hog.

neverending 01-11-2007 08:44 PM

Hey Flayed- did you get my Incredible Shrinking Man "blurb?"

I had such a good time doing it I'd take a stab at Witchfinder General if no one else wants it...

Or maybe I'll be banned for verbosity. :/

I'm actually really looking forward to seeing your I.S.M. blurb. You've got fine taste, this should be good.

I emailed it via the link in your profile. I couldn't find an addy anywhere else.

Doc Faustus 01-12-2007 11:06 AM

Repulsion's in your PM box, Flayed. Thanks for your time.

Speaking of which, how about a Lemora blurb from the movies' biggest fan?:p

Ahhh. I completely forgot about that email account. The one linked to my profle is one I never check, I just use it for signing up for sites. Thanks for the essa...I mean blurb!

Spec7ral 01-14-2007 04:17 AM

can i have feast and cannibal the musical blurbs if no one else wants them?

Side note: "Dead Meat" I really feel that it deserves to be at least viewed by the lot of you. This forum has some of the greatest horror opinions you could ever assemble, and i think that if you guys could agree that this movie mightneed to be viewed...? It's just a thought and i don't want to piss off Flay or any of the judges who put in a ton of time into a great list... it's just i pwn a bunch of these flix and I think that "Dead Meat" is an absolutely great movie that has gone unnoticed for wahtever reasons. Other flicks may have made it with good reason, but if you watch "Dead Meat" in the same setting you would watch "28 days later" or any other creepy zombie flick i think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I wouls love to have man bites dog but moth has that one... maybe i could get in a glass cage if its still around after the next atonement.

The Flayed One 01-14-2007 04:24 AM

Feast is tentatively taken, but go ahead and grab Cannibal if you like. No offence taken (by me at least) for the Dead Meat comment. I just didn't have time to watch it, and I think a lot of the others were pressed the same way. I'll give it a go after I get moved and settled in. I honestly wish I could have watched all 200-and-some odd movies that were suggested; it's just too many hours that I can't afford to spend at this point in my life. Trust me though, there will be other projects, and most movies that deserve to show up on a list will be there;)

That movie is so creepy that I can't even think of something to say about it!

Although I would like to edit my Horror Express review, just to smoothen it a little.

Could I do Witchfinder General, or have you seen enough of my writing for one lifetime?

Yes, you can. I think your writing is awesome, just try to pare it down a tad so the forum allows me to post the other four blurbs on the page. Space constraints, you know;)

neverending 01-14-2007 07:59 AM

LOL... I will... sorry.
