Haven't received anymore votes for Round 1 Group B, so I'm calling it here Bolded films move on:
Little surprised to see Get Out handily defeat Dr Jekyll 31, but besides the cool camerawork, Dr J had story and character weakness. Also a bit surprised with Candyman's victory of Hills Have Eyes 77...

1. Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
I haven't got into the Insidious series. I know I watched the first one. Perhaps reviewed it here. But I vaguely remember being disappointed by the last parts of the movie. Body Snatchers is one of those classic old school sci-fi horror movies. 2. The Autopsy of Jane Doe Very difficult choice. My favorite Evil Dead movie is Army of Darkness. And the TV show is great. The Autopsy of Jane Doe is a horror film everyone should check out going in blank. It was recommended to me by people here. I never would have watched it. 3. Halloween (1978) I love Japanese horror but I have to vote for the classic. 4. Hellraiser (1987) I'm not the biggest fan of the Texas Chainsaw series. But Hellraiser is one of those must see movies. 5. No vote I haven't seen Carnival of Souls yet but heard it's something I need to see. So I don't want to vote on this one. Especially since Army of Darkness is my favorite Evil Dead. |

Exorcist
Elm Street Get Out Psycho The Fly |
1. Impossible for me to pick.
2. Friday the 13th (1980) 3. Dawn of the Dead (1978) 4. Psycho (1960) 5. Candyman (1992) |
1. Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982)
I really need to get into the The Exorcist series. But Halloween 3 is too much of a classic for me. 2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) I'm probably one of the few that isn't crazy about the original Friday the 13th. In fact, I don't own it and prefer Part 2. That has the flashback and the beginning anyway. Elm Street actually scared me when I was a kid. It's a far better movie than Friday the 13th. 3. No Vote I still haven't seen Dawn of the Dead. And I thought Get Out was overhyped. 4. Psycho (1960) Classic Hitchcock. Although I haven't seen Eyes Without A Face but I want to soon. 5. Candyman (1992) I haven't seen Candyman in a while. I'll probably do a double feature with the original and remake. But I remember not liking The Fly that much. |
Wow, I'm really surprised about the popularity of Halloween 3. It's my personal Halloween favorite, so I can't complain.

1. Insidious (2010)
2. Evil Dead II (1987) 3. Halloween (1978) 4. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) (nice theme regarding both film’s creation) 5. The Evil Dead (1981) 1. The Exorcist (1973) 2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) 3. Dawn of the Dead (1978) (Get Out was like an over long twilight zone episode without the character development that you’d expect from the run time. Go figure.) 4. Eyes Without A Face (1959) 5. Candyman (1992) __________________ |

The popularity of a lot of these films is surprising me, like Carnival of Souls, Insidious, Autopsy of Jane Doe... that is in comparison to the films they are being compared to. I thought Carnival was cool, though I think Jacob's Ladder did the theme better. It's interesting that some of the known Evil Dead lovers are going with Carnival. I'm a James Wan fan, and enjoyed Insidious, but personally didn't find it as wrenching as Body Snatchers. I thought Jane Doe was made well, but thought it was fairly commonplace, I mean especially compared to Evil Dead II. The visceral Candyman is a good competitor to The Fly... for me, Fly was riveting nonstop entertainment, loved it. Quote:

Round 2 Group B:
1. The Exorcist (1973) 2. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) A kill your darlings nostalgia choice. I'll go with Freddy this time, but could go either way. 3. Dawn of the Dead (1978) 4. Psycho (1960) 5. The Fly Tony Todd is awesome, but I'll go with Goldblum. |
Of the newer films, I thought Get Out was both excellent and original. Not surprised it's making a good showing.[/QUOTE]
Oh, it’s original all right, and excellent, but so is the shining, and I find that intolerable too. It’s not really a snub. |
It's a good tournament, Sculpt. Both fun, interesting and enlightening.
Hope you make a sequel with all the movies in this tournament not being an option. ::wink:: |

Body Snatchers is awesome though. Old school horror. There is something about the older horror movies. Maybe because I grew up watching Twilight Zone and the Universal Monsters. |
