This is my 5th HoopTober, and for the first time ever it's made up entirely of first-time viewings. As a child of the 70s and 80s, I'm truly surprised at the number of films from 1981 I've never seen (or heard of) . . . I blame the VHS selection at my video store.

I'm also doing the Podcast Macabre, History of Horror and Horror x 52 challenges this year, and thankfully there's some overlap.

Criteria for each film is in the notes, and this year's rules are here: boxd.it/cDGlW

Happy HoopTobering!
