Hi everyone! I know its been like 3 weeks since I updated this but I was super busy sorry for the long wait!
In case you forgot, here is a recap!
Last time, everyone had to battle 1v1 style with their movies, and the loser of each round would have one last chance to battle for their spot in the competition with a second movie!
Now that you're all caught up, let's get into it!

๐ก๐๐ค๐๐ ๐๐๐ - Newnightmare7 vs Thirteen
Panic Room (2002) NewNightmare7 - omg no way I have vivid memories of watching this movie yearssss ago! I even checked to see if I have the DVD but I guess it was a rental lolz. No but seriously rewatching this was so fun! I mean...damn..what a TENSE movie! I was on the edge of my seat for the whole movie omggggg likeeee...this was amazing. Jodie Foster can do no wrong I can watch her painting a wall and still be entertained. This was such an unexpected and unintentionally nostalgic watch for me so thanks for that!
VS
The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005) Thirteen - wow! another favorite from my teen years makes an appearance! It was kinda cool how you guys both unintentionally sent movies I watched as a kid LOL. This movie is great! I love how they focused on not only the possession and exorcism but attacked it from the stance of the court case. Very unique! I will say I actually found the court scenes more compelling than the flashback scenes! That exorcism scene though...very intense! Loved it! I really enjoyed rewatching this after quite a few years! Very nice!

๐ก๐๐ค๐๐ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ - turkeylover vs pennytrationstan
Evil Dead (2013) turkeylover - Not you sent one of my favorite horror movies of all time I'm sick... but likeeee....this is my fave for a reason! It's so gory and bloody and freaky and ugh I just love it!!! I can watch it a million times and not get bored. All the women in the movie are great and the men are alright I guess and sometimes that's all you need! A nice 300th rewatch for me!
VS
The Neon Demon (2016) pennytrationstan - God I love annoying artsy movies like this! Like this is another one of my favorite movies of all time! What really makes this movie enjoyable is the lighting and the soundtrack! I've also seen this 500 times so I don't have much to say except it was a fun 501st rewatch!

Contestants, I've made my decison. You sent two of my favorite movies so this was a hard decision to make.

๐ก๐๐ค๐๐ ๐ฃ๐๐ก๐๐ - coolKat vs Symmetry888
Heathers (1989)ย coolKat - Now this is a great movie!!! I just love movies like this! They're a wonderful mixture of horror, comedy and angsty for me to enjoy it and watch it a million times! I don't even know what to say about this movie since I don't have anything negative to say about it! Christian Slater was so hot back in the day. Winona Ryder literally hasn't aged. The plot of this movie still holds up to this day and the cinematography is pretty fun too!
VS
Everything Everywhere all at Once (2022) Symmetry888 - WHAT A MOVIE!!! Its so funny and action packed...yet still so profound and beautiful! The themes especially get to me... and that ending!!! Literally so beautiful. Who would have thought a scene with a rock having googly eyes would be one of the most powerful parts of a movie...and the CHARACTERS.... don't even get me started! Just a group of icons, really! Honestly...your best submission yet!
***
What a fierce duo of movies! I must say this decision was VERY hard for me to make! But in the end...I had to choose!
The WINNER of round three is

๐๐๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ฟ - Thirteen vs pennytationstan vs coolKat
The Bad Seed (1956) Thirteen - I love black and white horror movies! They just take me to a different time and it's so fun seeing how people in the 50s viewed horror. Nowdays creepy kids in horror movies is kind of a given, but back in those days this was something that I'm sure caused a lot of scandal! That little girl is a great actress and I love how it's a big mystery for the first half of the movie and then everything goes crazy in the second half! I will say on the negative side these old movies are like soooo long... like they could have shaved off a good thirty minutes of filler and I'd be happy.
VS
Titanic: The Legend Goes On (2000) pennytrationstan - oh mama this was bad. Again I think that was your intention. The animation was choppy, the dialogue makes absolutely no sense and worst of all... it isn't funny. The rapping scene with the dog??? And the choppy animation omg I can't. On a positive not the movie is only an hour long so yesssss!! This was THE hottest mess to ever grace the NMT stage. And I love that. Thank you.
VS
But Iโm a Cheerleader (1999) coolKat - OMG did you catch the part where I said I love wlw romance movies....cause yes I have seen this before and yes I do still love it on rewatch! This was just sooooo cute and also super funny! Very progressive too, for the 90s. The acting, the plot, Rupaul playing a conversion therapy coach...this was just a great watch for me! Both of your submissions this round were pretty stunning, actually!
