EDIT: I DID NOT REALIZE YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO FILL EVERY CATEGORY INDIVIDUALLY LMAO. Somehow 31 and 35 looked like a really similar list count. For this reason, I’m removing Mandy, From Dusk Till Dawn, The Thing from Another World, and Creepshow 2. Sad to see all of these films be removed from the official list but I’ll be sure to watch them anyways. Anyways, this list now officially meets the requirements of this years Hooptober!

I'll be starting this list ahead of time because I will be overseas for part of October and I'm not sure what I'll be able to watch there, since streaming services vary by region.

I have not seen any of these movies so I will be reviewing all of them as I go along. Excited for my first HoopTober!
