I watching this.. and sorry if I'm being a picky wierdo.. I love Shaun of the Dead as much as the next guy.. but how can people vote for it over TCM?! Especially in a HORROR tourney??? Shaun wasn't even remotely scary or horrific.

It's as much about how many people have seen something than how good the movies are. How else to explain Phantasm over Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

 

this leaves me with the conclusion that people should definitely run out and see the original TCM.

I've seen Thing, Rosemary's Baby, Phantasm and Body Snatchers. I still voted for Thing and Phantasm.

 

Rosemary's Baby is good and all, but Thing is also a good movie and I just like it more. I would've voted for the original Body Snatchers, but not the '78 version.

Agreed. If Shaun of the Dead beats the original TCM, then people just don't know good horror these days. :(

Edited for less pissyness. ;)

Shaun is a horror/comedy and has enough elements to make it worthy of this tournament. Why aren't you complaining about Return of The Living Dead and Evil Dead II? Both are horror/comedies and both have beaten good true horror movies. Hell EDII beat Psycho, but I didn't see you complaining.

 

For the record, I've voted out Shaun, Return and EDII this round. I love all three of them and have no problem with them being in this tourney, but it's time to get rid of the horror/comedies.

I voted for Shaun over TCM because it's a better movie. You can make the arguement about it not being a horror movie, but in all fairness the only thing that scared me in TCM, a movie I love, is the intro.

I don't think the point of TCM is to necessarily be scary, but rather horriffic and disturbing.
