    It Follows needs more votes. One of my favorite recent horrors, and my favorite of this group.

    If it comes down to It Follows vs. Drive, Drive will get my vote.

    voted It Follows. Which probably wasn't the right thing to do, because I haven't seen anything else in the bracket; but It Follows was so really good that I think I would have voted for it anyway

    As much as I enjoyed Drive after I first saw it in theaters, I haven't been compelled to watch it again. The film seems kind of hollow in hindsight, which is part of the point I know. That said, It Follows stayed with me long after leaving the theater.

    Sorry I didn't vote for them, haven't seen them, but they were a couple of the few titles in this tournament that I haven't seen yet, that I was interested in seeing sometime.

    I definitely recommend checking them out at some point

    Overlord is way better than it should be. It's a B level genre film, but it really knocks it out of the park.

    interesting, on this stage everything I vote for gets eliminated. In every group.
