Halloween Horror Marathon 2016: No One can Hear ME Scream

I'm gonna regret using that title when I actually revisit the Scream franchise...

Into the 3rd entry on this year's run, and I've made a decision. For the first time, I'm actually going to plan to stop at movie #105. When you reach a point where there are only about 5-10 movies on Netflix in the genre that you haven't seen, the time has come to reassess. That's exactly what I plan to do because my goal is usually to break my personal record each year. That's gonna get much harder with each passing year, and that means developing a strategy going forward. For now, I forge ahead with the usual rules.
  • No Prior knowledge of the movie
  • I have to have never seen it OR not seen it recently enough to form an opinion
  • Once the credits start (or I pass the 1:30 min. mark), there is NO TURNING BACK...
  • No David DeCoteau movies
Are there any gems left in my last 36 movies this year? Let's see what we find...
Hint: This is not a shot from a gem.

Halloween Horror Marathon 2016: As Legend has it...

And we are BACK!! Not shooting for a new personal record this year, but definitely forming a strategy for how to knock it outta the park in 2017. If I play my cards right, there may be enough franchises lined up that I can revisit with fresh eyes. But for now, it's grasping at whatever I can find...as long as it fits the following.
  • No Prior knowledge of the movie
  • I have to have never seen it OR not seen it recently enough to form an opinion
  • Once the credits start (or I pass the 1:30 min. mark), there is NO TURNING BACK...
  • No David DeCoteau movies
Back to the brutality. The best part of that sentence is you don't know if I mean the movies or the internalized agony of watching Ouija Experiment 2...
"Hey, boo. If you wanna see what mediocrity REALLY looks like..."
