Well as much as I am saddened by the fact we couldn't have epic Shaun v. Dawn final, IT COMES DOWN TO THESE VERY DESERVING CONTESTANTS!

You know what to do folks. Do Halloween proud.

Note: Gene & Uncle Lunchwagon, with you two being the ones who nominated those movies, please drop me a pm with the movie genre of your choice for next month and you will as well recieve a congratulatory rep with your movie having been the one to go all the way to the finals.

I don't even understand why DotD is there >.>

Shining wins for being fucked up.

Movies such as "House on the Haunted Hill" however, wins by a landslide.

Dawn of the Dead.

Maybe it's just because this is the first horror movie I remember seeing, or maybe it's because I have a zombie fetish, but to this day I'm still enthralled out by George Romero's masterpiece.

Definitely The Shining.

Out of these two, Shining wins easily.

Scariest movie of all time? Stephen Kings "IT", hands down.


btw, your options throughout the votes have been kind of weak. Shaun of the dead, is a comedy, and Silence of the Lambs, is more of a suspense movie. So many movies are scarier then your options o.O

I'm watching the Shining right now for the first time completely through it just happened to be on TV.

It's very good, but dawn of the dead scared me more, Zombies tend to have that effect on me.

Those got the most nominations. As such they went into the top 8.

Chucky is more horrifying then Silence of the Lambs... lol

In future polls, you should revise options to be a bit more serious o.O

I went for Dawn, it made more of an impression on me than Shining.

Word of the day: Krukolibidinous - the act of staring at someone's crotch

As much as I love a good zombie movie, Kubrick beats Romero. I'm a huge fan of both though.

Shining takes this. Horror isn't alwayd about brain-eating zombies, you know.

I don'tget scared when I watch Zombie movies. They're cool to look at, but they don't make my skin crawl. The Shining on the other hand. :iik

wow, dawn of the dead is a really bad movie, if any of romero's works would have been up i figured itd be night of the living dead, because it was the only one that didn't suck
shining wins hands down between these too (even though i wouldnt say its the best horror of all time - i still like the original halloween/thing/it)

Dawn of the Dead! even though The Shining is good Dawn would win. its a first round knock out! though if I where you I would rather have picked Day Of The Dead instead! ^^

Dawn of the Dead scary? You're kidding?

The Shining takes this easy.

So with 15 minutes left, I doubt Dawn will suddenly pull out a surprise 15 votes, I will call this Shining's victory.

As such, Gene (http://forums.narutofan.com/member.php?u=36061), being the winner will get a congratulatory rep + trophy for having nominated the winning movie.

As champion, he chose the Genre for next month...or rather this month's Best Movie competition to be Comedy. A new thread for nominations will be made either tonight or tomorrow. So when the time comes, nominate many movies and good ones and you may just be a winner too!

Dawn of the Dead (Original) was anything but mindless bloodshed. Go back to your crappy "The Condemned" movie, this is big people talk.

Even though I missed the poll. I go with "Shining." I've already stated why in previous threads.

It's been a while since I saw the original. I was actually talking about the remake. I need to watch the original again...

LOL, The Condemned.

I'll go for the remake of Dawn of the Dead. I love the 'holed up in a mall, with zombies outside' theme. That's why i got Dead Rising :P
