I know I didn't exactly light up the scoreboard in the recent sci-fi challenge, but I would like to take part in the horror one as well. I'm not saying I'll do great, but I might do better than in the last one at least.

Is The Boston Strangler all split screen, or is it on and off like The Thomas Crown Affair?

Note: For those that don't know, Timecode has no cuts or editing. When someone is riding in a cab somewhere, you sit and stare at them as they sit and do nothing in a cab until they get to there destination.
There's some convenience store robbery type movie that Troma distributed that does 4 frames. My wife also rented some other movie that does 4 frames but after watching Timecode I don't want to watch any godawful indie movie that uses it as a gimmick instead of having a decent plot.
In case anyone hasn't figured it out, I am not a fan of Timecode.

I just want to say that I hope there aren't any pages and pages of arguing this year. I live for horror movies and look forward to this every year now, and I just quit even checking the thread halfway through the month because it was so tedious reading all the bad vibes. It killed the mood for me and I even quit updating my list. So please, guys, let's keep it civil and fun.
With that being said, I'm still working full time and going to school full time, but I plan on packing as many movies as I can. I'm hoping I'll hit 100 this year, but I'll be happy to hit 75. Happy hauntings, everyone.
And Chad, I love the first post. Very nice and classy.

We did Ewe Boll last year, though. I think it was a joke listing that has run its course. There's so many other bad Horror directors to plug in there.

It's really not about doing great. Everyone has a schedule in their lives to follow that disrupts the movie challenge. As many of other people have said ( including me ) before, it's about having fun with this. It's about conversing with other people about the movies we love and some we don't love. And possibly picking up a few recommendations for movies that we haven't seen yet. But most of all just have fun with it and the hell with the final total.

I was just thinking, would Ernest Scared Stupid count? I know it's not exactly horror, but it's Halloween oriented and I guess it's children's horror. I would think it would count, but I just wanted to check.

This all sounds awesome to me. My only goal is to top the 25 I watched last year. Looking forward to it!
Edit: Ernest Scared Stupid better count! It's a title I watch every year.

There is a theater somewhat nearby that is showing this the weekend before Halloween. I might check it out. I don't know if this is a 35mm print or just the DVD projected on the big screen.
If I don't make it there, I can always watch my DVD.

is the DVD in print, or am I just thinking it's not anymore?
