I'll remove my negative vote for Dawn of the Dead and move it to Hostel. While I agree the film's premise was unique, it was lacking in most other places for me. It seemed like more of a ripoff of Psycho and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre than anything. And the acting was not really that great either. Final Destination is a superior films in many ways, in my opinion. The premise was really unique and well-executed. The acting was not Academy Award material, but it was not bad either, in my opinion. As for formulaic, that was the kind of the point. It was intended to be a different kind of slasher. I think there is a lot more to it than many here have assumed. Anyway, in my opinion, it is far more deserving to be on this list than Hostel, which is why I will negative vote Hostel. I respect everyone's opinions, but simply strongly disagree. Other than that, the Honorable Mentions section is fine with me.
