There are currently 3 exceptions to the IMDb rule: Black Swan, Predator and The Sixth Sense.

 

If you disagree with this, and want me to be really adamant about the rule, please let me know.

 

I'm happy for those to be allowed, does this mean I can plead a case for Silence of the lambs? :)

Me too. Its a slap in the face of Jason. How he has the audacity to hang around the forums in a Jason avatar is beyond me. Its disgraceful really. Some fan, huh?

 

Its people like him who are the reason the Friday remake dropped 80% in its 2nd weekend. What he fails to understand is that you support the movie even if it doesn't live up to your expectations. That way the series lives on, and hopefully you get a better movie the next time around.

In my top 50 horror films, Friday the 13th 3, 2,5 and 1 are all there.  3 is right on the periphery but there are a lot of horror films so to make the top 25, it's tough to put more than one in there.
