Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

I could go with Midnight Video, but they may be problematic due to the fact that they only released eight titles. That's fairly slim pickin's for a theme night.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Whoa, a lot of posts I need to read through to get caught up; that's what I get for moving this time of year. I wanted to score a 31 Days subset movie night. No idea a title yet. But if there's any nights left open.

I may have missed it, but I didn't see a previous theme of food incarnations. Like Pumpkinhead, NOES 4 (Freddy meatballs), Poultrygeist, The Stuff, etc.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Yeah, I know their selection is limited, though VHSCollector may not have every release listed. I know some of their other labels are incomplete. Either way, that was just my suggestion I won't cry if it doesn't work out

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

So can I put you down as a volunteer?

Yeah, still plenty of spots open. We're just now approaching the halfway point of volunteers needed now that you're volunteer #15.

On page 2 there's the 'Food That Eats You' suggestion. And this is the first vote its received, which is probably due to the very limited amount of titles offered. It'd definitely have to be combined with something else.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Maybe if there trouble picking a studio for 1980s video because of out of print and unavailable titles it would make sense to combine them afterall.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

That might be the best bet for the smaller labels, but bigger labels like Warner, MCA, Vestron, Media, Goodtimes, etc. have more than enough for a theme night.

Like I said, I don't personally have an issue with Midnight, since I've got two of the eight titles on DVD and another two on VHS. Availability may be a factor for others, though, since Midnight did indeed release ONLY those eight titles before closing up shop.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Yes, please!

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Okay, I'm not well-versed in horror films, but I also like to contribute to the community. So perhaps I could be put on a list of alternate volunteers, and you can put me in the game if there aren't enough players. (I'm also not good with sports analogues.)

Also, if you still need votes, mine would be for LGBT horror, horror with child actors, and writers vs. photographers. Those seem like fun ideas, and I plan to watch films that would qualify.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Wow. Just saw this thread and caught up with all the posts. As usual, I'm good for a subset choice.

As for themes, since we try to be fairly timely with a lot of our selections, I vote for an LGBT night. I might make some more suggestions later. Can't wait for October!

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

I'll throw my hat in to volunteer as well.

I plan to watch many of these movies (some for the very first time) within this list so I promise to pick one of them. :D

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Whoa. Last-minute voting has just helped re-shape the look of the list. I do plan on having the completed theme nights (minus the table formatting and cheesy taglines, which will come later) by the end of the day.

Alright, that makes you volunteer #16.

Sure, I can put you down as an alternate, but the chances of being bumped up to official volunteer are extremely high.

And you don't have to be a horror aficionado to participate. They'll be plenty of us to offer suggestions if needed.

Volunteer #17. And not much time left for voting; better hurry.

Volunteer #18.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

My vote is one company ---> Vestron.

http://www.imdb.com/company/co0030983/

http://www.critcononline.com/vestron...vhs_covers.htm
<BR>

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Vestron seems like a fair choice; I'll second Vestron if nothing else than to help move selection along.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Thirded!

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Before I post the theme nights list...

I claim R.I.P. Christopher Lee and and my subset pick is "The Wicker Man". Sorry, poster's privilege. :D

And I might wait until tomorrow to officially kick off the subset picking, but feel free to go ahead if you want once it's up. Of course a few have already have. Just whatever.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl

The raw version:

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

33?

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

31 days of October, plus after dusk on September 30th (Criterion Crossover) and until dawn on November 1st (Comedy Crossover). 33.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Sounds good - I still advocate for there being several of his films (and Mr Cravens' now, too) sprinkled around the subset picks.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

^I was even considering adding more than one of his films just within the theme.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Epic theme night list, well done!

Maybe this is petty but would it be reasonable to move 'Made-for-TV' to a weekend (maybe switching it with Vestron)? Having kids it's helpful to watch less extreme TV horror they can tolerate when they're home for the weekend. Bonus points to anyone who can point out a film containing all four elements.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

:up: and Waxworks!

Can't wait to get started with planning! My pre-challenge fun. :)

I just want to double-check something, though. These 4 are officially out now?

Free Admission
You'll Never Check Out
Book of the Dead
1965 vs 1990

I thought they made the cut early on but I'm not seeing them? (For the record, not complaining just checking to make sure! :) )

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

What about man-made monsters?

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Good. That is one I plan to watch. I've never seen it.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

I see. Thank you for the clarification.

You are in for a treat. The Wicker Man is one of the best films from the 70s.

I'm ready and rarin' to go. I'm already bookmarking YouTube videos and going through the horror sets on Amazon.

I'm ready to pick a subset flick for whatever night Chad assigns me.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

I thought the 1965 or 1990 one was confirmed, but it wasn't listed.

I need to start some planning. I usually don't, but I for sure need to start thinking of some titles I can take with me when I'm out of town for work.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

I don't know how I overlooked voting for 1965 or 1990 except that I thought it was confirmed also. It's funny that a couple of other people thought the same thing.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...u.png~original

Yeah, I somehow managed to not only exclude four themes that made the cut, but one of them was the most popular with the most votes received (Free Admission). So, what happened was ... oh, who cares. It's fixed.

And just in cased you got a little too cozy with the four I had to remove (spoiler for those who don't want to mourn the loss of a possible favorite):

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

European Passport might possibly sit better on the 24th - UN Day..

Another vote for TV being at a weekend - and maybe Mr Lee and Mr Craven, too. I like that Lee is currently #1, but the 3rd (Saturday) might give more time, possibly..?

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

1965 (50th)

Curse of the Fly
Die! Die! My Darling (AKA Frantic)
Dr. Terror's House of Horrors [LEE]
La Loba (AKA She-Wolf)
The Nanny [Oct 27th]
Nightmare Castle
Planet of the Vampires
Repulsion ((Criterion))
She
The Skull [LEE]
Sting of Death [Oct 17th]

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Here's hoping Last House on the Left wins for Craven.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

I think we can accommodate both. After horror comedies moved to 11/1, the only current weekend themes (both Saturday) are Vestron Video and drive-in double features (for the mass marathon).

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

The Annual Building of the 31 Film Subset Starts Here!

The subset list is comprised of 33 films (one for each day of the month + two crossover themes) with their own individual discussion threads. It syncs with theme nights.



2008 LIST | 2009 LIST | HFC LIST | 2010 LIST | 2011 LIST | 2012 LIST | 2013 LIST | 2014 LIST


All the films in alphabetical order (239 and counting):
By year (All the previous Subset tables):


If you need a little inspiration, here's some films that surprisingly still haven't been used:

We only need 7 more subset volunteers as of this post.
<BR>

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 11 Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checkl
 

Current Subset Volunteers, Claimed Themes, & Subset Picks

Remember, it's a good idea to claim more than one theme and more than one film per theme as possible backups.
