UPDATE (11/02/20): Watching the final three films in this list in a week with a friend of mine whose also doing Hooptober. We were supposed to watch them in October but extenuating circumstances caused this to be postponed.

I attempted my first Hooptober celebration last year and failed drastically under the weight of a job. However, this year, I'm unemployed! So I fully intend on succeeding this time. I am so excited about Hooptober. I can't wait! Once again, will be sharing in the fun with my good buddy Chris Stephens, so check out his list, too!

Below, you will find the films that I have selected for this year's spooktacular. 31 films for 31 days of October. Quite an endeavor, but not impossible, and I will make it happen.

Rules from our leader of whom we are not worthy, Cinemonster!:

6 countries
6 decades
7 2nd films of franchises
4 body horror films
2 films from this year
3 disease based films
The highest rated horror film from the 50s that you haven't seen and can access.
1 film that is set entirely inside one location
1 Invisible Person film
1 Non Dracula Hammer Film
2 films with a black director or predominantly black cast or lead.
1 film with a movie theater in it.

And 1 Tobe Hooper Films (There must ALWAYS be a Hooper film)

***FOR THOSE THAT LIKE TO DO EXTRA WORK: WATCH The Witch Who Came From the Sea and Cube 2: Hypercube

Review them all.

Clearly one film can satisfy multiple criteria. Viewing and reviewing will begin at 12:01am cst on Sept 15th.
