    Well a clear majority "liked it", so once again - like with Land and Diary - HPOTD's response was more positive than negative by a decided margin.

    The haters who shout the loudest might not like it, but it's the way it is.

    I voted I liked it at first. But the more time I've had to sit on it.....I would now probably vote disappointed or meh.

    No biggie. Opinions change.

    The bad part is that both this film and Diary have been dropping on my charts. I still enjoy Land, maybe even more as time goes on, but these two are sinking faster and faster...

    i'd argue that the majority of HPotD'ers were on drugs or blinded by romero-fan-boy-ism when they saw this film and voted.

    i honestly couldn't find any redeeming qualities at all in survival, and find the results of this poll to be very questionable....

    You can add my name to that petition.

    I posit that Gar released diary and survival in order to make Land look like a masterpiece.

    Noo, since your poll doesn't jive with certain opinions, MZ, the only logical conclusion is there must be conspiracy and intrigue afoot.

    A new poll is required right away to get to the bottom of it!

    You can't define your opinion by either loving it, liking it, neither here nor there, being disappointed by it, or hating it?

    Must there be options for "I like it, but only on Sundays whilst eating a cheese sandwich"?

    Haters never change...

    The polls do have some blatantly contradictory results. For example, more people voted Liked or better for Survival than did for Land. So comparing separate polls shows that Survival was better liked than Land. However, in the comparison polls Survival does worse than Land. Huh? The only thing I can figure is that people's expectations went down after Land and Diary such that Survival was judged less harshly on its own merits.

    Personally, I find it amazing that this poll showed Survival to be this well liked. It may be that the haters gonna hate like MZ says. But I think it's just as likely that the results are skewed based on the fact that people had to work harder to see the movie than either Land or Diary. How many people who hated Land didn't bother to see Survival?
    Just look at my face. You can tell I post at HPOTD.

    Exactly. Survival totally got graded on a curve, for me anyway.

    Survival can thank Diary if it ever manages to graduate and get into med school.
