It helps if you can spare some time and read the thread from the beginning, or at least from 2-3 pages back to have a better idea about it.(esp if you are new) You can check out the matchups and how the voting is going so far, and you can vote for your choice.:)
We are in the pre-quarters now, and first one to 7 votes will win and advance to the quarter-finals. Feel free to vote for your choice of the two flicks in the matchup.

Ah, man. Return of the Living Dead, Cemetery Man. Return of the Living Dead, Cemetery Man. Return of the Living Dead, Cemetery Man. I can't decide. (Thinks about making some coffee.) Hmmmm.
Well, you KNOW, if I judge this strictly on the basis of how many times I've seen each one, I would have to say Return of the Living Dead. Cemetery Man was really good, and unique, but for some reason I never went back to it after seeing it that first time. ROTLD, on the other hand, I have seen quite a few times. And I even liked the lame-o sequel, the first one.

You never cease to amaze me with all the awesome movies you seem to have not seen yet. You have a lot of excellent films to look forward to. Im sort of jealous. I have to go seek out new awesomeness and it's hard when you've seen most of the stuff thats out there.... but you.... You still have Fight Club, Kalifornia, Army of freackin Darkness ande I'm sure many, many more. You just saw Tombstone for petes sake. lol

I just dont think of Evil Dead as a zombie film. (Not that I really think of Pet Semetary as one either really, but after some thought I had to give it the edge.)
P.S. The Serpent & The Rainbow wasn't in this tourney, was it?

(I just dont think of Evil Dead as a zombie film. (Not that I really think of Pet Semetary as one either really, but after some thought I had to give it the edge.)
Technically, the "walking dead" and "coming back from dead" are included in this category, hence ED, ED2 & Pet Sematary are in this tourney (but not Demons series, 28 Days Later etc.)
P.S. The Serpent & The Rainbow wasn't in this tourney, was it?
I had shortlisted it, but I dont think many have seen the movie, so I went for the more popular and finalised the list of 32.
Evil Dead leads 6-4 over Pet Sematary!
Next vote in favor will seal the win...or can Pet Sematary make a comeback?

Ah snubbed! I bet you'd be surprised how many people here have seen that magnificent piece of work. It is Craven after all...
No biggie though. Those aren't the traditional zombies either.

That was the reason why I didnt include Demons and 28 Days Later. But ED and ED2 are basically included in the demons-possessed category also. I referred to a lot of sources for ED and ED2, and found them shortlisted in every zombie movie list I read, ergo they are in the tourney.
And the Serpent and the Rainbow is an awesome movie. If it was in the tourney and many have seen it, then it would have gone to the semi finals at least I bet...glaring omission by me then. Maybe in the next zombie tourney.:D
Evil Dead still leads 6-4 over Pet Sematary...

In both films the dead rise due to possession, so I think the edge should be given to the better film which is Evil Dead.

We now proceed into the last 8 of the tourney, which are some of the most immensely popular movies of all time. The selection is going to be harder, because the line-up is a real dazzler.
We got 2 Raimi flicks, Romero's steam-roller and its remake, Fulci's cult classic, Jackson's horrific goriest offering, and the two most funniest spoofs based on the zombie genre.
From now it will be a steep climb to get into the semi-finals. So, onto the Round of 8!!

I was going to say Zombie because I considered ED2 to be more of a demonic possession type movie but after reading scouse mac's post I gotta say Evil Dead 2. It is the better movie IMO.
