Update: welp, didn't finish this year (18/34), got caught up doing other things. See you all next year!

Hello videodrones, and welcome to our fourth attempt at completing the Hooptober challenge! All of these are first-time watches (except for Versus and the Phantasm franchise). Not sure if I'm actually going to finish this year but I've been watching a lot of TV recently and figured I'd give it a go and try to get back into some film watching!
