Thanks for the clarification, V.
My vote goes to 1936. Invisible Ray is brilliant, and Dracula's Daughter is one of Horror's under appreciated noir-ish classics. It's hard to vote against Horror Express and Last House, but the competition is as stiff as a cadaver! |
1972

I have to go with 1972

Not only for Lewton-Karloff collaborations or House of Dracula but I'd love to vote 1945 mainly for DEAD OF NIGHT...the pioneer in Horror anthologies with a great collection of different sort of twisted stories that inspired many films later in the genre and needless to say...the framing story was a real shocker to me considering the time period, something that was ahead of its time.
But damn, V! Didn't expect 2016 this early in the tournament. Unexpectedly it turned out quite a great year for the genre. Voting 2016 mainly for Jane Doe, Under the Shadow and Train to Busan! https://s1.postimg.org/ibv13w08v/JD_UTS.jpg |
Shit. This is far from easy. Train To Busan and The Boy are very entertaining films, and The Neon Demon is my favorite movie from last year, but Lewton and Karloff twice? Add House of Dracula to the mix along with Lon Chaney JR in Pillow of Death and I'm giving the nod to 45.

train to busan is too great
2016 |

We had finally ended up with 86 contestant Horror Years. Since the tournament format can fit 81, we are having this Qualifier Round for 10 of them, out of which 5 winners will cement their spots in the Final 81. I chose 10 Horror Years with films with the least impact/viewership. Needless to say, 2016 was the default choice since it's the latest completed year. 10 paper chits inside a bowl, and my little Princess is picking out 2 at random. HY2016 - 2 (roshiq, X¤MurderDoll¤X) HY1945 - 1 (Repo'd) Waiting for more... |
