Thanks for that link, Morbs. Solid list, comprised mostly of stuff I've seen (for a change) and stuff I've never heard of. Glad to see Incredible Shrinking Man place so high; Day the Earth Stood Still is (challops) overrated.

I've been thinking for a while of filling the '50s gaps in the year-by-year horror polls with sci-fi/horror hybrids (given that horror kinda took an extended smoke break that decade). It's an era I'm mildly obsessed with but I don't know if anyone else really GAF.

the ILX poll would replicate 80-90% of the Slant list, hence let's not bother

As much as I usually like polls, I agree.

thanks for recommending, Morbs! some good parts, especially the opening's official government 1962-2012 historyfilm.

Slant list downplays 70's dystopias and there's way too much blockbuster fluff in it, but enough surprises / unknown placements to shut me up. Happy On The Silver Globe placed high.
