Hooptober 8.0: The Pride of ‘75

September is here! Time* for pumpkin beer, John Carpenter synths, skeleton-based decorations, and the reason for the season: horror movies.

From September 15th through October 31st, I’m going to watch and review 31 horror movies, using Cinemonster’s Hooptober 8.0 list as a guide. And unlike last year, NYC theaters are open, which means I’ll actually get to see some of these on the big screen! (Barring new variants, citywide shutdowns, asteroids, Freddy Krugers, etc.)

Note: List subject to constant change. All movies watched while drinking pumpkin beer and/or fall cocktails.
