horror franchise knockout 🥊💥: results!
this is it! after 9 bloody, brutal rounds, we have our one lone survivor. it was a close fight between a formidable pairing - saw, a 19 year, nine movie franchise with a film coming out in october, and evil dead, a 42 year, four film and 3 season franchise with a film coming out in april! saw almost got eliminated in about half the rounds of the poll, but fought tooth and nail to make it to the finals. evil dead won the least votes every single round, skating all the way through to the last faceoff. in the end, only one can win this knockout game.
the winner of the horror franchise knockout tournament is….
evil dead!
the final matchup was pretty tight, especially given the total sweep evil dead had the entire game, with 53.3% of the votes for saw, and 46.7% of the votes for evil dead. thanks everyone for playing along, congrats to ash williams for being the least hated franchise babygirl on tumblr!
if you wanna take a look at the round results, you can view them here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, bonus
and if youre wondering if “least hated” is the same as “most liked”, keep reading to compare the results of this game with the bonus round, where i asked what the best/favorite franchise was!
horror franchise knockout eliminations in order, aka most hated to least hated:
- final destination
- child’s play
- psycho
- halloween
- friday the 13th
- texas chainsaw massacre
- nightmare on elm street
- scream
- saw
- evil dead
i wanted to look at what proportion of votes the eliminated franchises got relative to how many options there were, so that we could compare each round equivalently despite the differing numbers of options. these numbers are essentially the percent of votes divided by (1/number of films in the round), both as a whole number (so times 100).
based on that, the order from most severe sweep to closest-to-even result was:
- final destination (2.21)
- friday the 13th (2.20)
- child’s play (2.03)
- texas chainsaw massacre (1.90)
- nightmare on elm street (1.65)
- psycho (1.50)
- halloween (1.48)
- scream (1.13)
- saw (1.07)
- evil dead (.93)
and the result of the bonus round, from worst/least liked to best/favorite:
- psycho (3.4%)
- friday the 13th and texas chainsaw massacre (4.3%)
- halloween and nightmare on elm street (4.6%)
- final destination (6.1%)
- child's play (7.2%)
- scream (19.8%)
- evil dead (22.2%)
- saw (23.5%)
theres some pretty interesting differences between these orders! the final three in the knockout game (relatively close last two rounds) were also the most liked franchises by a landslide in the bonus round, (though saw managed to eek out the win there!) and the closest results by proportional numbers. but, the first two eliminated franchises (final destination and evil dead) fared better than the rest when i asked people to vote for what the liked most. of course, the fun of the game was seeing how the choices left impacted the votes, so the independent bonus round isnt the same at all, but its fun to look at
thanks again for playing!

I am truly starting to think, that we were supposed to get at least the main single by now, but something happened behind the scenes. Like, she started the promotion, the letters, the page, there were the rumours and stuff, and now there is silence.
Why put the promotion at motion at all, If you're not gonna deliver? I think she was supposed to, but now it's all postponed 🤔
It's just my gut feeling, of course I might be wrong. This might just be a weird new way of teasing us. Or maybe she changed her mind, idk.
