    Ok, calling both now.

    Scream and The Lost Boys advance to the quarter finals.

    Gonna say The Shining being knocked out is quite the upset.

    Twas the number 1 seed in terms of nominations too.

    How dare you assume the genderised diminutive of their fathers. Ma is the more acceptable default, because everyone knows if a lady sneezes three times in a row her fanny turns inside out and that's where boys come from.

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


    Pass on the first one.

    The Thing for the second one please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 653 ✭✭✭Gonad


    The Shining is amazing . The Here’s Johnny part was taken from the intro from the Johnny Carson show . But the Shining was actually set 20 years before the Carson show :)

    A quiet place. Haven't seen it but the trailer scared me more than RinguSA. Also, Emily Blunt.

    The Thing. Visionary effects. That spider head still haunts my house. I mean dreams. It was definitely a dream....?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 1,442 ✭✭✭Choc Chip


    The ring. Even the nail in the DVD credits terrifies me.

    The thing. Cold doggy shape shifters for the win.

    Really? Was it set in the past? I thought it was set in contemporary times.

    Because it's a good movie, and Poltergeist never appealed.

    Poltergeist 2 some of the scariest freakiest **** you will watch. As a young one at least :)

    Ring for me havent seen the original but i liked it, i watched it with my family furst time a frw of them had seen it, i was sat on the floor and just at the pivotal moment in the film the bro in law grabbed my shoulder and roared i nearly died the bastard

    The Ring , it's just creepy , dark , and unsettling .

    Poltergeist II ,
    Reverend Kane was one chilling , creepyass nightmare inducing character .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    The ring was more frightning imo, so gets my vote.

    The thing get my vote also.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,216 ✭✭✭khalessi


    The Ring although I love A Quiet Place

    The Thing


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,149 ✭✭✭Tammy!


    I'll go with The Ring. Haven't seen any of the others though.

    Half marks Kol, khaleesi.

    Can you give me brief reasoning for your Thing votes please :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,220 ✭✭✭Jurgen The German


    Sorry to butt in but as a massive horror fan the lack of some bona fide classics like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween (78) and A Nightmare On Elm Street hurts me in my blackened heart. :(

    I was surprised too, I had no nominations for Texas Chainsaw and only one apiece for Halloween and Nightmare.

    They should be there imo, but with the rules I'm running they didn't make it:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,632 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    The ring - proper freaked .e out when I first saw it

    Poltergeist 2, not as good as the first one for me but love Kane as a bad guy

    And weekend competitions suck! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    The thing because it stars kurt russel. He also stars in big trouble in little china, a classic of the 80's.


    But seriously, I just the setting in the thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,466 ✭✭✭✭TheValeyard


    I vote, The Thing.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,216 ✭✭✭khalessi


    The Thing is a classic and hasnt aged and it has Kurt Russell, it also builds a nice tense atmosphere

    The Ring is scary and has great effects


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 56,633 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Vale and Rikand... :(

    Thanks for all the votes but tumblr_mk2gryOgyw1rsc2xho4_500.gif
