however, i may give Friday, part 2 a netflix rent, as i haven't seen it in YEARS! who knows? maybe i'll get into it.

Halloween I can somewhat understand as u could have just ended and we would all still know Michael Myers. But Friday the 13th doesnt get started until part 2. Yes part 1 is the OG and the setup for the series but if it didnt go any further than part 1 then Jason wouldnt even exist! And where would we be without the great Jason Voorhees character?? I would be lost! Hahaha! Cunningham is way off on that one man! Got Em!!

Nah I kinda wish I did though because you could always tell when something was supposed to be in 3D. It was decent, but I don't know if I'd watch it again to see it in 3D.

I have also seen The Mist which was pretty good. I haven't seen it in years though

Well the Mist has only been out a couple years so Im sure it hasnt been years since u have seen it haha! but yes man great film with a hellavu ending. Im surprised the Halloween franchise doesnt have more votes? Maybe its because of those 2 zombie crapfest films! Got Em!!

I have a feeling it's more of the great first two movies and then the "not so great" rest of them.
Personally, I like "The Season of the Witch" and the 1st Zombie remake. They are entertaining but not quite as good as the first two Carpenter ones.
I voted Friday the 13th. The first was a great slasher movie and I like most of the other ones (even Jason X).

I like Season of the Witch also. Cant stand Zombie's crap though. But good lookin on the Friday the 13th take! Got Em!!

Alien Series! Still terrifying when I watch the 1st and 2nd one.

deadhatetheliving · 01-26-2010, 04:56 PM

I'm the only one who voted for Return of the Living Dead Trilogy. I don't count those last two shitty sequels.
IMO Alien Series is not horror
Alien-Horror, Aliens-Action, Alien 3-Sci-fi, Alien:Resurrection-Sci-fi

The first ROTLD was awesome and one of greatest horror films ever to me. The 2nd was pretty good. The 3rd was decent. never seen the other 2. But it cant mess with Friday the 13th Series in my eyes. As for why I listed the Alien films is because weve had this long goin debate about whether Alien in general are horror films. And since some say it is I listed it. Maybe not all of them are but if one is considered why not put it on the poll. Got Em!!

Save for Rob Zombies two crapfest Halloween movies I voted for the Halloween Franchise. Someone said "where would we be without the great Jason Voorhees?" I say where would we be without the legendary king of the slashers Michael Myers?

Wow didnt notice the vote totals of late! Halloween made a quick splash over the last 24 hours. Wowzers. That was my 2nd choice anyway so thats cool. Got Em!!

ryan4blu · 01-27-2010, 03:40 PM

not sure how alien got in with "horror" films

more like sci-fi, but after the first one they were more like action movies than anything...

I havent and I dont know...

Alien series is a mix bag of genres, I wouldnt say the series is all horror...

I love Evil Dead series, but again its a horror/comedy series...

Halloween series is great and better than F13 series IMO.... but I have always enjoyed the Hellraiser series and story so that gets my vote...

Hills Have Eyes, 1st and remake and original sequel where excellent as well... the 2nd newer sequel was terrible though...
