It's time to watch an unreasonable amount of horror movies.

Now an annual tradition, I'll be playing along with the Hooptober challenge but adding in some difficulty: only October counts and I have to go above and beyond the stated challenges. Also, I'm still looking for movies that truly frighten me.
