Battle of the Horror Films Round 18

[Napster]

Alien (TrueBlue)

versus

Nightmare on Elm Street (brad the shrimper)

Two long-running characters here - but which original film is best?

 

[MK Shrimper]

Alien without a shadow of a doubt. Not just a brilliant horror film, but a brilliant film per se. Not something that can be said of ol' stripey jumper.

Steak meal?

 

[canveyshrimper]

Alien for me too.

 

[Kent Shrimper]

Isnt Alien a Sci Fi film, so not actually a Horror?

Freddy K for me

Freddy K for me

Irrelevant where it's set surely? If it's a scary film - it's a horror IMHO. I can see your argument for AlienS not being a horror but replace scary monster on spaceship with man with knife, you've got your archetypal horror film.

 

[SouthendersTrueFaith]

Freddy K - all the way for me as well.
The original movie was amazing oh and so was the nurse in Nightmare 3

 

[Bluesmanager]

Alien. Never seen it in full but Claw-Guy just doesn't cut it with me.

**Bumpy** thingy.

 

[Napster]

To the mods corner for adjudication...

 

[MK Shrimper]

Cmon mods, Alien! Alien! Alien!

 

[Cricko]

Cmon mods, Alien! Alien! Alien!

Been there done it Paul.

 

[Napster]

Alien wins...

 

[MK Shrimper]

Yay! I've always said the mods did a sterling job on this website :)

They'd still get battered by the rockers though ;)
