I've never been drawn to the Romero zombie films. I just don't like how goofy and slow the zombies are. Again, my main gripe with most horror comedies, it's not funny enough to make me laugh and not scary enough to impact me.

- the scene where Ripley and Newt are trapped in the room with the facehugger. (this scene alone might make the dictionary as an example of the definition of horror). - Ripley's chest burst dream - The Alien with Newt in the water. - Dormant aliens coming out of the walls. - when they discover...

Wow, very much my thing. Will be watching soon.

The reranking will not eliminate any movies that have already been submitted. It's the opportunity for you all to re-rank based on new movies seen, movies you forgot about, etc. and the list will be finalized. There will be a separate exercise where I will take out the top questionable...

For Aliens, it's probably 5-6 pivotal scenes from the movie that are pure horror. I mean, that's pretty significant and more than enough to categorize it as horror. I don't think we disagree that it's probably more action than horror, but that's not the point. There's more than enough horror...

I feel like Aliens is not the same as T2 or Predator. I get the beef with the other two. It's very subjective. But with Aliens I don't see it like that. I think it leans much more horror than T2 or Predator. It's set in an established horror universe with established horror "creatures"...

Yeah, that's fine. I just think the video store standpoint is a little limiting because it means a movie can only be one genre, which just isn't the case. I think for Alien/Aliens, Alien is a horror movie in a sci-fi setting, Aliens is an Action/Sci-Fi in a horror setting. Both are sci-fi...

Also I don't know how Aliens fell off my list, but I'm going to fix that for the adjustment round.

Sorry but this take doesn't make sense to me. Just because there's guns, it doesn't take away the tension that is present, the monsters are still there (there's even more of them!) and like I said, it has body horror elements galore just like the first one. Scenes that make it horror...

Aliens is at the very least as much a body horror film as it is an action film.

This deserves a bump. This sort of high level look at NFL teams and all of the factors that influence fantasy production is invaluable and sort of gets lost in all the individual player threads.

My Mt. Rushmore is probably Blair Witch Project - Hasn't aged well, many subsequent movies did it better but you can't deny this movie catapulted the subgenre into the mainstream. Taking of Deborah Logan - Just an example of a near perfect found footage movie. [REC] - Ditto Paranormal Activity...

Serious question. How do you diagnose it as COVID early these days with the home tests not really being accurate until a few days into the infection? Have your doctor do a rapid test as soon as you get sick?

This is another one to shoot to the top of your watchlists if you havent seen it. This movie is on many fans' found footage Mt. Rushmore, myself included. Outside of the found footage element, it's a great zombie movie on it's own. And the last 5-10 minutes make it one of the scariest endings...
