Inspired by a recent re-read of Re/Search #10: Incredibly Strange Films, I've decided to cobble together a moviewatching challenge!
Mostly for my own amusement and entertainment, but if anyone else wants to play along, that would be most excellent.
Each of the categories in Lord Slaw's Incredibly Strange Films Moviewatching Challenge is inspired by Re/Search #10.
The rules are simple. Actually, there's only two:
1. No double-dipping. For example: if you choose to watch She-Devils On Wheels, that would serve as an H.G. Lewis movie OR a biker movie. Not both.
2. Provide a brief (or long) write-up of your reaction to the movie, or anything else you want to say about it.
Some of the challenge categories are genre-based.…

Some of the challenge categories are genre-based. Some genres are vast and nebulous; don't get too hung-up on categorization. If you can provide even the most tenuous reason why a flick you've picked fits a certain category, go for it. It's all just a bit of fun.
There are 38 criteria to meet to complete Lord Slaw's Incredibly Strange Films Moviewatching Challenge. The challenge will start March 17, 2022 and end December 31 2022. That's only about a movie a week; a sedate pace.
Finally, if you do play along, please label or hashtag or flag your views and reviews in some fashtion to indicate that they are part of Lord Slaw's Incredibly Strange Films Moviewatching Challenge.
And now the 38 criteria to meet to complete the challenge. Get as close as you can. Have fun. Share and Enjoy!
