Tough one... 1932

I think Night of the Living Dead is easily one of the best horror films ever, and Rosemary's Baby is a fine work, but they're alone. Whereas for 1932 -- Island of Lost Souls, Kongo, Murders in the Rue Morgue, Freaks, Vampyr and The Most Dangerous Game (not to mention The Mummy) is an impressive cultivated class of Horror.

The fact that I'm voting against 1989 and the movie Santa Sangre whilst sporting an avatar from said movie is a pretty clear indication of how strong the year 1960 is.

1960 for me.
