Well, today has arrived, so I will cast the deciding vote. I will vote between the two tied items. My vote goes to Return of the Living Dead (I will explain why I like it in the results section).

It appears we have a winner! Here were the results:
The Beyond: 3 (MichaelMyears, Giganticface, and tiberius) Day of the Dead: 5 (The Villain, realdealblues, Anthropophagus, knife_fight, and xX__StarChild_Xx) Return of the Living Dead: 6 (V, hammerfan, Sculpt, knife_fight, natedog722, and metternich1815-tie breaking vote) Thus, after an incredibly close match and with the thread creator participating, Return of the Living Dead has come out the winner! Unfortunately, I have never seen Day of the Dead and this is the primary reason I could not vote for that film (it is in my Netflix DVD queue though). If the tie would have been between The Beyond and Return of the Living Dead, it would have been much harder, but unfortunately it was not. With that being said, I believe that Return of the Living Dead is a brilliant spin on the zombie sub-genre. It is both funny with numerous one-liners and an intentionally over-the-top ending, while also remaining quite dark. Plus, this is the film where people get the idea that zombies eat brains (also the director of this film, Dan O'Bannon, was the principal writer of Alien). Definitely a worthy film to represent the zombie sub-genre in the 1980s. We will now move into our final round. Deciding which film is the best of the 1980s. |

1980s Horror Movie Tournament Final Round: This section will be organized according to sub-genre with the first sub-genre going first (the other sections were organized according to release date). Choose one film (to represent the best horror film of the 1980s). The first to five wins! (If there is a tie, I will cast tie-breaker. If no one achieves five, I will probably allow a maximum of two weeks if we do not have a winner by then, then the film with the highest number of votes wins.)
 Vs  Vs  Vs  Vs  Vs

A great line up but The Thing wins it for me.

It was between Fright Night and The Thing for me, but I'm going with John Carpenter's Masterpiece "The Thing".
