kylet Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Picked up Toy Story of Terror and The Innkeepers on Bluray today. Excited to revisit both of those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyregret Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Every year I try to do 31 horror movies in October, most of the time wit success. I often try to map out what i'll be watching, and make weekly themes. This year, the theme is spontaneity. I am not scheduling any movies in advance and will let my mood dictate what I put on. So this morning when I woke up, I wanted something fun. Decided to go with Feast, I hadn't seen it in a while and I can say it still holds up really well.

The way god intended it to be seen. We pregamed for October by watching The Dead Zone and Heathers the other night. Tonight is Hocus Pocus and The Faculty. Gonna be a fun month. A little stressful, but my girlfriend has enough downtime during her evening shifts that she can watch a movie on her phone while I watch it at home.

Rip Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 @Bladewillisisdead inspired me with what he's doing so my fiancee' and I are currently doing something similar. We put a bit of a spin on it though. We each picked 15 horror films in secret (so neither of us knew what the other picked) and wrote them on slips of paper that we folded up and put into a hat. Each day we take turns picking one movie out of the hat at random. And no matter what it is, we HAVE to watch it. With our schedules, there will be some days when we can watch more than one, and there will also be other days when we won't get to watch any, so we figured 30 was a good number all-together. Now if you're wondering: "what happens if you both happen to write down the same movie and one of those is picked?" Well, we're keeping a log of what we watch anyways, but when that happens, we just make sure to check what we've watched and we'll either pick again, or choose another movie NOT at random to watch, either from our collection, Netflix, or Hulu. Funny enough, that happened with the very first draw. I won the game of Rock, Paper, Scissors, so I got to draw first and I picked The Wicker Man (the original), which she wrote down, but I knew I also had written that one down, haha. Last nights was the original Nightmare On Elm Street! I know we started this whole thing a couple days early, but we couldn't wait. chkadea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 I've been doing "31 Horror Movies in 31 Days" for a few years now and it's always nice to see more and more people doing it each year. My buddy got me to start and he's been doing it his whole life. Really wish I'd thought to start sooner. For years I'd just watch 3-5 movies on or around Haloween night Rip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyregret Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Since my last post, I've watched Creep, The Barrens, and Night of the Demons 09. I am now ending my day with All The Boys Love Mandy Lane. Rip and KingTacoMunster 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Today we did Adams Family Values. Now I'm watching Curse of Chucky (it's bad) and when my girlfriend gets home after midnight we're doing Beetlejuice. Tomorrow we start the ghost portion of the month. tonyregret 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't call it bad, but the low budget really limited the movie. I didn't like how it was 90% confined to the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyregret Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Change of plans last night, I went with The Guest instead. That movie is a love letter to everything I grew up watching as kid. Tonight I went with the 2014 redo of The Town That Dreaded Sundown. This is one of a handful of remakes that out shines the original film.

tonyregret Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Watching Phantasm Ravager as I type this. It's a fun nostalgia trip, but extremely low budget. Keep your expectations in check if you plan on watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 4 days and 8 movies down. Going pretty well this year. We skipped The Haunting because of the amount of alcohol it took to get through Crimson Peak. Absolutely gorgeous film, but wasted on a lame story and bad acting. Which is weird because all of those actors are very good (except Charlie Hunnam...I can't stand him) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
