my first time doing hooptober!
i wanted an excuse to watch more movies, especially horror or horror-adjacent films, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity! there's a lot of overlap so i wiggled in some movies that i've been meaning to watch in the country and year categories to fill up some space.
