Greetings friends! Hoop-Tober is back!
I only watched five films last Hoop-Tober (I know! I was busy), but loved it anyways, so why not try again this year?
As always, thanks to Cinemonster for putting this challenge together every year. Check out the original list here.
Here are the rules:
6 sequels (mix-and-match, 6 total):
-Aliens
-Bride of Frankenstein
-Day of the Dead
-Evil Dead II
-The Silence of the Lambs
-Horror of Dracula (yes, I know it's technically a remake rather than a sequel, but I couldn't find any other sequels I wanted to watch and this is close enough)
6 countries:
-UK: 28 Days Later, An American Werewolf in London, Horror of Dracula
-Austria: Angst
-Italy: Don't Look…

All will be first watches!
I may switch out a few of these if I feel like it or if I can't find a quality viewing method (as I'm afraid may be the cause with Tetsuo—perhaps I should look into torrenting).
Like last year, I promise to at least try to review all of them, but as you might be able to tell, I'm not so great at these challenges! Nevertheless, I wish everyone good luck and a happy Hoop-Tober.
Update: I only watched five this year as well! In my defense, I was too busy crying about my college applications to watch anything. I would say "here's to next year" again, but of course I probably won't ever complete this challenge any year. It's still fun to put together these lists and watch what I can though!
