    This is not a poll on who is a better singer (obviously that would be Dio), or who had a better band (completely subjective), or which band has better musicians (I like Dio's sound, but Killswitch Engage wins in the department of sheer technical ability).

    It is merely a poll on which music video you think is the best for whatever reason! I'll let you elaborate.

    Despite being incredibly outdated, the special effects for Dio's original version of "Holy Diver" (1983) are actually still pretty cool. In comparison, the special effects for the Killswitch Engage video (2009) include the use of CGI, but still manage to make it look tastefully cheesy.

    Dio's video was perhaps not made to be intentionally funny, but it certainly comes off that way and inspires some hearty chuckling. The Killswitch Engage version, on the other hand, makes deliberate attempts at humor that induce some chuckles.

    Overall, which version do you think is the most entertaining? VOTE! OR DIE BY THE SWORD OF DIO!

    Both are horrible aesthetically but the original is by far better IMO
    Quem faz injúria vil e sem razão,Com forças e poder em que está posto,Não vence; que a vitória verdadeira É saber ter justiça nua e inteira-He who, solely to oppress,Employs or martial force, or power, achieves No victory; but a true victory Is gained,when justice triumphs and prevails.
