                Hooptober 12
╚═══*.·:·.☽✧ ✦ ✧☾.·:·.*═══╝

OP is Cinemonster
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 other’s 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 (1939)
 • 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)

Reminder: Review them all. (eek)

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