October 4, 201015 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 3, 2010 -> 06:26 PM) VOTE EVERYONE - SHOULD I CHANGE IT TO ONLY HORROR MOVIES? FIVE YES VOTES AND I WILL CHANGE IT. Yes, with the caveat that I would define horror broadly to include movies like Alien and Jaws. Let people decide what their definition of horror is and if other people don't agree that movie won't show up. No big deal.

October 4, 201015 yr Author Alright. I changed it. If you can't think of 15 horror movies that you like, at least pick 10.
October 4, 201015 yr QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 4, 2010 -> 10:20 AM) I wholeheartedly endorse the horror-only refinement of the list! Ditto!
October 5, 201015 yr I agree with the change to just horror films. I'll make a list, but I honestly don't even like horror movies. It'll probably be tough to make the list.
October 5, 201015 yr Author Crap. I had 37 on my first list and had to pare it down. I only have about 5 lists right now, and one of them is from before we narrowed focus to just horror. I would really appreciate it if I could get a few more before the end of the week.
October 5, 201015 yr I have a list of about 50 that I'm trying to cut in half. My list has a lot of silent, Universal, Hammer, etc. that are classic cinema but wouldn't make lists based on "scarriness" per se. I also really really want to include a couple of made for teevee classics like Salem's Lot and the Karen Black Trilogy of Terror anthology, despite knightni's rules excluding such. Growing up those two titles scared the hell out of me.

October 5, 201015 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 5, 2010 -> 02:02 PM) Yes, I got yours, Milk. I think that GoSox turned one in... Can you keep a running tab of who submitted a list in the OP?

October 6, 201015 yr QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 5, 2010 -> 02:06 PM) Kool Beanz! Except now I have a list of 52 films to whittle down. If your list doesn't include "The Stuff," I don't think I know who you are anymore.
October 6, 201015 yr QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Oct 6, 2010 -> 10:50 AM) If your list doesn't include "The Stuff," I don't think I know who you are anymore. Hard to believe neither The Stuff nor C.H.U.D made my top 50.
October 6, 201015 yr If anyone voted Blair Witch or Paranormal Activity I may consider putting them on ignore.
October 6, 201015 yr QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 6, 2010 -> 10:54 AM) If anyone voted Blair Witch or Paranormal Activity I may consider putting them on ignore. I've never even seen Paranormal Activity, but I came kind of close to adding The Blair Witch Project. That was only because I'm not a big horror fan, so I was scratching the bottom of the barrel to come up with a list of 25. I was just adding horror movies that I had seen and remembered towards the end. I decided against adding it only because I remember how disappointed I was in it.
