In spite of Peter not voting on three films, the top 5 would have remained the same. The bottom half in order were: The Descent with 10 points, Curse of the Demon with 14 points, I Walked with a Zombie with 15 points, Masque of the Red Death with 16 points, Shaun of the Dead with 17 points. In fifth place with a surprisingly low 22 points is The Omen followed in fourth with 24 points by the equally surprisingly low Suspiria. In third place was The Body Snatcher with 28 points. With two points separating first and second place, Don’t Look Now falls to The Innocents by 33 points to 35 points. The Innocents will now head into my Netflix queue. I will receive it next week to be watched that subsequent weekend and reviewed in The Morning After to be posted on April 25 (due to a backlog, I may not be able to get the review posted by that time).
Here’s the deal: every week, I will be calling for suggestions of films to be added to my Netflix queue. Each person makes one suggestion and one alternate (in case I have seen one of your suggestions). The next week, when I call for new suggestions, we begin a one-week voting period to select the film to be placed immediately into my Netflix queue to be reviewed the weekend after (because I’ll already have my Netflix queue selections for the coming weekend). Then, you’ll find out what I thought in my weekly Morning After feature on Monday morning.
Sometimes a genre gets stuck in the rotation and it makes for a rough viewing schedule. Starting this week, I’m going to be asking for suggestions that fit a specific genre so each week can be a bit spicy. The genre or event listed each week will be posted at the end of this post.
To help decide what to pick, here is a list of what I’ve seen (or at least that I have personally logged).
