31 Horror Films in 31 Days

This is the second year I’ve participated in Daniel Kraus’s twitter escapade, #31HorrorFilms31Days. The concept is simple: whoever watches 31 horror movies throughout the month of October, and tweets about it … wins! Since I’m really competitive, even with myself, and since I had fun doing the same thing last year, I was determined to get through another 31 twisted, violent, spooky, and macabre flicks. Here they are in the order I watched them:

1. The Dunwich Horror :) +

2. Apartment 143

3. The Hole

4. The Initiation of Sarah :) +

5. Lovely Molly # $

6. The Stuff :) +

6.5 I’m Not Jesus Mommy - Couldn’t finish. Doesn’t count? :) :) :)

7. The Tall Man

8. Frankenweenie *

9. Tales From the Hood :) +

10. Uninhabited

11. Triangle * # $

12. Entrance # $

13. ils (Them) # $

14. Penumbra

15. Sinister #

16. Julia’s Eyes *

17. Bubba Ho-Tep :)

18. Ju-On: White Ghost * $

19. Ju-On: Black Ghost * $

20. Hostel Part III #

21. ATM #

22. Intruders :)

23. Asylum Blackout * #

24. May :) #

25. Pulse :)

26. Deadgirl ###

27. Room 237 *

28. Silent Hill * # :) $

29. Beyond the Black Rainbow *

30. The Haunting of Julia * +

31. Silent House. Not to be confused with Silent Hill. This one has an Olsen sister! * # $

So that’s it! I’ve included a handy decoder menu below to indicate how I felt about some of the films. These are not recommendations, especially if you’re under 17 years old. Many are rated R and will probably give you nightmares. Most fit into these 5 dumb categories:

:) Accidentally/ Purposely Hilarious

+ Retro-Junk

# Sick Stuff

* Surprisingly Worth Watching/ Really Good

$ Truly Terrifying

That’s it! My mind is melted. Bring on the hot apple cider, banana nut bread, and warm blankets because I need a cozy-intervention. (Especially after all this Frankenstorm nonsense!)

PPS - The one film on this list I recommend as a must see is Frankenweenie. It’s classic Tim Burton and beautifully weird.

Happy Halloween!
