It's Pollin' Time: 20s-30s Horror Edition
Added 2024-09-06 16:44:30 +0000 UTCWell, it's been a while since I put out a poll, hey? And today you get three of them! They will all be multiple choice, so you can pick more than one option.
I'm not going to be filling all of October with on-theme reactions, but I do want to watch a few more horror movies! There are three polls because I'm splitting them up by time period. I have a few horror films that won't be in the polls because they're on my list to watch.
This poll will close in one week from today.
Happy Voting!

Thanks! I was looking a little earlier today and saw some pretty old stuff on Amazon Prime, so that might be the best bet for me. And I don't deny any of that, that's for sure. But those old movies aren't scary. I expect my horror to at least creep me out a little. At that, those old movies fail. I haven't seen a single horror movie made before 1980 that gave me so much as a shiver (to be fair, a lot of newer ones fail at that too. Good Horror is hard to find). Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that those old horror movies aren't great stories, and I know they did their best for the technology of their time. I just think the older "horror" movies should be reclassified as Drama or something else. They tell wonderful stories, but they aren't what I would call horror. 'Course, that's just my opinion.

2024-09-08 03:19:58 +0000 UTCIf you're in the US, Vudu/Fandango at Home. Otherwise, the Universal Monsters Collection on Amazon. Probably Prime too. Old doesn't mean extinct. Nosferatu and 1931's Dracula are still to this day some of the most beautiful horror films ever made and are so much more important and immersive than today's jumpscare, slasher, gore fests.
