I purchased my first two pulp/horror figures yesterday and was wanting to know about some good rules for this style o' play.  It will be in the timeframe of modern/sci fi.  Also just to show the models that i purchased here ya be.

This little lass will be the center of all that is evil within the game.

.45 Adventures has a good following that claim it's a good game. They have a set of "Demo Rules" that are free for the downloading to test the game to see if you like it.

Rugged Adventures is free and it too has a good following.

Astounding Tales 2 is my pulp rules favorite. It allows more miniatures, has a good list of Larger-Than-Life characters from the pulps, good list of adversaries & friends, good creature list, ideas to converting to different versions of pulp... horror, lost world, western, gumshoe, adventure, etc, etc, etc...

Although AT2 is my fav pulp rule set I've discovered another set of rules that has become my favorite rules of any kind. I have used them to run zombie games, post apocalyptic games, pulp games, Aliens vs Predator games, and Weird War games. And they are free too.

It name is Warlord 2085, but most of it's players affectionately call it "The Skank Rules".

I hope this helped.

PS - Us Carolina boys need to stick together.

Thanks for the links Warrenss2.  I will take a peek at em all and see what works with my sci fi/ horror/whatever tickles my fancy games.  The hard thing is just getting folks wanting to play em. 
I finally got some folks at the shop playing Zulu Wars games which is good fun and a good start into something besides WHFB or 40k.  Folks need to start broadening their horizons alittle, geesh.

I'd have a look at Malebolgia's Cosmic Horror Rules as well - he's asked people to playtest the rules and they look very promising:

Song of Fear and Faith has proved popular as well.
