Progress: 32/32
My Hooptober XII reviews can be found here! 

My Hooptober list from last year - Hooptober XI.

This is my second time around and I am excited. I finished all the films last year, so this year I added a lot of movies that I’ve been wanting to see to be optimistic. ALL of these are first time watches, other than maybe Candyman, which my cousin might have shown me when I was three or four (she was an irresponsible babysitter). EDIT - I added Rocky Horror Picture Show, that is not a first time watch but it’ll be fun!

Thank you Cinemonster for putting together Hooptober XII! His original list can be found here.

I listed them chronological order. Requirements/criteria in notes. For me, I put check marks next to what I completed. Thanks for reading!
