First formal Hooptobering, now that I 1) have a proper TV and 2) no longer live in New York (where the glut of big-screen rep options often dictated my viewing).
Not a Nightmare USA-type cred-seeking oddity scavenger hunt this time around: selections are shaped by what I’ll be able to catch prints of and the tastes of my historically horror-averse partner, and include numerous rewatches.
