Yes, but some posters list their movies as images, is what I was trying (badly) to say.

I ordered one today and it's supposed to show up the first or second week or October. As far as I can tell it's all region.
Thanks. I ordered this too. It received a favorable review from Glenn Erickson, and I don't have any of the 7 movies.

I think I'll indulge in some Classic Doctor Who horror this year. I'll pull whatever I decide to watch from this list:
  • The Dæmons - Season 8 (1971) - Demons
  • The Pyramids of Mars - Season 13 (1975) - Mummy
  • The Seeds of Doom - Season 13 (1976) - The Thing
  • The Brain of Mobius - Season 13 (1976) - Frankenstein
  • The Talons of Weng-Chiang - Season 14 (1977) - Grand Guignol
  • Image of the Fendhal - Season 15 (1977) - Occult
  • State of Decay - Season 18 (1980) - Vampires
  • The Curse of Fenric - Season 26 (1989) - Vampires
Next year I'll do Nu Who horror eps.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 17th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31)

If anyone is interested in stories about B Horror movies, I was talking to my dad earlier today and he told me about an interview with Ray Dennis Steckler from The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living And Became Mixed Up Zombies that is available on YouTube. I watched the first part this afternoon and thought it was quite interesting.

I would have thought that would have been just in their list and not in their stats section which is what would be getting parsed. I'm clearly just missing a detail of what you're saying which is unsurprising with how busy I've been at work lately. As such, I'm just gonna drop this whole imaginary parser thing
On to enjoying the run-up to the challenge.

Looking forward to this as always, just wish it were a bit earlier so you'd receive orders before Halloween.

Thought folks here would appreciate this bit of news. I was just checking my email after getting home from running errands and had an email from Fangoria. There is going to be a special subscriber only cover made for the Halloween Kills issue.

Speaking of Halloween Kills, it's going to come out on Peacock the same day it hits theaters! It will also be free to Peacock subscribers.

It's just been announced that Halloween Kills is coming to streaming day and date with the theatrical release on Peacock premium. I would strongly suggest this as our Halloween pick, as it's pretty much going to be an event film for horror fans and I think all of us will be checking it out.

Looks like I'm late to the party for this info, I support the suggestion of including it.

We've got two volunteers that haven't given picks and the Halloween spot is currently unoccupied. Of course it's solely up to the person who gets it. It would be something to have a subset that you also have the option of watching theatrically. And I think there's still a 7 day free Peacock trial.

You don't have to. Subsets can be watched any day.

Good news. My set shipped yesterday and is supposed to arrive between 30th September and 8th October (we'll see).

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 17th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31)

Here's the 2021 Subset List in no particular order with the physical media and streaming guide included. The theme/subset hybrid table with all the bells and whistles is coming sooner than later, and same goes for the subset threads. Until that time the current status of the assigned dates can be found on post 7 of the pre-challenge thread.

As always, an eclectic mix with a few classics, modern, under-the-radar, some Hong Kong Category III insanity*, gory, psychotronic, Gothic, obscure, erotic, family-friendly, a 4 and half hour documentary*, avant-garde, cheeseball, some anaglyph 3-D, foreign, an event film and some killer blue jeans. Quite a few have recent first-time Blu-ray and UHD releases and upgrades.

Fun fact: There's five films from 1987, three of them are part 2's, two of them we never covered the original, and two share the same release date!

If I missed something please let me know and I'll update accordingly. Comments welcome.

Spoiler:
*In Search of Darkness will count for 3 entries. So yes, you can watch the first hour and a half, still have it count, and wait until after the challenge to watch the rest. It's understandable some may not wish to invest that much time in one film.

*The Untold Story may not fit under Seasons (Summer). It was put there because the Wikipedia page stated the original "Eight Immortals Restaurant murders" the film was based on took place in Summer. Apologies if it doesn't fit there.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 17th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/31)

All the talk about letterboxd convinced me to look into it. I use icheckmovies to keep track of what I watch, but I don't like the idea of keeping all my eggs in one basket (and losing all that data if icheckmovies ever closes down). After a little fiddling around, I downloaded my info from icheckmovies and exported it to letterboxd, with just a few movies that didn't match up (fewer than 200 lost). Here's my letterboxd profile: https://letterboxd.com/dimension_x/

I was wondering what happened there, when you went from 0 to 10,000 like that.

Also Chad, love the focus on the physical media releases of the subset picks.
