Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I support this idea (I don't care who is removed).

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I like this idea for the 10th director spot or under Watch 3 Films You Haven't Seen Before.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

If you need 1 more writer, how about Wesley Strick ?

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

If Wesley Strick makes the checklist, it might just prompt me to finally watch Doom, a movie I've owned for years because the steelbook is cool.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Done. I added it with this link under the directors category.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I just added another entry giving us 21 for the first time. I'm too indecisive to pick one for removal, and couldn't find it in me to get rid of Oliver Reed.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

How about this:

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

We're practically there.

Unless I'm mistaken we just like four entries under the "Watch 3 films that you've never seen before that" category.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Here're some ideas to help finish out the "Watch 3 films that you've never seen before that" category:

--features a giant insect
--was made in Italy
--features a character who has a premonition
--is listed on the Film Registry of the National Film Preservation Board
--features time travel
--was shot in Alabama (next year, Alaska, then Arizona, Arkansas…)

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Thank you. I do believe that's everything. I'll reveal the finalized checklist tomorrow.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I apologize in advance for 2054 when we all have to watch Terror At Tenkiller

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

That is awesome. I wonder if there is list for "popular assholes in movies" as well :D :D :D

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Hey Chad, I noticed that Dick Miller is in two spots: under Actors and Recently Deceased. Should he be in two spots? I think we could delete him in Actors and keep him in the Recently Deceased. What do you think?

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Yes, although it depends on what kind you're talking about:

Top 10 Assholes in Horror Movies

Done. That brings us back down to the usual 20 entries.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

We're now at under 100 hours to go. Are we ready to roll?

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I've been so ready for the last 5 weeks!

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Kind of ready. Been working on the checklist. Have a big race most of Saturday, so that gives me Sunday to find everything. Easy....

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I was SO afraid to click on that link. :lol:

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I have a John Waters movie for you!

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Not at all ready. Haven’t done my usual pre-planning the checklist and pre-buying the subset films. Definitely doing the subsets and mostly theme compliance and 100-115 count this year, but think I’ll completely ignore the checklist for a change.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Knowing that I'm more prepared than Trevor makes me feel even more prepared.

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

I'm ready to buy some Subset films but I can't find the temp list. :sad:

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Also, details on Mondo Macabro's upcoming Halloween sale(and pre-order!):

Re: Pre-Horror Challenge 15: Building of the Optional Lists (Themes, Subset, & Checklist)
 

Here.

It was posted in the discussion thread this time. And that's in no particular order, but I'll have the hybrid table up either tonight or tomorrow anyway.

Every year I struggle with how much to prepare and follow the themes/subset/checklist, or to just relax and wing it. A couple years I’ve been super-prepared, and the others are more a compromise leaning towards the lists. This year, I’ll be more relaxed and “off book”, and that may become my norm. I still love all the lists and think they add a lot to the month, but need to keep my OCD in check to some degree.
