I'm feeling the spooky season. Here is the link to the original list challenge. I've listed below which movies I've selected to fulfill each requirement:
6 countries
1. Argentina: When Evil Lurks 2. Chile: El Conde 3. Czechoslovakia: The Cremator 4. Japan: Tetsuo: The Iron Man 5. Spain: The Day of the Beast, [REC] 6. Sweden: The Hour of the Wolf 7. UK: 7 movies 8. USA: 18 movies
8 decades
My selection includes at least one film for every decade from the 1920s to the 2020s
