VOTING HAS ENDED FOR TODAY. CHECK BACK IN TOMORROW MORNING FOR ROUND 3
THE ELITE EIGHT WILL BE FANTASTIC!
Hello all. MFF here.
The first round of the tournament was a huge success and the 32 have become 16. The voting was passionate and some battles were determined by one vote (Sorry Hatchet. Piranha got the vote). If anything it proved how loyal cinephiles are to their horror favorites. I (Mark) was pleased to see my personal favorite The Descent make it through to the next round.
The battled hardened horror films are ready for a new challenge. Make sure to vote for each contest in order to get your movie through the murderers row of quality cinema. Don’t miss out! We want to make sure you don’t react like Tucker and Dale when your favorite horror film loses by one vote.

Spelunkers Paradise Bracket
“British spelunkers and their pet Morlock vampires face off against a sexy lady werewolf pack and the Warrens investigate illegal British aliens. I was shocked that Attack the Block made it to this round. Martyrs was intense, thoughtful and well done. I wonder if most people didn’t just vote for the movie they recognized. Or maybe we just find those British accents so charming that even Love Actually would have beaten out Martyrs for best horror.” –John
The Descent vs. Trick ‘r Treat (2007)
The Conjuring (2013) vs. Attack the Block (2011)
Red Demon’s Lair Bracket
“After beating their comical opponents (Dead Snow and The Hazing), Jigsaw rigs a nanny cam death trap for the poltergeist we’d soon come to hate as Toby. But the real battle here is between Insidious and Evil Dead. Can the evil spirits of the Further survive the demons of Hell? Or will they be dead by dawn?” –John
Paranormal Activity (2007) vs. Saw
Insidious vs. Evil Dead (2013)
Upside Down Skyline Bracket
“I was disappointed that Grave Encounters didn’t make it. I’ll be even more disappointed if a possessed Patrick Wilson with some serious mommy issues beats out Sam Raimi’s gastrointestinal sensation Drag Me to Hell. I also figured that Final Destination would be here. But I guess the name recognition and brutality of Hills proves that a remake of a classic never dies. What’s funny is that the inbred hillbilly mutants of Hills are exactly what those poor teenagers thought Tucker and Dale were!” –John
Drag Me To Hell (2009) vs. Insidious 2 (2013)
The Hills Have Eyes vs. Tucker and Dale versus Evil (2010)
Merman Harbinger Bracket
“It should come as no surprise that Cabin beat the ass-to-mouth cult film The Human Centipede. I guess Cabin‘s story was just easier to swallow. Yuck. But how will the redneck zombie murder family fare against a school of Spring Breaker piranhas? As for Shaun of the Dead and a tween vampire I have no idea who will come out on top. Horror comedy or dark coming-of-age artistic film?
Check out the board. It seems Piranhas didn’t even make the list.
But merman…? Seems legit.
Without his Thor muscles I’m not so sure Hemsworth is up for piranhas.
Cabin in the Woods (2012) vs. Piranha 3D (2010)
Shaun of the Dead vs. Let the Right One In
