The Twilight series. It's horrific what they show on the screen.

Hmm this is difficult!

I love Freddy Krueger, the 1st Nightmare was awesome, and some of the follow ups were decent, although part 6 was total garbage! I did like Wes Craven's Nightmare though.

Friday the 13th is cool aswell, although I haven't seen all of them..

So far I've seen all 3 Final Destination parts, except for part 4. Part 1 one was really cool, I didn't care much for 2 and 3.

Now the SAW series are awesome, I can't get enough of them, but I didn't really like part 5! Although I really liked part 1-4.

So I guess my vote goes to the SAW series.

Halloween and Alien are tied? I wonder how many people are aware that only the first movie in the Alien franchise is really a horror film. Not to mention the later Halloween movies are more comedic than terrifying.

Make sure u weigh all the films in the series before u choose the best one. Let the great ones weigh in with the weak ones in the series then come up with a decision. Also list the worst franchise listed and even a couple of your favorites also. For me its easy:

Best: Friday the 13th Franchise

Favorites: Halloween & Phantasm Franchises

Cant point a worst but I didnt care to much for "A Nightmare on Elm Street" Got Em!!

thats a Toughie!!!

umm...

Friday the 13th series

Favorites. The Blair Witch project
Alien&Aliens,with a side of Alien 3. Childs Play, Children of The Corn, Leprechaun, Friday the 13th, FT13thP2, Jason Goes To hell The Final Friday.
Friday 6, and Friday 7..
Jeepers Creepers.

so many.. Hellraiser.. come on having a favorite is crazy dude..

just crazy.

Good poll CZAR. I have to admit I'm surprised that Halloween is in first place with Aliens. I am happy though.

I'm glad the Friday films are right behind it as those are great as well.

Anyway I'd say Friday the 13th.
As silly as it all got towards the end it kept it's feel throughout the seires.

CZAR · 02-03-2010, 03:41 PM

Close votes between Alien, Friday the 13th, and Halloween! Got Em!!

Rob71 · 02-03-2010, 04:22 PM

While I like individual films in all the listed franchises, my favorite has to be The Evil Dead series. Phantasm is a good story if a bit trippy. And I loved Pumpkinhead, as you can see.

Now that I've seen films from all 4 major franchises -
1. Friday the 13th
2. Texas Chainsaw Massacre
3. Halloween
4. Nightmare on Elm Street

In my opinion, All these series have stinkers. All but Aliens. I can actually say I thoroughly enjoyed each one of the Alien films. Can't say that about the rest. Close second is Resident Alien. I can watch all the movies in both the series over and over and I wouldn't get bored with the. And I'd actually pick the Subspecies series over the rest on this pole.
