Introductions to your Ghosts Hosts with the Most - Lonely of Lonely Horror Club and Projectile Varmint aka Suzie of Horror Movie Weekly Welcome back our Cagematch cohost Mister Watson The Cagematch Bracket & Rules Bracket: To create the brackets, we pulled a total of 28 horror films from the A24 filmography which were placed into “seeds” based on their IMDB & Rotten Tomatoes ratings. After ranking all of the films, we used a bracket creator, like people do for fantasy football or March madness, which generated our full A24 Cage match bracket. Check out the full bracket here.  Rules: For scoring and advancing, each host will rate the movie from 1 to 10 on the following metrics: acting, storytelling, scares, and cinematography. We can't give zeroes so the lowest possible overall score will be 12 and the highest possible overall score will be 120. In the event of a tie - the film with the highest Rotten Tomatoes score will advance. Each host will also have one wild card which will allow the host to rescore any film that has advanced to another round. Rounds All reviews contain spoilers!
