Who will we send to face off against the Cenobtes in the Finals? Will it be the goofy, but noble Zombie Slayer, Shaun and his chums, or will the charming and evil Dr. Lecter pull out the final card in his fiendish bag of tricks and attempt the coup de gras? Get to the polls and vote people, they are open for business.

Shaun of the Dead gets my vote, one of the best movies in years.

Another hard entry into this series, I had to give it some long and heavy thought. Zombies, as I stated in the thread about sub-genre's is one of my favorites, and are more often than not going to get the nod over most everything else. As great as Silence of the Lambs is, I have to also roll with Shaun of the Dead on this match-up. :zombie:

Shaun of the Dead get's my vote for this one .. it was hysterical, one of the better films I have seen in awhile

 

[Sinister]

Well, "Shaun" is giving quite a showing against the malevolent Dr. Lecter. The reluctant zombie-killer is way ahead with an impressive 3-0 lead.

 

[Zombie-F]

Shaun of the Dead gets my vote too. It's a stylish little piece of film that has a pretty awesome mix of horror and comedy. While there is superior acting in Silence and a very good story, I just prefer Shaun in this matchup for no particular reason.

Shaun is a movie I've watched quite a few times now without getting bored with it yet, whereas I've seen Silence at least as many times and I can honestly do without seeing it ever again. Not that I dislike Silence, but I've seen all there is to see in it. Plus, Shaun is just a fun movie.

Comparing these two movies is not dissimilar to comparing B-Movies to Major Motion Pictures. I never would have believed Dr Lecter would be running four votes behind a zombie comedy! "Silence" is one of the finest psychological thrillers ever made, if not the finest! What the heck's up with this!?

 

[Sinister]

Judging by your response, my best friend, I take it that you A.) Are voting for Silence of the Lambs and B.) You have never seen Shaun of the Dead. Bearing all this in mind, I won't try to explain to you the four votes that put the Edgar Wright/ Simon Pegg soon-to-be modern classic ahead of the other. Instead, I implore you to rent Shaun of the Dead TONIGHT (Not tomorrow, next week or next month...ASAP) and then get back to me on this. That movie will speak volumes more than any words of praise I could give it.

 

[dougspaulding]

Honor kept me from voting in this catagory, as I have not seen "Shaun" yet. I have been wanting to for awhile and was planning on renting it this week, by the way. I have few doubts to its merits based on reviews, but Hannibal? Come on!

 

[Sinister]

That being said, we disregard any further protests that Spaulding might have and state as of this posting Shaun of the Dead: 4 and Silence of the Lambs: 0

 

[Omega]

I am alone on this one, Dr. Hannibal Lecter gets my vote. Shaun of the Dead was a good film don't get me wrong, but Lecter is just a very cool, calm character.

Shaun of the Dead: 4

Silence of the Lambs: 1

 

[Sinister]

Lecter finally has a vote. That isn't going to save him from the drubbing he's taking unless some folks get in here and start voting.

 

[Tom K]

I go with Shaun...

I loved Silence, but Shaun just has so much to offer...

 

[Sinister]

With T.K's vote, that put's "Shaun" ahead by four once more with "Silence" trailing in the distance. No sir, it isn't looking good for the cannibal.

 

[Sinister]

Anyone looking to up the score on either candidate had better roll in here and do it. The polls close Saturday and unless a miracle occurs, Shaun of the Dead will be facing off against Hellraiser in the finals. I'm not going to tell you who I'm voting for.

That will be a tough one for me, I love both

 

[Sinister]

Whenever the clear-cut victor emerges for the Finals, I want to do a second H.M.D.M. and pit that winner against the winner of this one. So stay tuned.

 

[Nefarious1]

Without a doubt! Shaun of the Dead!

 

[Mollins]

have to say Shaun, wouldnt really call it a horror though

 

[Zombie-F]

wouldnt really call it a horror though

Curious. Why not?
