Never did this before, but I'll go for it. I'll be blogging about this on my site, serpent-club.com

I have more than 31 movies because I decided to see how many of the tasks I can do w/o overlapping. Right now I'm at 42? Let's see if I can do this, lol. I noted where I'm watching each film, in case anyone is interested:

key:
[t] = Tubi TV
[v] = Vudu
[a] = Amazon Prime
[n] = Netflix
[BHF] = Brooklyn Horror Fest
[MRF] = My Retro Flix (roku channel)
[CMC] = classic movie channel (roku)
[BM TV] = Beta Max TV

UPDATE 9/9: I overhauled my list quite a bit. I think I narrowed it down to something that's more feasible. i also had to update it to reflect the movies I plan on seeing at Brooklyn Horror Fest.

UPDATE 9/20 I keep adding and removing movies. Ugh. The blessing and curse of having a roku is that there are a TON of movie channels with all sorts of random, old, and fun choices. I keep finding new movies that I want to add.
