Man. Listening to Mancini's score to Lifeforce right now and it's so damn good. Meant to see the movie in time for this poll, but a long visit from the mother-in-law prevented that. Maybe I'd have ended up with three Tobe Hooper joints on my ballot instead of two...

Sweet. I wondered if anyone else voted for Spontaneous Combustion and The Mangler.

OK, I'm calling it. Balloting is officially closed ...
UNLESS you can provide me a compelling excuse for your tardy ballot while I await Morbs' ballot, which I granted an extension. If I like your story enough and you're reasonably hasty, I'll let it slide.

I think the results have their fair share of happy surprises, though one or two of them are going to test my ability to remain neutral as the "host."
― jungleous butterflies strange birds (Eric H.), Thursday, 10 May 2012 13:32 (eleven years ago) link
Ha ha. Those are the kinds of hints I like to hear.
Speaking of hints, could you maybe just throw us a bone and, I dunno, post the entirety of the results thus far? I mean just real quick. Thanks so much!
― You Don't Throw Oranges On An Escalator (Deric W. Haircare), Thursday, 10 May 2012 13:38 (eleven years ago) link
And as the "host", you really deserve a moniker befitting the role, yeah? Like Uncle Putrid or The Casketmaker or somesuch.

Surely that should be "one or two of them are going to test my ability to remain neutral as The Host"?
― emil.y, Thursday, 10 May 2012 13:40 (eleven years ago) link
LOL, oh man, I should roll each and every result out in the style of an EC host. That could get tiresome after the first seven or eight.
