Best Movie Scene Tournament: Octofinal - Group 1 of 8

During the Octofinal of The Best Movie Scene Tournament, please vote for the one movie scene you would like to move onto the next round. Only the top movie scene will be moving on. Keep in mind that the percentage of the vote a given movie scene receives will determine its standing going forward.

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do watch each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a movie scene well, it's still worth watching for a refresher.

Please remember that his tournament is for Best Scene, not Best Movie.
It's important to therefore judge each nomination on its individual merits and NOT by the entire movie.

The poll will run for seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

IMPORTANT! There will be no more tiebreaker polls. In the event of a tie, the number of "stated votes" within the thread will determine the winner.

The nominees are:


Chest Burst Surprise - Alien (1979)

"What’s in the Box?" - Se7en (1995) *** WARNING: MAJOR SPOILER ***

Oh no!

oh fuck you

I might have to wait this one out... I just can't make myself vote.

Sat on it for a day, and ended up going with AHHHH WHAT'S IN THE BOOOOX!?

I still remember watching that scene as a kid and being genuinely shocked and creeped the fuck out.

Also, how great is the cinematography in that scene? I mean seriously. Really helps enforce that element of unsettling.

The color palette is just spectacular and the cinematography is second to none.

That said, I might just wait until zero hour on this one.

The poll has closed and the following movie scene moves on:

Chest Burst Surprise - Alien (1979) 64.71%


And the following is eliminated:

"What’s in the Box?" - Se7en (1995) 35.29%

That should have been closer.
