Progress: 31/31 - Complete

Top Five
1. Rosemary’s Baby
2. Slumber Party Massacre
3. Re-Animator
4. Death Spa
5. Dracula (1958)

Final Thoughts: I enjoyed more of these than I thought I would. I rate ten of them as four stars. The ones I like most are either old or funny. Well, I guess all of these are old since I didn't watch anything past 1988. The old ones I like are more Horror/Thriller than Horror/Slasher.

I'm actually looking forward to next Hooptober. I will watch movies from the 1990s-2010s next time.

-------

I do not like horror films. So, what am I doing participating in this challenge? Well, there are many horror titles I really should have seen by now. Maybe a challenge will force me to actually watch some of these.

So, the plan is to watch 31 horror films between September 15 and October 31. I will try to review them all and tag them with HoopTober5.0 tag.

The categories were chosen by Cinemonster. Thanks for setting it up. Here is a link to the master list.
