Well, it's that time of the year. That time when I watch more horror films in the span of a month than during the whole year. This is what I live for. Ain't that juste like an insane, but awesome challenge? We have to thank Cinemonster for this great challenge! It's already the fifth year for Hooptober and that's crazy. For my part, this will be the third time I take a shot at the challenge. We'll see if I'll be able to finish it on a time for a third straight year!

I really love the rules this year, they are quite different and tricky too (the Anniversary films rule really threw me off). As for the films in my list, they are all first watch except for three: I watched both Rosemary's Baby and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre during my first Hooptober and I watched The Shining a long time ago and I'm more than due for a rewatch. The rest will all be surprises, hopefully good surprises!

***For all of you who see the 0 in my title not lined up with the 5, on the app and on my Mac they both are lined up. It's only on my PC that I see them not at the same level. And since I mainly use my Mac, I put "5.0" since it looks better than only "5". Anyway, that's just a little OCD of my part! And sorry for PC users ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ***

The rules:
10 'Anniversary Films' (Release years end in an 8, excluding 2018)
6 countries
6 decades
6 films from before 1970
6 films from the following: Romero, Cronenberg, Clive Barker, Terrence Fischer, Sergio Martino, Bill Lustig (mix-and-match, or all one)
2 flying things that kill you films
1 silent film as a tribute to A Quiet Place
1 aquatic menace film as a tribute to Meg
2 women directed films
1 inanimate object comes alive film
1 film with Barbara Crampton in it.
2 Tobe Hooper films

Let's get crazy!
