Obviously this is not an attainable goal for everyone, so your personal goal is as high or as low as you choose. Whether it's achieved, surpassed, or not even close to being reached, the ultimate goal here is to enjoy yourself while conversing with fellow horror fans. </td><tr><TD BGCOLOR=#B0B0B0>As always, there will be a separate list thread posted roughly 2 weeks prior to the start date. Be creative and personalize your list however you wish - give reviews, post pics, link to your blog or start one on your page, provide IMDB links with your titles, add YouTube videos, include running times (calculating total times is up to you), etc. The forum software now allows for unlimited post length, although you're still welcome to post it in a weekly or biweekly format. It's also highly recommended that you provide a link to the list in your signature for easier access. </td></tr><tr><TD BGCOLOR=#E8E8E8>The only mandatory rule here is NUMBER YOUR LISTS! If you're uncertain of the title's genre classification the IMDB and allmovie are the go-to sources for determining its potential horror movie status. Of course, both sites have been known to make the occasional error and if you feel that's the case asking in the discussion thread is advised. Just keep in mind that the main deciding factor regarding what counts is you and you alone. <table border="2"><tr> <TD BGCOLOR=#B0B0B0> What qualifies? Movies = 1 entry (despite running time) TV shows count according to length as they're aired on TV (including commercials): 30 minute shows = ¼ an entry 1 hour shows = ½ an entry 2 hour shows = 1 entry Mini-Series = 1 entry for each day it aired Commentaries count. (no restrictions) Documentaries count. MORE DETAILED INFO: Spoiler:
</tr></td></table> Every facet of horror counts: Horror-comedies, Sci-Fi horror, wretchedly bad horror [Insert Current Remake Here], kiddie horror, creature features, erotic horror, Masters of Horror, silents, made-for-TV movies, etc. Sometime in November there will be a results thread posted. If you wish to be included in the stats provided (aside from your number ranking), please include the following in your list: </td></tr><tr><TD BGCOLOR=#E8E8E8>- First time viewings. The ☼ is a commonly used symbol. - Formats viewed. (BD, DVD, HD DVD, etc.) Blue text is often used to indicate Blu-rays. - Your personal goal. Even if it happens to be the challenge's goal of 100. Something might go here eventually. Stay tuned! </td></tr><tr><TD BGCOLOR=#B0B0B0>The formats and how you watch them is strictly your call -- DVD, Blu-ray, HD DVD, at the theater, on television, public domain downloads (links provided below), VHS, Laserdisc, Video On Demand, Netflix, UMD, MiniDV, CED, Unbox, through your neighbor's window, Apple TV, Watch Instantly, Hulu, Youtube, Payperview, Betamax, via laptop, netbook, VCD, Android phone, iPhone, iPad...you name it. And yes, that even includes the pan & scan edited-for-television movies that air on TBS with multiple pop-ups and commercial interruptions (NOT recommended!). Just make sure the film is viewed in it's entirety. </td></tr><tr><TD BGCOLOR=#E8E8E8>Keep it civil. We're here to have fun, so please don't take this thing too seriously. </td></tr><tr><TD BGCOLOR=#B0B0B0>You're welcome to include non-genre titles viewed during the month in your list, but please don't number them. </td></tr></table><BR> OPTIONAL SEE POST 2 OR THE LIST THREAD FOR MORE DETAILS. <table border="2"><tr><td bgcolor=#B0B0B0> THEME NIGHTS THE CHECKLIST 31 FILMS SUBSET 3 WILD CARDS Back with a vengeance and better than ever, this adds daily "themes" that include various links to horror sub-genres, studios, actors, directors and even a group marathon. This year's list is COMING SOON. </td><td bgcolor=#F4F4FF>Complete it and feel a sense of accomplishment. The Expanded Checklist is COMING SOON. </td><td bgcolor=#F4F4FF>Please include within spoiler tags to keep the list thread from running a mile long. Watch these 31 films on the listed day, with group discussion starting the next morning. Or don't watch them but still join the discussion. </td><td bgcolor=#F4F4FF>And don't forget the threads from the 2009 List and the Horror Film Club List are also being used for individual discussion. This year's list is COMING SOON.

Work from home? Ditto. Skip the supplemental material ...there's always November for that! Boredom setting in? Watch another movie! Try not to get too caught up in the numbers.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 6th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (Oct 1-31) P
Just finishd watching May (2002) and wondering what others thought of it. Still trying to figure out how I feel about this flick. Ebert gave it 4 out of 4 and I am wondering if I am missing something but, really, 4 out of 4 for this? If anything, the movie is making me think about it before penning a review so I guess it is leaving an impression.

This may be old news to some but as a huge Kubrick (and Fulci) fan I find this fascinating:

What are people's thoughts on Phantasm?
I was really disappointed by this one. Some people were telling me about things in the movie that scared the crap out of them, but I found it boring, and laughable more than scary. Am I missing something here? |
Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 6th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (Oct 1-31) P
^ I didn't think it was THAT scary, but I thought it was highly original film.

question, does anyone know if the blaxploitation film Sugar Hill is somewhere online - I'm been dying to see this, but I know it's most definately NOT on DVD, or VHS (I think).

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 6th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (Oct 1-31) P
After giving May a good long think I come to the conclusion that it missed the mark:
May is one messed up mama-jamma. Both the character and the film. I don’t quite know what to make of this one. Those who know me will know of my rants over the lack of originality in the current horror genre what with all the remakes marring up cinema screens with most, sigh, taking in enough cash to merit remakequals. Then along comes May, an quirky and new film that despite an obvious referencing of Frankenstein feels fresh though, perhaps, a little off. Sexual conflict, emotional trauma, lesbians, a well acted main role, gore but not to the point where it’s over the top. Yes, there’s a lot to enjoy here. Again, it’s hard to peg this one. I find myself wanting it to resonate more then it does. After all, I think, there are all those reviews online praising the film none more so amazing as Roger Ebert himself granting this 4 out of 4 stars. Ebert, with this rating, awards this the perfect film seal of approval. I guess, Rog, that doesn’t sit well with me. Annie Hall, for example, got three and a half stars. Is there really something so special in May that it should be placed so high? Maybe one has to consider that current state of modern horror here. It’s as though you have found a ripe peach in the tomato section, out of place, a little strange considering the surroundings. And maybe the film isn’t so original. May could be a slightly more demented, less telekentic, cousin of Carrie. I found the end of the film somewhat predictable and the ride to get there peppered with bad dialogue (“Do you have any ice I can rub on my nipples?” and pretty much anything utter by Anna Faris come to mind) and some annoying characters. If ever there is a Tommy remake we have our Roger Daltrey in Jeremy Sisto. In the end, I guess what I am getting is just because it’s new and fresh doesn’t make it good. Rating: ** Rating for the student film shown in May: ***.5 (Now that was new, fresh AND good) |

Just finished up The Burning (1981)
Minus the first 15 minutes, I thought the film was extremely dull. Which is a real feat when you have Boobs, decent kills and Savini FX work. |

the Reds game tonight should count as a wild card, dreadful.

I thought the pacing was perfect because the atmosphere was just effective and creepy. It works in a low key way for the most part and won me over. The editing and score are also top notch and really make the film far better than many others from the time period. If the atmosphere and characters didn't win me over, then I would have found the film boring with how slow it is in terms of long stretches between killings and such. But it works in a 'less is more' manner and delivers lots of tension, suspense, shocks, unease, which makes it all the more effective once a killing does occur than if it were a nonstop slash fest. The film gets a big :thumbsup: and **** out of **** from me! |
