Live football is rarely shown on a Saturday afternoons .... what killed Saturday afternoon films was cheap imported US crap and Brookside, which was on for about 4 hours every Saturday afternoon.

Besides, if you practise voudou, surely the Devil's game would appeal to you!

To answer your question, voodoo features mostly in horror films, as an element in some films like The Oblong Box, and prominently in anthologies like Tales from the Crypt and The Monkeys Paw.
