I'll jump in on this as well. Never gonna hit 100 but I'll try to get some good ones in.
The Grudge (10/1)
The Ring (10/2)
2 weddings in 2 weekends is going to kill me...but I plan on watching a movie a night. Luckily, most horror movies are right around 1.5hours which makes it nice to slip one in around 10pm before bed.

Of course it started out as challenges/converstaion, it was still September, what did you expect before 10/1? Once it turned October the posts became lists, so your little rip-off thread was lame - it was asking for the exact same lists already being posted in this thread. Oh, but what do I know, someone suggested it, so that clearly justifies starting a dupe thread.
Moving on...
October 1
1.The Fog
2.The Thing
October 2
3.The Burning
4.The House on Sorority Row
October 3
5.Final Exam
6.Hell Night

I just picked up the original Castle of Blood, of which this is a remake, during the recent DDD Synapse sale. That one should be arriving any day now - I'm looking forward to watching and comparing it to the remake.

Updated my list(post #79). All movies watched are from my DVD collection. The next few days are going to be tough to get through any movies with the baseball playoffs starting.

Off Topic Bargain Alert: Amazon is offering some kick ass prices on some horror titles right now, especially on Asian horror. I just picked up Oldboy and A Tale of Two Sisters Deluxe Edition for $8.49 each. I should have them in time for the contest. Check out this thread for the link.

I had no idea that there were so many sequels in the Children of the Corn series
question: Is Waxworks the R-rated cut of the film or the unrated version?

It says something like 2,033 titles...but I have about 50 yet to add in. Maybe this weekend I'll get to it. I've even gotten a few emails asking why I stopped buying dvds.
Yeah....being ill AND being my own boss....I get quite a bit of viddey time.

I'll keep trying though.
