Evil Dead II is still managing to hold on to a very slender and close 9-8 lead over The Thing!!


next vote in favor of ED II will take it past the victory line...
two votes in favor of The Thing will pull it into the finals...


Who will it be? Need more votes to decide this grueling and tough Semi-Final...

Making my job more difficult eh?;) But I can see through the votes...nah nah nah...

ferretchucker & Renob voted twice...only one vote (the first one) counts, sorry...

His_Herald...ahem you redhead, your vote as Zero will be taken into account only, sorry...:p



And the final result...

Raimi & Ash's Evil Dead II scraps into the Finals by a whisker, scoring an intensely close and nail-biting 11-10 victory over John Carpenter's The Thing!!

Day of the Dead is a tour de force, Evil Dead got made twice and the second one is better.

Romero and Savini's masterpiece plz.

Semi-Final #2 coming right up...

my next vote is DAY OF THE DEAD

(but I'll call a Florida-election commission foul on the last round - no one ever said that votes were per person and not per account - besides, how do you know there aren't other 'multiples' operating here - I feel like my constitutional rights have been violated. . . and my anus!)

pfft...thats a scary thought though!

What if Zero and IA75 were the same person? Or maybe Vod and newb? uh oh...:confused: That would be just like the HDC unofficial chatroom!!:eek:

:D




Sam Raimi's The Evil Dead still leads 8-5 over George Romero's Day of the Dead!!

more votes needed to decide the finalist...

know what we should end the tournament right here, because here is your answer

_____V_____ 12-24-2006 08:38 PM

The Evil Dead eventually wins 10-6 over Day of the Dead and walks into the FINAL of this tournament!! (HAIL TO THE KING BABY!)



The Grand Finale of the tournament rolls up next...

_____V_____ 12-24-2006 08:51 PM

This tournament has stretched for 3 whole months and its been a long and winding journey for plenty of the qualifiers from the Golden Era of Horror movies, the 1980s. There were plenty of surprise winners and losers, and plenty of comebacks to note. Some of them surprised with their popularity, while some others surprised with their losses.



As good as the Finalists may seem, dont forget the two overwhelming favorites who lost out in the Semis:-

Day of the Dead was the third extension of the creative brilliance shown by Romero's genius and Savini's artistry.

Carpenter's The Thing redefined the definition of the word "scary" as it broke all popularity records with the cine-going audience back then, as it still does now...



Finally, it all comes down to this moment. When two mighty titans of 1980s horror will fight it out to be crowned as the single defining milestone of the genre, which stamps its authority over an entire decade when horror was at its most popular peak.

Will it be the original's uniqueness?
Or the sequel's huge popularity?



You decide. Voting ends on Friday night, 29th of December...and the leader then will be crowned the 80s KING of horror...
