This is my list for Hooptober Cinco: Your Terror is a Locked Room and I Have the Key as hosted by Cinemonster! I'm super excited for October to get here!
This is my third Hooptober, and my personal goal remains the same -- 60 films. I came in at 52 last year and 45 the year before, so I'm getting closer each year. We'll see if this is the year!
Cinemonster's Rules for this year:
- 10 'Anniversary Films' (Release years end in an 8, excluding 2018)
- Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)
- The Revenge of Frankenstein (1958)
- Night of the Blood Beast (1958)
- Genocide (1968)
- The Living Skeleton (1968)
- The Grapes of Death (1978)…
