After a successful, although painful at times, first time out with Hooptober 9, I'm back for Hooptober 10 with a bigger list!
Rules:
Watch 31 horror films between 15th September and 31 October 2022. I'm actually doing 37 (+1 for extra credit) so that each one fits one category (although some fit multiple, obvs). All are first time watches apart from the decades category which I used to fit in some Halloween classics.
6 countries: Don't Deliver Us From Evil, Variola Vera, Loft, Return of the Family Man, Rabid Grannies, Dangerous Seductress
8 decades: The Seventh Victim, The Bad Seed, Blind Beast, The Exorcist, Murderous Intent, The Amityville Curse, Lizard Baby, Prevenge
2 post apocalyptic or natural disaster related films:…

EDITS: Due to getting a little bit overambitious I've had to make a couple of changes to ensure I complete the challenge. Swapped out Amityville: Dollhouse for The Amityville Curse (decade 90s) and Phantasm for The Exorcist (though still hoping to get Phantasm in). Took out November as no longer available, replaced with Rabid Grannies. Removed Shaky Shivers as not available in UK.
The original list is here.
