Battle of the Horror Films Round 6

[Napster]

the Changeling (cricko)

versus

The Hills Have Eyes (steveo)

Two interesting choices- one more psychological than the other, but both excellent films. The remake of THHE is excellent.

 

[MrB]

I suspect Cricko will have to do some serious tapping up to get this one through!

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Hmm ... i've never heard of Crickos choice, so i think i'll have to try to find some clips or else it'll be THHE for me

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

The Changeling is apparently out in cinemas in just under 3 months time.

Unless he is referring to either Leyton Orient fans wanting their manager changed or some obscure 1980 film that no-one has heard of.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Never seen either, so abstaining.

I'd also describe the Genie Awards as obscure.

Only if you're not Canadian...

 

[BrettieAngell]

[canveyshrimper]

Can this be the first whitewash?

 

[Benfleet A1]

The Hills Have Eyes was truly awful hence why I voted against. Seems I'm in a minority though.

 

[The Hall Has Eyes]

The Hills Has Eyes? What one are we voting for the original or the remake?

 

[canveyshrimper]

[AdamTheShrimper]
