The World Cup of Stephen King #3 - the GROUP STAGE! 64 teams cut down to 32!

Here we go then! It's time to run through the group stage of the World Cup of Stephen King. There's no time for sentimentality as we cut our pool of 64 books down to 32! Across this video, we'll see how each of our 16 groups of 4 plays out. Each book will play three matches, facing each of their group mates once. Each match will be judged against a different marker: match 1 will be based on their scariness, match 2 of the quality of their characters, and match 3 on the strength of their adaptation. 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw, nothing for a loss. We'll then have our rankings for each group, and the top two teams will make it through to the knock-out round of 32. Hurrah! Don't forget to let me know which King book YOU think will win the world Cup of Stephen King!
