This year I shall again be mostly trawling through YouTube for free horror films I haven't seen to make up my FTVs... Last year threw up some hidden treasures, and some real stinkers.
Also looking forward to my annual rewatches of old favourites like The Legend of Hell House, Ghostwatch, etc.

So we're allowed to choose our own movies, as long as 16 of them are first time views?

I have a question, why are documentaries not allowed in this? I've got a few lined up for October that are supposedly unsettling. And hell even some FF movies are set up as documentaries. Can we PLEASE include them?

My theme for this year will be Hammer Horror. I am sitting on 17 unwatched DVD/Blu-rays that I have amassed in the last few months.
And, of course, all the other good stuff that makes October so great. Halloween, Evil Dead, The Fog, The Shining, Dawn of the Dead etc.

I did the challenge a few years and enjoyed the experience, saw some great movies for the first time and quite a few stinkers also. Managed to watch 31 last time around and think I’ll have another go this year. I’ll be perusing your lists/progress posts to add to my watch list.

Last time I did this was on the IMDb threads, twice my progress posts were deleted and I got frustrated and quit posting. The following year I got so frustrated at watching bad movies I quit the challenge and haven't done it since. On the fence if I want to go again.
