Introductions!
Welcome to my annual Halloween Horr-tacular (not to be confused with the other similarly named extravaganza focusing on my street-walking ways). This is a month long event throughout all of October where I watch a horror movie a day and review it/make fun of it/weep silent tears of self-loathing as I watch Uwe Boll's House of the Dead for the fifth time in my life. I've done this before in 2014 and 2015 so view those if you're looking for an idea of what this is about. I'm posting this a week before everything starts in case someone wants to drop some movie suggestions for me. Here's how I'm going to be handling it this year:

What to Expect
Meh Mondays: You read that right, Mondays will be devoted to watching terrible movies from any decade or culture (because bad knows no boundaries).

Too Lazy Tuesdays: When I'm too lazy to search for movies on my own, I’ll be taking requests on Tuesdays for horror films. This is your opportunity to scare the pants back onto me (legal council advises me that scaring my pants off of me will likely result in civil action being taken against me since the ‘break-away pants haunted hayride incident’). I’ll watch anything you recommend (that I can find).

Wildcard Wednesdays: Dealer’s choice here. These movies will be random and whatever I feel like watching at that moment horror-related.

Throwback Thursdays: A day dedicated to watching vintage movies from the 60’s down. Let’s see if I can’t dig up a movie made by an old foaggie that might scare these whippersnappers.

Foreign Film Fridays: (#pretentious) Break out your wine glasses and MD 20/20 (the finest wine I’ve ever known), because Fridays will be dedicated to watching foreign films from all over the world.

Saturday Showdowns: Ever wanted to see similar movies go up against each other or wonder if the newer version trumps the remake? Welp, Saturday showdown will be for you as two films will go head-to-head and only one can walk away with the title of “slightly better than the other one”.

Creepypasta Sundays: Sundays will be devoted to movies inspired by creepypastas (campfire horror stories that have spread on the internet like urban legends). This may be a little more of a challenge, but I think I’ll be able to come up with some movies that were inspired by creepypastas. Additionally Self-Promotion Sunday will happen here and you’ll get to take a look at my sub-par writing as read by the internet’s finest.

I hope you join me for what has been heralded as a "massive waste of time", "a terrible idea", and "a perfect example of why this generation will doom the world". So let's get amped up for Halloween with some excellent movies (or excellently bad movies).
