Show Notes

It's the Sweet 15 round of Macabre Madness 2020, when 16 horror films in 6 divisions get gory proving they're bigger, badder and better.
 
This year, we've got a twist: Winners determined by best COMBINED score from Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic, with handicapping based on decades since the film's release.
 
Who wins and loses in the Sweet 15? We've got:
In the sequel division... Aliens (1986) survives the helicopter decapitation of 28 Weeks Later (2007)
 
In the Occult division... Cindarella story Drag Me To Hell (2009) upsets the Freddy-fightin superheroes of A Nightmare on Elm Street: Dream Warriors (1987)
 
In the holiday horror division... the Xmas episode of Futurama ho-ho-hobliterates Happy Death Day (2017)
 
How does Macabre Madness work?
It’s a horror movie bracket tournament like the 64-team NCAA March Madness tournament, except we use horror films instead of college basketball teams. Last film standing is crowned Macabre motherfucking Champion!
