Psycho. Obviously.
I cannot in good faith vote for either....
Voted Psycho
When I saw the what the semi-final choices were, I thought for sure it would be The Shining Vs. The Exorcist, boy was I wrong! Voting for Psycho
Psycho!
sk
I clicked one of the little circles and realized that it was for Alien. Whew. Voted Psycho.
The Exorcist should really be here, but in lieu of that, Psycho. Also a tremendous film.
getting closer...
Interesting final. I'm not surprised by Alien. I've always thought the people of this community really love the Alien franchise. Myself included.
So, no one finds it odd that "The Best Horror Film" contest comes down to a "Sci-Fi" movie and the first "Slasher" flick? Both are fine films, but really for this category? I guess my mind has been officially blown!!

Bring back life form. Priority One. All other priorities rescinded.
John Carpenter's The Thing has a strange alien life form, a spaceship, a remote location, and folks getting picked off one by one, and most folks would consider that primarily horror (with elements of sci-fi). Why can't Alien (which shares all those same elements) be considered similarly?
still tied
bears are beyond surprised
I'm still anticipating about 6 more votes or so...
SIX MORE VOTES FOR ALIEN THAT IS
One of the best scenes in all of film (perfect acting, dialogue, cinematography, everything):

What? :mad1:
Tied at 10!
I feel like if I'm watching a World Cup match :lol:
Psycho leading
thump, thump
thump, thump
I'm thinking that for the sci-fi tournament, I'll make a questionnaire for the knockout stages so we can get some discussion going. The thread gets plenty of votes but not everyone participates in the discussion.
Voted for Psycho. Alien was good, but for best horror film, I think it's gotta be Psycho over Alien.
