Proud 12 timer here! Sure, I've failed nearly every year, but I love making the lists and giving it the old Splatter University try!

Happy Hoopin' everyone!

Links to my previous years:
I - II - III - IV - V - VI - VII - VIII - IX - X - XI

I like to tinker with these lists to the very end, so nothing is set in stone.

Link to all of this year's reviews.

I want to thank Cinemonster once again for putting on this fantastic (and ever growing!) yearly challenge! There is no Hooptober without him!
