Exactly, think like a vampire.

There's also Leviathan, an exhaustive, 4-hour doc on the first two Hellraiser movies that's well worth your time if you can find it online.

For Tobe Hooper I remember really enjoying The Mangler when I saw it in theaters, I was a lot younger but it seemed like the right mix of campy, wtf, and atmosoheric. I'll be curious to see how it stands up.

Also I'm hoping Hooper's 2004 mostly in name only remake for Toolbox Murders with Angela Bettis and Sheri Moon Zombie will be nicely dated even though it's not great.

For Tobe Hooper, I'm watching my TCM 40th anniversary edition I haven't watched yet.

Seeing so many people excited to start the Challenge really makes me feel good. I haven't seen so many people excited to start a Challenge in a long time. I can imagine how good that makes Chad feel.

Yeah, there hasn't been this much excitement about a challenge since... last October.

Big thanks to her as always!

I'm jealous. I never get any of those screenings locally.

Is this a different version than the one included on the Arrow Scarlet set?

About 4 hours to go for me , starting out with Cronos + The Most Dangerous Game on amazon prime (not sure how the color version they have is going to look though) + then probably Valerie & Her Week Of Wonders -- all first time views.

I won't be watching until October 1st which is ok because it makes me feel like a kid on Christmas Eve.

As the time draws nigh (and I think I have mentioned this before) but I think each year we do this of those people who think these types of films cause people to act violently. You think they should study a group of people who watch 100, sometimes 200 horror flicks in 30 days and see why we haven't killed anybody...

...errr, to the best of my knowledge.

Also, do any of you have any challenges rituals of sorts (no, not those kinds! ). I always kick things off with a play of Nick Caves SONG FOR JOY

Yes, thanks Alyxstarr! Your links are always such a great help.

Less than an hour to go...

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/

I have been obsessing for months about this challenge starting, then weeks before it does my local comic book shop starts to liquidate their stock while also converting to all cash and no tax and lots of freebies. Thankfully that ended tonight. Out of the 90 or so Blu-rays I purchased at $3 a piece (the comic store owner brought in his entire Blu-ray collection to sell as well) at least 10% are horror. But alas, now I can return my attention to what matters most.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 13th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/

Dusk here is 7:43. I'm ready to go. I'll probably start by clearing a couple movies off the DVR, maybe some TV. I've somehow never seen a Tremors film, and I recently recorded the first four (thanks, Cinemax). I might take a sampling.

I didn't clear my DVR nearly as much as I had hoped prior to the challenge, so I am worried I might start struggling with that later in the challenge. Just another variable to deal with!

So 100 or 200 are ok, but you worry about the 300 people? You know too much. Totally unrelated, where do you live View?

Only tradition is panic as I go back and forth in my mind on my plan for the month, and I leave too many projects and chores for this last day of prep.

So crap, small quandary here. Planning a first ever viewing of Eraserhead tonight, so go thru boxes and find my Lime Green boxset. It's still sealed, and on a whim, I look at ebay and amazon to see it goes for about $175-200. So now I'm torn on wether to open it up to watch, or sell it. I have some of on bluray, and will own the rest eventually I imagine.

Spent the morning acing the yard. Hopefully everything dies as I am not doing anything out there for the next month.

10 minutes until dusk and I can't wait to get into my first movie and break into the libations:
