Blu-ray.com Community Top Horror Film of Each Year of the 1960's & 1970's

[csdot]

Now that the 1980's-present list is out of the way I thought I would see if anyone else would be interested in doing earlier decades since I feel some of the best films of the genre came before 1980.

I'm just going to steal/modify Czar's rules from the previous poll:

List your top Horror film of each year from 1960-1979. As long as your list consist of a movie that came out in that particular year then it qualifies. It doesn't have to be domestic release. In the interest of clarity and avoiding debate please go by the year that is in parenthesis next to the title on IMDB to avoid any confusion.

Here is where I would like to try something different. If you have a favorite film that you might not think is technically the best film of that year, vote for both. My idea was to give the option of 2 films per year, but rate one above the other and assign the #1 pick 2 points and the #2 pick 1 point. That way if you have a difference between what you think is the best and your personal favorite you can give each a chance, but you must rate one above the other either way you choose. Also, you don't have to do favorite and best as I know for a lot of people there is no difference so by all means feel free to just do 2 of your favorite or 2 of the best, as long as you rate one above the other. If you opt to only vote for one film it will get 2 points. The final list will only have ONE winner per year however based on total points.

example:
1960:
1. Psycho 2 points
2. Black Sunday 1 point

aside from that stick to the usual rules:

RULES
1. You may base your list on best/favorites Horror film of each year from 1960-1979 or however it works for you. To me best/favorites go hand in hand for the most part. It doesn't matter how bad the film may be perceived by everyone else this is your opinion only so dont be afraid to list what you feel you want to list!

2. Please do not make multiple list. I know as u see films people want to update their list and create a whole new list but that will make it to hard to tally the points. So when u want to add a new film to your list or just simply change your list just edit your original list. U can edit your list all the way up to the deadline.

3. Do NOT put more than 2 films for each year or any year. Put only one or two films for each year, or I won't count your list. Also we need atleast a minimum of 30 entries or I will not tally and do the results. It would not be worth it and to get true results we need the community as a whole to participate. Especially us big horror fans.

4. Since this is for fun and discussing films should be fun, be respectful of each other. If somebody has a film you think sucks, who cares? The point of the thread is to find out what the community as a whole thinks is the top Horror film from each year from 1960-1979.

5. Deadline: haven't decided on a deadline yet, I figured I'd see if there was enough interest first and feel it out from there. at least a month.
