    How do you participate, Carl? Sorry to sound ignorant, but do I click the 'Vote it Up' icon and type in yes, or no for these questions?

    Put me down for one of each if possible. NO for Argento, YES for Torture Porn, NO for Craven, YES for remakes and NO for pirating. That one could go either way, really, depending on whether or not said film is available at all.

    Zack, you can just email it to horrorbloggeralliance@hotmail.com when it's all said and done. No super rush, I plan on doing my half sometime this week, but I have a rippin' sinus infection and may die at some point, in that case, I may need longer!

    Hey V we can put you down for each of those immediately but I wanted to check back first and see if you wanted to grab any of the open slots first for this round to complete one or more of the pairs? We can run multiple debates on each topic, I just want to be sure to be able to find a partner for everyone but let me know!

    You can put me down for YES on the pirating entry. I can go either way on that one, but the argument is valid when it comes to niche titles. Far less so with newer films backed by big studio labels.

    Matt I hope you feel better. Cure it the way I do; drown it in whiskey. That's my own form of universal health care.

    Oducer shall be my battle cry.

    Ahhh very cool. I'll have to start writing. Glad to be paired up with Venom, who's opinions I always respect.

    I'll get going as soon as I can.

    That's very nice of you, Becky. The feeling is mutual. I am almost done with mine, I'm in the middle of cooking supper at the moment. Will send it over later this evening.

    So do I still lack a 'sparring partner' for mine? I'll get to writing it as soon as I know I have someone to go against.

  24. I Like Horror MoviesFebruary 17, 2010 at 5:32 PM

    So far it seems so, but maybe Johnny, Venoms, or Jaded will take you up on it! If not I will throw down once I finish the Craven debate

    I'm gonna have to pass on the Argento debate. While I do feel he is a bit overrated based on the few films i've seen from him, I really don't feel that i've seen enough of his work to truly debate that point.
