Since I'm confident it will be Horror or Personal Charm - great idea, Bondo - I'm in this month.

I really hope it's not horror. There are about 10 good horror films ever made imo. :(

Off the top of my head.
Halloween, The Thing, Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Trick'r'Treat, Evil Dead, The Mist, Thirst, Let The Right One I, Scream, Scream 2, Alien, The Shining, Psycho, The Exorcist

Is that more than ten?

Just my opinion. I think horror is the genre with the most garbage and the least great films. There are some but they are rare.

P.S. Psycho, The Mist, Scream and Let the Right One In are horror?

BTW guys we don't have to go with films like Freddy VS Jason for the horror category. We can use the Kempenaar definition and dictate The African Queen.  :P
Just kidding, but there are a lot of good choices in the horror genre.

Think outside the box. Anything with vampires, werewolves, monsters or creatures could fit in to this category. Stuff Like Rosemary's Baby and the Birds work as well. Even Drag me to Hell, Dead Alive or Re-Animator. The films don't need to be scary.

I'm pretty sure that's the November theme. I'm certainly voting for it ;D

Could the 3 people who didn't vote for horror or personal charm change their votes to one of those two, so the theme can be decided.  I need to start putting together of list of people who are definitely in for this next month.
