    Ive not seen either

    Too late but Psycho is a museum piece. It's important, like the first car was important. But I wouldn't drive one to work. Amytiville 2 scared the **** out of me and I'm willing to give it's big brother the benefit the doubt!

    Green Room. Great thriller / horror. Great performance by Patrick Stewart in a change from type. And Anton Yelchin :(

    Both great movies. Very tough choice this.

    Going the green room as its the movie I'd watch multiple times.

    Want another one whilst we're waiting for some votes on this one?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    sure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,697 ✭✭✭Mehaffey1


    Never seen either but in for the next rounds.

    Best thing about these competitions is getting introduced to new movies that are worth watching, can never stand watching dung!

    Same. Its apparently like Bird Box but way better.

    I've seen Silent Hill, but I can't vote for it in good faith.

    I'll go for a quiet place. It wouldn't be up with my favourite movies but some decent suspenseful moments.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 515 ✭✭✭Kamu


    A Quiet Place, though I thought the Hollywood ending diminished the impact for me.

    Haven't seen either Green Room or Hereditary, but this thread is giving me plenty of choices.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,404 ✭✭✭✭sKeith


    Silent hill games were great, think i watched the movie, but don't feel a lasting impression from it, but i don't have a lasting impression from a quiet place either and dont even remember if i watched it and its a 2018, so under those criteria, silent hill would be the winner, for not leaving me with a lasting impression that beats the other one by 12 years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,730 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Neither should be anywhere near this contest imo, sorry Rikki

    But having seen the quiet place most recently, I will go with that. Its just ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,697 ✭✭✭Mehaffey1


    Another vote for A Quiet Place here.

    Was worth watching but not a classic in my opinion.

    Found Silent Hill to be very poor and can't remember much about it.

    In horrors older is always better as a general rule

    4-1 to A Quiet Place so far.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 58,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    I'll give it till 2.30pm then call both matches if no further votes by then.

    We've a long way to go yet folks, don't go too far :D

    Ok matches called.

    Green Room wins 2-0 against Hereditary

    Silent Hill gets... even more silenced?? by A Quiet Place, 4-1 the scoreline.


    Interesting match coming next...

    the saw, for being a clever movie, but the cube 1997 would be better than both of them.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Oh, The Descent. I couldn't finish watching Saw, but The Descent was great. Scary in two ways - the setting and the enemies.


  • Posts: 14,734 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    None of my pucks so far then 2 together sigh


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,730 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    Saw wins for me, one of those movies you always remember. Nice twisty ending. Too many sequels though.

    Have seen the decent but cant really remember it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,808 ✭✭✭Man Vs ManUre


    The Texas Chainsaw Masaccre, original version is the greatest horror movie ever made. End of.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam

    That's not how we decide.

    3 of mine picked so far. Be surprised if another doesn't make it. Be VERY surprised if fifth makes it.
