With Derrickson being so intimately involved with this, isn't this a Ted Baehr-ish thing to do? Wouldn't his very participation automatically rule this out?

I'd rather see Carnival of Souls nominated. And Cronenberg's Scanners, if only for the first five minutes.

I would have nominated it and Requiem together whether he is participating or not.

I thought I'd just watch this from afar, but I want to put in a somewhat controversial proposal for inclusion. We'll see if it garners a second.

Is this the place to discuss how we are defining "Horror"? (I know there has been some discussion elsewhere about Thriller/Horror; will that discussion continue here or can we link to it?)

If films like Vertigo are going to get seconded, I guess it's all going to have to come down to the vote. I will only give Vertigo a ONE on a horror vote.

Yeah, me too. And VERTIGO is my favorite film of all time.

I haven't seen them, unfortunately. Is THE TENANT that easy to get ahold of?

Oh, you simply must remedy this. These flicks are dynamite. (Stef will tell you otherwise, but he's crazy.)

Netflix carries it, I believe, and used copies can be purchased for fairly affordable sums.

[yank_eh]

I didn't really participate in the Top 100 this year so I'm unfamiliar with the rules. Can someone start a thread with the rules? I tried digging around, to no avail. With this being a 2011 list, are 2009 films allowed? If so, I nominate:

There's the rub. Canadian Netflix is still extremely anemic. Ah well, I'll find a way.

Greg's opening post indicates we're using the same rules as for the 2011 Top 100, which would mean anything from 2008 onwards after Dec. 31, 2008 is ineligible. Full rules here.

Thanks for the link NWD. The cut off date is a shame methinks, but I'm sure that's been much debated already.

I'm ready to give them another try soon. Even if I change my mind, though, it won't make me any less crazy.

I thought about this but didn't think I'd find any support for it.

Huh, Now I'm not sure we can nominate Antichrist. We'll have to look closely at that date... I wonder if the festival circuit can save it?
