You asked for it, you got it. The Smartmarks

Nominate at the most three movies. Once about 64 movies have been nominated, I'll make them into a tournament for your voting pleasure. It's time!

 

Only two rules: make them modern horror movies only (70's and on) with a few notable exceptions (Psycho, Night of the Living Dead). Reason being, I will be making a classic horror tourney in a few weeks with about 32 movies. Like someone said before I think we have enough of an attention span to vote in more than one tourney.

 

Second is, horror movies will take precedence over thriller/suspense flicks (mostly PG-13 movies, but some exceptions will be made).

They're wrong.

 

At it's most simplistic people consider it a slasher film with jokes...

 

But Scream was more than that...it was Generation X's Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

 

It was a perfect commentary on that generation...it just used slasher films as its template.

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

I disagree, Scream is a horror movie.

 

The Others

Se7en

Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Isn't SE7EN Thriller/Mystery/Suspense?

[The Ghost of bps21 0]

Se7en isn't a horror movie either

The Others

Se7en

Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Isn't SE7EN Thriller/Mystery/Suspense?

I agree, Se7en isn't a horror film.

 

Psychological horror perhaps, but not a HORROR film.

 

If Se7en counts, I could list a TON of movies that should count.

[Mole 0]

I always thought it was a horror movie.

 

Discount that then.

 

I'll edit it now.

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

The Birds is too old, Mole.

 

 

70's and on, remember?

[Guest Retro Rob]

Psycho (original)

The Ring

Shadow of the Vampire

[Guest El Satanico]

If we get more than 64 nominations and there's votes for multiple movies from one series, you should put the movie series together as one nomination, instead of nominations for each film.

 

The Hills Have Eyes

Suspiria

Near Dark

[Youth N Asia 0]

Clownhouse

Dawn of the Dead

The Thing

 

Shadow of the Vampire really isn't that much of a horror movie.

[Mole 0]

The Birds is too old, Mole.

 

 

70's and on, remember?

Right, I fixed it again.

Relax downhome...he said a limit of three per person for now.

 

Keep these movies as backups in case we don't have enough nominations after everyone has had a chance to make a nomination.

Oh and Scream wasn't a horror movie, it was a satire on the slasher genre by Wes Craven. It did so good money-wise that it spawned two cash cow sequels, giving off the impression that it was a horror trilogy.

[Guest Mindless_Aggression]

The Howling

Dog Soldiers

Ginger Snaps.

 

I'm on a werewolf kick at the moment and it's hard pressed to get superior to those as far as that genre goes IMO.
