*I’m aiming for 31 films, but included multiple options for some criteria in case I can’t track a movie down. I'm always on the lookout for these titles, but I've given up on Possession, The Devils, Mother Joan of the Angels, and History of the Occult for this year. My max pace is a movie every other day, so I’ve started this challenge early. My "reviews" will be written as notes in this list.
10/23: I’m really behind on writing.
10/30: Met challenge conditions except writing. Didn’t fit it any extra credit watches.
