Movies Out of these horror films - Which are the 3 best? (First Semi-Finals)

[Long Dark Blues]

1.) The Thing
2.) The Shining
3.) Poltergeist

 

[MLarson]

1. Alien
2. The Shining
3. The Thing

 

[Excelsior]

Oh man. Getting down to the nitty-gritty.

 

[Jesus H. Sherdog]

The Thing is my favorite; great combination of suspense and horror. It holds my attention throughout and has a great ending.

The Shining kind of elevated horror with a more artistic take and is a classic haunted place story. Great performances too.

Halloween is the greatest slasher film and really got the genre growing spawning tons of copycats. Michael Myers is an iconic character.

It’s gotten tough to narrow it down now, leaving out classic and influential movies like Alien (maybe too sci-fi), The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, Poltergeist, and Psycho doesn’t feel great.

I feel your pain

The Fly is such a great movie! Jeff Goldblum and his Proto-Plasma rant. Magically good.

 

[heloder]

Alien
The Thing
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
The Shining
Halloween

These are my personal top 5, in that order. It's gonna be hard to pick a #1 if Alien and The Thing make it.

 

[BB in Crazy!!!!]

Since I couldn’t possibly narrow down the best movie to 3. I picked what I thought were the 3 scariest.

 

[Kryptt]

Alien / The Thing (1982) / The Shining

 

[tank666]

Alien / The Thing (1982) / The Shining

You're gif game is 1st class.

 

[Starman]

Alien
Halloween
Psycho

Alien and Halloween are locks. Anyone who doesn’t include those two on their list should be broken on the wheel.

 

[TheNinja]

I'll admit. I have never seen Halloween.

 

[Blue_Ribbon]

Brutal bracket.

Alien
The thing.

Im fine with either winning, although I think Alien is the better film by just a little bit.
