I don’t watch a lot of either genre, but I do agree that nothing is “better than” The Magnificent Seven. That’s just crazy talk.

Speaking of crazy, I believe I can end this argument with the Steve McQueen method. Steve McQueen’s western: The Magnificent Seven. Steve McQueen’s horror: The Blob. Westerns are better. QED.

Kwk, I consider it a western. I don’t think a film has to take place in the 1870s through 1890′s to be a western. (I think Legends of the Fall is a western too)

MCQ, I think both Alien and The Thing would be pretty high in my list of films. I’m not sure top 10, but pretty high. But outside of those and maybe The Shining I can’t think of too many really great horror movies I like. (I don’t consider Silence of the Lambs a horror movie, as I’ve mentioned)

Contrast this with the number of westerns. There’s a lot up there. (Once again not top 10 beyond The Good the Bad and the Ugly – but a lot in say my top 50) I could easily make a list of 10 westerns I love. I don’t think I could do that with horror. And with westerns I could rattle off a lot more than 10. Admittedly subjective but judging by the poll results I suspect I’m not alone.

I sat through For A Few Dollars More over the holidays. It was worth it. I also saw The Grudge a few weeks ago. Not so worth it.
