    ofc Holy Motors is going to be knocked out in the first round

    if Under the Skin advances though, that will at least be a small consolation

    Burning and The Handmaiden are two films that I've been wanting to watch, so I'm holding off voting till I get to them.

    I agree on WWZ, but I suggest Prisoners if you haven't seen it.

    World War Z was such a disappointment. I think that movie disappointed me more than Bruce Campbell being killed so early in Congo.

    Same. World War Z is about as generic as a zombie movie can be, which is a shame because the book takes a very unique angle to it.

    Let's go, Burning!!!

    WWZ is trash, but of course it has more votes than a film like Burning or Under the Skin

    You like it more than something like 28 Days Later? Or are you a purist and consider it an infected movie?

    28 would be my second fav. I don’t know why I loved it so much. I can’t say man... I went and bought it on 3D when it came out and watched it quite a few times over. I’m surprised some here hated it. All my
    Movie pals were big fans too.

    I didn't hate WWZ...it was just meh compared to the book and other zombie movies in general. I prefer Dawn and Day of the Dead, Train To Busan, Return of the Living Dead, Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days later. Hell even the remake of Dawn is better than WWZ imho.

    I viewed Dolomite, and although funny at times, the movie was mediocre overall.

    So I watched Burning last night. I was definitely not as enamored with it as you guys. It started off really slow, but that last hour was really good. I voted for it here since there was only one other film for me to vote for, but not sure that it'll get another one from me of it moves on.

    I also didn't care for it all that much. But I'm not voting for very many films, so figured I'd toss it a vote one time.

    Under The Skin needs a lot more eyeballs on it. It needs to go far in this competition.

    Come on, nude Scarlett! What more do you want!?!?
