Just the movies should have 6.0+, Target Earth has 5.5 It's rated by 1638 users. Would you call it a specimen for a good movie? I believe in your experience since you seem to be the oldest watcher on the board. ;)

@Breumaster, Sorry, Target Earth is not really a good movie, and should be excluded. I just remember it having the preposterous idea that the robots could be stopped because they used vacuum tubes that could be shattered with a sonic device.

Ok, I'll skip it. It's right that the movie all-in-all stands in foreground, not (only) the monster which is shown. I tried to keep in movies, the people will remember, because they left a stamp in time.

@dan_dassow: I've made an exception myself: 'It Came from Beneath the Sea' (1995) That's because it was a blockbuster at its time, even though it has only a 5.9 rating. It was one of the specimens I stated in the intro.

Yay! Changed it. It was unclear for me, if it was go- or stop-motion. I betted with myself that someone will correct me, if it's wrong. ;)

No, too late. As you can see above 1984 or earlier. I could also say 1985- ... at least 40 years old.

U would update it, ACT_1. But the poll is closed. At the moment that happens to all new polls, so it is questionable if the is useful. If the polls would get to a life status again, I would consider to put it on the list immediatelly. Thank you for suggesting anyway.
