I think Phantasm could be included in the 70's, and I certainly think that "Stir of Echoes" should be considered in the 90's as well.  

Phantasm I thought was going to be really good but honestly it sucked.   Had the porno in the start to get people interested but was honestly pretty stupid, and the entire cube thing and other universe thing was not creative, it was just really lame and tried to be unique, creative and different but failed in that.  Visually Suspiria 1977 kicks it butt creatively, sure the story is also a little weak but visually it is way more creative and artistic than freaking Phantasm.

I should of voted for hereditary

I did not like IT as a horror film at all

I agree IT the movie was nothing great, and should not win the genre for this time period because it is a freaking remake of an earlier film.  Got a ton of ideas from the original, but not sure it improved that much off the original other than made it a little shorter and more condensed.  Too many jerky camera type scares in IT to be considered really good I think and if it wins this that would be a shame.

it was?

 

I guess TV mini series but is shown as a film now a days on TV.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099864/

 

Tim Curry is the superior Pennywise though, more scary I thought.

Kind of like Storm of the Century, Rose Red etc from Stephen King. Long Mini-series type events but I would still call Storm of the Century a movie in a way.

as someone who waited for it and watched it with bated breath 30 years ago....  there's no "guess" about it .

 

A movie made for TV and a movie in the theater is still a movie either way.  Just one is longer and more drawn out than the other, still was made, same subject matter and same story and a better villain character in one I feel.  Not like IT was a long running TV show on TV for 10 years in a row or something with multiple seasons.

there can be literally no comparing the 2.

 

they are made with different pacing constraints, different content constraints (you REALLY couldn't say or show much on TV in 1990), and different budgets, and show kids (and adults) existing in different times/eras.

True, but the "TV Mini-series" that is 3 hours and 12 minutes, tons of films are over that amount of time.  It did have constraints no doubt but it did more with those constraints than the most recent version would have.  Better villain that is for sure that is not reliant on a jerky camera to create tension and fright.

Regardless it has been done before and IT 2017 movie version took and used subject matter that has already been put on film and went into, so it was remade to me.  That should not win just on that issue alone but looks like it will anyway.

I'm not really a fan of the IT movie (as far as winning a bracket goes, it was fine for what it is)....

 

but some of the very best films ever made are remakes.  I can't rule out remakes on principle.

Very true but when the remade material is not that much better than the older it can be an issue.  Sure The Dark Knight is better than older Batman movies.  When they remade The Shining for TV, I would call the 2nd one the remake of the movie, and that was also a TV Mini series but was pretty well done by the guy from Wings Steven Weber.

Agree it does not always rule out everything for remade material but in this case, it is close call so I would give the nod to an original movie without remade material.  Regardless a 20 vote sample size is not very reflective of anything...

 

I was also not a huge fan of IT 2017, pretty over hyped scares I feel but the kid actors were pretty solid but really that is only because they were funny and realistic.  I just think the old Tim Curry Pennywise wins comparing the two and did much more with less.

I really don't want to see It represent the 2010's.  I will campaign hard against It winning.  Let it take the top spot in the brackets, let it get far, but it was not the best horror movie of the decade. 

Yeah, I regret my vote. It's the best I've seen and I enjoyed it so I voted for it...never thinking it'd actually take the top spot.
