*Edit: list has been shortened by cutting out some of the extra credit movies. I thought I needed 31 films (one for every day of October), but I don't.
For whatever reason, I missed out on last year's Hooptober due to still being a newbie on the block. Now that I'm taking this website (semi) seriously, I'm finally throwing my hat in the ring for Hooptober.
Obviously, this is taken from the glorious user Cinemonster, and you can find the original list here, even though I'll be going through the criteria on this list, too.
As an added bonus, I'm making all of these films first time watches for myself. Nothing I have seen before is allowed on the list, because I still need to expose myself to new and interesting cinema.
DA RULES (copied from Cinemonster):
*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, Terence 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.
*And 2 Tobe Hooper Films (There must ALWAYS be a Hooper film)
*All films must be reviewed!
*Watching and reviewing will start on September 15th
