Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 5th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (Oct 1-31) P
There are very few academy length films of any type from those years, let alone horror. I don't think anyone here has found/used one longer than a short.
Most of us have been using the same ones, here are my three with IMDB links.
07 - The Execution of Mary, Queen of Scots (1895)
08 - Le chaudron infernal (1903)
09 - Frankenstein (1910)
Edit to add: All easily found on youtube. Also, you're obviously not reading everyone's lists, or you would have seen these about 8 times.

I wish that IFC, Sundance and Turner Classic Movies would hurry up and go HD. I would record a lot more stuff from those channels if they were.

You're a lot nice than I am. I just tell people things I noticed on different networks and let them do the work looking for times.

The Haunting (1963) - Great movie!
Really? That's disappointing. I would still love to see Turner Classics in HD. I don't mind recording movies that are "full frame" aspect ratio, but I try to avoid letterbox on SD channels, especially if I know that there's an anamorphic DVD or Blu-ray out there.

I just read a review of Black Devil Doll (2007) which comes out on DVD Oct. 27th. Sounds great. Has anyone see it?

^ Yes, it's fun but some scenes go on wayyyy too long. Still, it has a great score and I love the cinematography.

I think that would be a bit of a stretch. Although it does perfectly fit one of the checklist categories, which I won't name and spoil it for anyone.
But either way, an awesome movie that any film lover should watch. Who cares if it counts or not. I think I'll queue it up when I get home.
