Even for me, I watched a ridiculous amount of movies yesterday and today.
58. Halloween H20
Michael returns to kill Laurie and her son at a private school 20 years later. It's great seeing Jamie Lee Curtis again but I don't like this movie very much.
59. Halloween: Resurrection
A group of kids webcasts from the Myers on Halloween night. A terrible movie and somehow not the worst of the series (Halloween 5).
With less than 10 days left, I don't feel a need to watch the Rob Zombie Halloweens (though the first isn't that bad) so I decided to go to Camp Blood.
60. Friday The 13th (1980) (unrated cut)
An unseen killer stalks counselors preparing to reopen a summer camp. Gory and suspenseful. The beginning of my overall favorite series of slasher movies.
61. Friday The 13th Part 2
Five years later, a group of kids at a counselor training center are stalked by Jason. I love the look of the sack that Jason wears and that the camp seems to be in the same general area (unlike the rest of the sequels) as the original movie. One of the best movies in the series.
62. Friday The 13th Part 3
Jason kills kids vacationing at a secluded house in the woods. Jason getting the mask is a highlight of the movie. The rest of the movie is just OK. The weakest of the first four movies.
63. Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter
Jason kills even more kids vacationing at another secluded house in the woods but this time, there's a boy who stops him. Gory and actually fairly suspenseful, I think this is the best movie in the series (edging out Part 2).
64. Friday The 13th: A New Beginning
A killer stalks kids at a halfway house for troubled youth. Lousy sequel where the director thinks that F13 movies are nothing more than killing, nudity & cursing and so he dumped a ton of those things into the movie and that's exactly what makes this movie interesting to watch. I guess it's so bad that it's good.
65. Friday The 13th: Part VI- Jason Lives
Jason lives and he returns to Camp Crystal Lake to kill counselors. Fun sequel that adds some humor and Alice Cooper songs(!).
66. Friday The 13th: Part VII- The New Blood
A telekinetic teen accidentally brings Jason back from the dead and he starts killing kids vacationing at yet another secluded house in the woods. There's some good kills in this movie and Kane Hodder is a great Jason but I don't like this movie (though it's definitely a favorite of many F13 fans).
67. Friday The 13th: Part VIII- Jason Takes Manhattan
Jason returns again and this time, he kills kids on a graduation cruise to New York City. Another bad sequel that's badness makes it interesting to watch. Maybe I'm just a masochist.
I was going to say "Well, that was over 2 days so it was only 5 movies a day" but I realized that doesn't really make it sound better.Good LORD!!!!
It helps to be a couch potato with little to do.I don't know how you guys do it. I can barely get myself to watch one a day on most days, some days I don't even manage one. Over the years of this challenge, I only had one day a couple years back where I managed 5 movies in one day. That was grueling.

People in my "normal" life always ask me how I can watch so many but I honestly don't think it's anything too outrageous. I mean, one could play this game smart and only watch movies that clock in at 60-70 minutes. If one was to do that, the time it takes someone to watch a football game you could have three movies watched. I know people who spend Sunday's watching football from 11am-11:30pm so that's technically 12 movies that someone could watch.
Personally speaking, I have to keep up with the married/family life but I do cut out sleep here and there and squeeze in as much as I can. I think a lot of people get home from work, watch their local news, watch a hour of Family Feud, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy, then a couple hours of CBS programing before ending the night with the news or a talk show.
On my normal nights I spend the last 90-minutes watching SportsCenter but I don't do that in October.
