OK, here we go:

I will begin as I did the last eleven(!) years: I would like to do 31 horror films in October, but that doesn't seem possible at the moment so I will start my 31 on September 15th.

I WILL REVIEW THEM ALL (I really mean that🤞). Those of you not new to the LB block know that horror is near and dear to my heart.

-I challenge anyone to do the same and use the TAG Hooptober12 so we can read each others stuff.

-If you are going to do it, list your link to YOUR list in the comments and i will add it to the intro to help others find your list. ( Hoop-tober index is HERE, 2.O HERE, 3.O HERE, 4.O HERE, 5.O HERE, 6.O HERE, 7.O HERE, 8.O HERE, 9.O HERE, 10.O HERE 11.O HERE)

QUICK EASY RULES:

There must be 31 horror films
6 countries (other than Italy or US)
9 decades

5 Zombie Films
3 cult or conspiracy horror films
1 film from a Black director with a Black lead
1 film from a Mexican or Central American director
1 Canadian film
1 former Soviet state film (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan)
The most popular film from the 1940s that you haven't seen and can access..
2 Post Apocalyptic horror films
1 Film with dreams or a dream as part of the plot
1 The animals are pissed at us film
1 Silent film
4 based on Novels
Any film from THIS list that you haven't seen.
1 Ernesto Gastaldi written film
1 film from 1932
I have never made a specific film a part of this before, but WIZARD of OZ ('39)

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

***FOR THOSE THAT LIKE TO DO EXTRA WORK: WATCH Burn Witch Burn, German Chainsaw Massacre & Trick or Treat (1986).

-review them all.(eek)

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

Now let's do that voodoo that we do so well.
