Another year done and dusted!!
All ranked, reviewed and watched.
Here we go again!!!
My fourth consecutive Hoop-tober and my first Hoop-tober that I am DEFINITELY going to complete this year because I'm finally not a student.
So grateful for all of Cine's hard work pulling these together every year. Each year my eyes are opened to so many different films that I might not have seen before. I always try to watch as many new films as possible. This year, all my films are FIRST WATCHES for me, so I'm excited about that.

My fourth consecutive Hoop-tober and my first Hoop-tober that I am DEFINITELY going to complete this year because I'm finally not a student.

As you can see, my list is a bit larger than the intended 31, not because I have added IT to my list, because I am terrified of clowns, but because my list was out of control and as hard as I tried, I couldn't get it any lower than this. All the criteria have been fulfilled (and you will find which film fill which criteria in the notes) and all of the films I had to remove from my draft I am going to try to watch before Hoop-tober officially starts on September 15th.
I like to watch with people, so if we have any films that are the same and you watch to simul-watch with me, so we can tweet/chat about the awesomeness, please let me know! Otherwise, have fun and don't get scared now!
Cine's list is here if you want to see the full breakdown letterboxd.com/cinemonster/list/the-night-hooptober-came-home-hoop-tober/ or quick rules are here if you want to join in:
6 sequels (mix-and-match. 6 total)
6 countries

3 people eating people (non-zombie)
1 Hammer Film
