This year I am going to try for double again. A total of sixty two movies by October 31st, and I am going to fill out the list with Horror shorts to make it an even one hundred. Thanks to Cinemonster for putting this together every year, and good luck to everyone else who is participating. Happy Hoop-tober!
As always my initial list is tentative and very subject to change depending on availability of some of the more obscure movies I've picked. Once a film has officially been watched, I will add it below to the description list. I usually make a note of any major changes in the comments.
