Original description:
Happy autumn! The best time of year is back, which means that Hooptober is also looming on the horizon.

My only self-imposed ruled this time is that every time I pick a film I will randomise this list 3 times and then take the first film I haven't seen yet.

Also continuing my longstanding yet unplanned tradition of watching the whole Scream series throughout different Hooptober iterations.
