Are you ready for a month of spooky horror films? We’re ready and sharing our journey with you in this horror-centric special episode where we outline our love of the horror film genre, and how we typically approach our spooky movie marathons. Finally, we settle into revealing our approach to this year’s list of movies, then present the chosen films. Feel free to use the chapters to skip ahead….if you dare!
This year we both focus on our physical movie collections, a fitting theme considering all the discourse over digital “ownership” and streaming services. And with that, follow along with us as we post photos of our movie collection over on Instagram, where we’re trying (we’re human, after all) to post a daily image of our movie from our collections.
And why not…we’re going to try and write a brief review of each, so be sure to check us out on Letterboxd to find those.
And what’s this, it’s our 100th episode?! What better way to celebrate than with such a fun episode. It’s been a journey befitting the cinema itself, and we’re happy to have you along for the ride. Thank you for listening, and feel free to drop your favourite horror movies and October marathons in the comments!
