I'll probably knock as many Friday the 13th movies out as a I can. Make it an all-day marathon. Maybe a couple of episodes of Friday the 13th: The Series if I get anxious to do something else, seeing as how I'm about to start the last season anyway. I recently did a werewolf movie binge about a month ago, so I'll probably wait to revisit until werewolf day next month.

While I wouldn't call JTM one of my favorites, I don't think it's nearly as bad as it's made out to be... then again, I think the same way for Jason Goes To Hell. Jason X is the only one of the series I really don't like at all.

Final Chapter is my favorite by far. It's one of the few cases where the characters feel three dimensional. I was actually bummed as they get killed off. It's also one of the scarier entries, along with part II.

And I can never pick a favorite, but 2, 4, and 6 are definitely up there. Part 3's also a blast in 3D.

Part 6 is my favorite of the series and probably one of my favorite horror films altogether, but Part 4 is my second favorite with Part 2 and probably New Blood close behind.

I'm planning on starting out Friday the 13th tomorrow with The Snarling, which I don't know much about but is on Morbidly Beautiful's list of '35 Best Indie Horror Films of 2019,' we'll see about that...
https://morbidlybeautiful.com/best-indie-horror-2018/
Edit: Also Another Wolf Cop and maybe F13: New Blood.

I just took a look at the very first challenge we did. 2005 lists. I had a grand total of...um, 15.
It was neat to re-visit the first season anyhow.

Horror anthologies always surprise me - every year it seems like there are new horror anthologies, and anthology does not seem like an especially common format otherwise. Looking forward to checking out Field Guide to Evil and Nightmare Cinema this year - despite lukewarm reviews I've heard.

For the bonus Friday the 13th/full moon day, has anyone noticed anything interesting (maybe a newer movie) on either Netflix or Amazon Prime? Though there are a few things I have physical copies of that I've been meaning to get around to. The Black Cat (1934), The Wolf Man (1941), Ginger Snaps, and Cat People (1982).
Last year I couldn't make a run at 100 since I had a new course prep in the Fall (I'm a college professor) and that takes up a lot of time. But nothing new this Fall. And unlike some of you, I'll gladly take the bonus day to get a little head start.
I'll have to get back into my Dark Shadows coffin set DVDs. I was making great pace through them, but I just stalled out around episode 900 (getting into the "Leviathans" story line). In theory, Dark Shadows drawing inspiration from Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos sounds great. But the execution seems to be a bit of drag (and that was the general impression I got from others as well). But the end of the series is in sight (I think it stops shortly after 1200 episodes) so I can't give up now!

I did some more digging and it looks like a dvd of The Seventh Curse (1986) can be had, with caveats. There's a Greek dvd edition, put out by Silver Star, that is legit and can be had for a reasonable price. The easiest place to find it is Ebay, bearing in mind, it's Ebay. It's non-anamporphic and PAL, but it is R0.

Finally upgraded my Panny plasma to an LG OLED last month, so real excited for this. Wish it were being released in October but I'll take November...

I don't think I've ever been more excited for a 4K release. I'll gladly double-dip on that one.
I'm really hoping that'll also open the door for other boutique labels to start offering UHD releases.

Video quality isn't good. The series hasn't held up well, either (imo), but I've never watched it all the way through, so I'm two seasons in now. I really liked Prophecies (the next episode on my watch), so I'll see how it holds up soon. Just one more season to go, but I'm not sure I'll spend much of the challenge on it. Going to try and knock it out before the series fully begins.

Just don't forget The Seventh Curse is on Prime and AsianCrush. And One Cut is coming sometime this month to Shudder according to Fangoria.
I need to give Screambox a try.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 15th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31)
A reminder that the bonus day on Friday the 13th is just a few days away. And Trevor just mentioned in the other thread that there's going to also be a rare full moon that day, so it's now morphed into a Friday the 13th and full moon day.
That means anything associated with either of the two is eligible to include on your OHMC15 list:
Black Cats / Broken Mirrors / Ladders / F13 Films
Werewolves / Were-Creatures On A Full Moon
Just think of it as a day with two themes, and one is getting another go-around in October.
I'll post another reminder the day before in here and on Facebook.
Multiple counts was the clear-cut winner.
