Like I say I love a film challenge, especially on Letterboxd and especially horror. This one is a cracker from Podcast Macabre.
This challenge will be a year long challenge with the leisurely pace of one film a week, 52 films for the year. First time viewings are highly encouraged but not required unless the category says so. Make your own list of 52 films based on the criteria below, and give us the link so we all can see!
== RULES ==
- Challenge runs from January 1st through December 31st.
- Write a review with each film you watch. It can be short and sweet or a manifesto. Your choice.
- Tag your reviews and lists with PM2022…
