Cinemonster's amazing spooky-season challenge. I am always so pumped to do this! In addition to his rules below, I also try to watch all films I've never seen before, and throw some personal extras of my own in there.
The 'monster's rules:
6 countries
8 decades
2 folk horror
4 films from 1981
2 films from your birth year
2 haunted house films
The worst Part 2 that you haven't seen and can access. (I realize that this will take a little work)
1 film set in the woods
1 Kaiju or Kong film (not the new K v. G)
2 Hammer films
3 films with a person of color as director or lead. (excluding Asian)
3 Asian horror films.…
