I'd say to maybe judge it based on the number of responses coming in? I dunno, since it is a shorter time period to get a list ready, it's possible less people may submit, but also possible since it's a fairly accessible poll it won't really matter.

We could do the 30s through November and December. The idea for a Valentine's Day rom-com list makes perfect sense if we're doing horror for Halloween. It seems nothing is the unanimous choice but this seems fair and sensible. |
Yeah, that sounds all good  It's all at a reasonable pace. I'll have to see my future schedule, but it all looks good as of now.

The more the better for sure. A top 50 horror films list is less likely to have any interesting films I haven't seen... On the flip side there's little chance I could make 100 romantic comedies but that's where the power of user recommendations comes in handy.
I've always found it interesting how so many people are turned off by horror films. Sure, as a whole it doesn't have near as many 5-star films as nearly any other major genre (it's like the metal of movies; dark, appalling to many kinds of people, multiple defined subgenres). I suppose I understand in some ways. However I feel like there are at least a couple dozen horror films that pretty much anybody should enjoy.

Possibly. Will get back to you on that when I post the thread. |
It is a kind of interesting question, it's not tagged as horror on IMDb but things that are horror and would count for this list as is include Vampire's Kiss and Hellboy. Other ones that aren't tagged horror but an argument could be made are things like Monster House, Pan's Labyrinth, Shutter Island, The Sixth Sense, Aliens, Jaws, Super 8. I wouldn't have a number of those on my list personally but to have a horror list without at least allowing Jaws feels wrong

We'll discuss what is and isn't allowed in the thread
As usual though, if a film isn't constituted as eligible, it doesn't usually get enough votes to make the list anyway.
