The Halloween night tradition continues for the 15th year in a row. No review excerpt this time (as I’m running out of interesting things to say/sources to quote regarding my favourite film of all-time), but instead here is a retrospective list on this month’s nightly viewings:

Another Shocktober, another great horror success. In addition, I peeped about 8-10 other random horror films throughout the month that were either on TV or a title that I owned from past years that I wanted to review (but ultimately did not count towards this year’s predominantly unique batch). Either way, my third annual “31 Days of Night” horrorthon is now in the bloody books (as soon as I finish up The Evil Dead, which I am currently peeping). So I certainly hope that the greatest month on the calendar was just as good to you as it was to me. I will try to do this again next October and come up with 29-30 new selections that I feel are worth my time watching (and your time reading review excerpts/poster art). But in the meantime, enjoy the remaining weeks of 2K11.
