***FOR THOSE THAT LIKE TO DO EXTRA WORK: WATCH Horror Noire and Innocent Blood***
-review them all.(eek)
Clearly one film can satisfy multiple criteria. Viewing and reviewing will begin at 12:01am cst on Sept 15th.
Even if I end up failing the challenge, I always end up seeing a couple of gems as a direct result of this yearly tradition. There are lots of new-to-me's on this list and I'm excited to get spooky!
