Been doing October horror marathons for the past few years, but this is my first time Hooptobering. After I fulfilled all the rules, I had several slots to fill, so I picked movies I had never seen or extras that fit the one of the criteria.
Only 4 of these are repeat viewings: Poltergeist, Halloween, NOTLD, Dawn of the Dead
Likely will add a couple more as I’ll be starting on the 15th to get as many movies in as I can.
10 'Anniversary Films' (Release years end in an 8, excluding 2018): Blob, Martin, NOTLD, Dawn of the Dead, Killer Klowns, Body Snatchers, Halloween, Maniac Cop, Dead Ringers, Night of the Demons
6 countries: USA, Sweden, Italy, Austria, Japan,…
