Hooptober challenger since 2020 here, so here's my 6th Hooptober list!
As always, I pick exclusively horror films which I haven't seen, except for The Wizard of Oz, which was mandatory (see below), so some of them may not entirely fit the criteria under which they are listed ('cause, you know, I haven't seen them).
Usual disclaimer: I won't probably be able to do one film every day in October so I will start ASAP and/or watch more than one film in certain days.
You can find the original list (and all the participants) 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…
