I'd planned to watch the Universal Horror films in release sequence and follow that with the Hammer Horror films. However, I screwed up and picked up a couple of Mill Creek 50 film sets and felt the need to watch them first. Those, along with another 15 or so purchases, pushed the plans into the...

I finished with 159 films (no TV). My co-workers think I'm nuts to watch so many films, much less horror, in one month. My wife *knows* I'm nuts... :D Basic stats: 1 film streamed 1 film on VCR 157 films on DVD 109 first time viewings 6 Languages (English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese...

Demon of Paradise (1987) - Another Roger Corman film. This is one of a 2-pack I won here during the Oscar live chat last year (lots of fun - and I normally don't pay attention to the awards shows).

Same here. I'm generally not a fan of zombie films, although I *do* like Last Man on Earth and both remakes, but I really enjoyed Night of the Living Dead. I picked up a RiffTrax version copy a couple of years ago for another horror challenge and was surprised at how effective the movie is. I...

I just stumbled onto this thread! Since I'm already doing a Horror Challenge on another board I might as well post my list here too. I've read most of the thread and will attempt to get to all of it as time between films allows. :) The comments about the new version of The Thing are right in...
