Halloween Horror Month 2016

Halloween Horror Month 2016

In 2012 I started doing my "Halloween Horror Month" where I try and watch at least 31 films in 31 days of October. Not sure what inspired it, but I had a lot of fun that year so have kept it up since.
This will be my 5th year doing it (see below the last day posts of '12-'15), so to mark that I thought I'd create a thread. I usually wait until October 1st to begin but I've been itching to start so I'm going to start today with "Fire in The Sky". Six days early, so this years target will be 37 films.

For me I'm not too strict in what qualifies, I basically just set the Blu-ray.com App to genre "Horror" and pick a film from there. Also means that there's plenty of variety, as you could be watching "Dawn of the Dead" one night and a comedy horror like "Beetlejuice" the next.
I've done Blu-ray (+ HD-DVD) for a couple of the years, but this year I think I'm going to pull from Blu, DVD, TV etc.

If this sounds like fun, feel free to join in.
My advice would be to not be too tough on yourself if you miss a day or three (life takes over sometimes), I inevitably end up catching up on weekends and shorter films like "Blood: The Last Vampire" can help in catching up.
