Okay, majority are in agreement so our top 22 for the 50s are sealed.

Let's now look into the Honorable Mentions. The underlined films below the "IN THE CUT" section have the most backings so far, and they are SIX in number. Any debates for/against any of them? If no, we can shortlist them and move into the 60s.

All in agreement, or there's scope for debate for those SIX films underlined?

One thing I will say is that I pretty much consider most, if not all, of the sci-fis of the 50s to be horror (and I have seen many horror movie documentaries and so forth do the same). After that decade, I am more selective. I am not saying that after the fifties I do not include sci-fis, merely that I actually look at the film's characteristics and determine if I would consider it to be horror.

As much as I love Day the Earth Stood Still, I still don't consider it to be a horror movie. I think the film directly below it, The Quatermas Xperiment is much more of a horror film.

I back The Quatermas Xperiment.

Though, I won't beef if Stood Still makes it in.

I really do love Tarantula, but there is one other film that I think better deserves to be on the list and that is the film I will back. So, I will negative vote Tarantula and back The Quatermass Xperiment.

Tarantula drops out, Quatermass comes in. We still have SIX shortlisted.

Anyone else agreeing/against those selected?

Agree...............

I'm not sure if I can or need to back anything at this point, but if I can, I'm backing The Quatermass Xperiment too.

That all sounds good to me. Good movies on that list
