1983

[Hellbilly]

1983 was on "ok" year for horror flicks, not the best year but there were a few good ones.

[rhett]

The Dead Zone all the way. Extremely well made and well acted, this is one of my favorite flicks.

HOUSE ON SORRORITY ROW
:rolleyes: :)

[DefJeff]

i picked Christine, i love this movie. i wish a better dvd of it would come out... A Blade in the Dark was a close 2nd

HOUSE ON SORRORITY ROW
haha rhett. 1981 is coming up very soon. :D :p ;)

[STREET TRASH]

Quite a few good ones there. SLEEPAWAY CAMP gets my vote, though.

[Cujo108]

I voted for Cujo (guess that's obvious). I absolutely love this classic, and wish a DVD that is actually fucking good and in OAR would come out! 2nd place goes to Dead Zone.

[Agent Z]

Hmmmm....Which film to choose? Oh so many good films...........Oh, I remember which film to pick!....I knew I wouldn't forget! I just kept reminding myself! In fact, I tied a string around............AROUND my finger so I wouldn't forget! See? And I didn't! You never can be too careful........

[thrashard76]

It's more akin to Maximum Overdrive than pure horror but Christine is a great film to just watch and have fun with. Its not a gore fest but it does entertain me especially with "Bad To The Bone" by George Thorogood playing as the movie's theme.

[STREET TRASH]

Lmfao @ MISSIONCODEZ!

[Hellbilly]

LOL CODEZ.
You should have a personal pic of Aunt Martha instead of Felissa. ;)

[Mark Relford]

Dead Zone gets my vote. It's the best King adaptation and a departure for Cronenberg. As always, Walken gives a fantastic performance. It's a shame that Paramount didn't go the SE route with this one. Of Unknown Origin would be my second choice.

[Agent Z]

Nah.....Desiree Gould is pretty cool, but Felissa rules.......:)

[Andrew]

"Felissa" look like a long-haired Ben Stiller, if you ask me :p :D.

Voted for Christine too, love that flick :D.

A really, really, really bad Ben Stiller.;)

[STREET TRASH]

I really don't think young Felissa Rose is that ugly. You should see her now, she's a freakin babe!

[Andrew]

I'm sure, but every time I look at that picture I think of Ben Stiller in the beginning of There's Something About Mary hiding his braces with his mouth closed :D.

Dammit Andy, I guess your right.
I've never notice before. :D

[Omen]

My pick was Christine. Some others I liked:

Sleepaway Camp
Twilight Zone: The Movie
Cujo

[EPKJ]

I voted for A Blade In The Dark. Dead Zone and Christine are close, however, this was a bad year.

[bwana the clown]

Not a lot to pick from here. It's not one of my favourite Cronenberg movies (when the hell is 'The Brood' coming out?), but 'Dead Zone' easily gets my vote.

[John]

While this list is not as deep as 1982's, the top choices are really good. Christine gets my vote, just beating out Dead Zone and Cujo.

[DVD Connoisseur]

...Xtro.

Low budget British movie with more than its fair share of weirdness. And Maryam d'Abo!:p

[Peter Vincent]

Me, the only one who voted for "One Dark Night", voted for it because it holds a special place in my heart!

U know that movie that U remember just having a good time going to see? Well, that was this flick for me, not once, but twice. And since I was only 9 years old, it scared me like a muhhf*cka!

[Hellbilly]

True that Peter. ONE DARK NIGHT is also a childhood fave of mine. Will we ever see it on DVD??????????????

[swamptours]

Went with Christine. Not a lot of great movies to pick from.

[Pope V]

Had to go with The Hunger - it gets bonus points for the Bauhaus sequence.

[Yowie]

I think De Palma's "Scarface" is more violent than many of the horror films of '83. Anyway, my vote goes to "The Dead Zone", I still think it's Walken's best. "Psycho 2" was good too, and I even liked "Jaws 3". -Let's have those widescreen DVDs, Universal !.

[Jamm]

Christ, another poll that I voted on and I cannot remember when or what for!!! Again, looking through the lists, I probably would've voted for Christine.

[KillerCannabis]

Sleepaway Camp. That goddamn ending still creeps the shit out of me everytime I watch it.

[moogong]

SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES...

One of my childhood favorites. Jason Rubards rules the school yards!!!

[evilgreek]

PSYCHO II, I adore Norman Bates. This movie is sadly underrated..

[DVD-fanatic-9]

Out of this list, The Hunger. With Psycho 2 and Sleepaway Camp close behind.

[WesReviews]

This was a tough call. A very good year, overall, and my impulse choice went to Christine... but after a little thought, I went with Curtains. A highly underrated slasher.
