Well it's that time of the year again, Summer is over and Fall is starting. So the challenge is simple...for every day in October you watch 1 horror film and then report in the thread your thoughts on said horror film. Each year I try and do a unique theme and as it's the rare triple double year this year's theme is .....
A. The Opening....
1. A Two Word Horror Film - Self explanatory this is a film which has only two words in the title...should be easy enough.
B. Double Feature.......
2. A film in a series
3. A Film in the same series
You may not know this but horror films have sequels....I know I was as shocked as many of you were. Sequels, prequels, remakes, reboots you do whatever your heart desires.
C . Double Feature Duo Trio (Must be the same people)
4. A film with the same Director/Actor
5. A film with the same Director/Actress
6. A film with the same Actor/Actress
Here comes the opportunity to separate the wheat from the chaff...horror films can be a collaborative effort you can approach this section one of two ways. You can pick films that star all three or if you wish to make it more challenging you can pick three films that exclude one of the options.
For Example
Director - John Carpenter - Actress - Adrienne Barbeau - The Thing(1982)
Director - John Carpenter - Actor - Tom Adkins - The Fog(1980)
Actress - Adrienne Barbeau - Actor Tom Adkins - Creepshow (1982)
Or....
Director - Wes Craven - Actress - Courtney Cox - Scream (1996)
Actress - Courtney Cox - Actor - David Arquette - Scream 2 (1997)
Director - Wes Craven - Actor - David Arquette - Scream 3 (200)
D. Repeat After Me.
7. A film that shares a word with 8 and 10
8. A film that shares the same word with 7 and 9
9. A film that shares the same word with 8 and 10
10. A film that shares the same word with 7 and 9
So this could be
7. Night of the Living Dead
8. Return of the Living Dead
9. Halloween IV The Return of Michael Myers
10 Halloween Night
The Challenge is to do it in the fewest words possible, but it could also be just one word.
E. Horror Double Word Bingo
11. A Film with a Serial Killer
12. A Film with a Haunted House
13. A Film on a College Campus
14. A Film in a Dystopian Future
15. A Film with a Final Girl
F. Time man...it just keeps going
16. A film released in 2022
17. A film released in 2020 (Minus 2 years)
18. A film released in 2002 (Minus 20 years)
19. A film released in 1982 (Minus 40 years)
20. A film released in 1960 (Minus 62 years)
21. A film released in a double year (1922, 1933, 1944, etc.)
G. Sub-Genre
22. Anthology-Horror
23. Body Horror
24.Creature Feature
25. Historical Horror
26. Horror-Comedy
27. Psychological Thriller
28. Religious Horror
29. Science Fiction - Horror
30. Sex Horror
31. Supernatural Horror
Pretty much every sub-genre I could think of...let me know what you guys think and good luck.
