***FOR THOSE THAT LIKE TO DO EXTRA WORK: WATCH The Zodiac Killer and 10 Rillington Place. Like last year, there is a third film: Shaky Shivers. - Will Do.
Bonus challenge for myself - Watch films I haven't yet seen.
-review them all.(eek)
Challenge begins on September 15 12:01am CST (that's 3:01pm for us in AEST)
Good luck to you all! And Happy Hooptober!
*Update
Shaky Shivers is not available during this Halloween, so I decided to swap it out for a previous Hooptober bonus film in 'The Witch Who Came from the Sea.' As such I will be adding Shaky Shivers as an additional film next year.
*Update 2
@Cinemonster has stated to replace Shaky Shivers with Crawlspace as an extra bonus film. I've also added the supplementary, Please Kill Mr. Kinski as well.
