As the lists continue to pour in for the 40s, let's start our summation for the first period of this era - the 1890s to the 1920s.

The Sealed Room (1909) - Straker
The Unholy Night (1929) - The Ugly Duchess
Wolf Blood (1925) - Chronogrl


17 films have made it in, by a vote percentage of over 50%.

We need to select 3 more films from the other two sections (preferably from the DEBATABLE section), and 6 Honorable Mentions from the rest.

I have posted the names of the HDC-ians who sent in their unique choices, i.e., those which got only 1 vote, and that vote was theirs only.

Please post your reasons for choosing your unique films, your backing for the MINORITY & DEBATABLE selections, and why you feel your chosen ones should be included in the 3 remaining spots and/or the 6 Honorable Mentions for this first period of horror.

OR

If everyone is in agreement, we can toss in the two films with 4 votes into the final selection. That way we end up with 19 films, and need to select ONE from the rest.

So, go ahead. Post your views.
