Was not expecting to open my timeline to see you doing Puppy discourse but I’m here for it.

Thanks for listening…

And with that, our October Horror Movie Challenge is done for another year. Whew!

Thanks for following along for those who did. And now as a little denouement on the year, we close out with what’s become kind of an end of Halloween tradition to celebrate.

32) Trick ‘r Treat (2007 - HBO Max)

Yeah the first movie was about ten years after the manga. I’ve never read them though. Enigma of Amigara Fault and Uzumaki were my entry point to Ito.

There’s been a decent consistent storyline through them. They’re all found footage/documentary style except this newest (and apparently final) one which is done like a standard movie

Okay! And now that we have the context of that one in place, time go to back to this one again. Our 31st for the year!

31) Hell House LLC: Lineage (2025 - Shudder)

bsky.app/profile/rtny...

Oops! Minor error! Turns out we didn’t watch the one before this which explains why I was a bit confused at the first few minutes. So we’re going to start our ACTUAL number 30 now then and return to the above one next.

30) Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor (2023 - Shudder)

We’re settled in for the night with our candy and fast food to finish out the month in proper fat kid style.

First up? What is (I believe?) supposed to be the final installment of this franchise we started watching a couple years back.

30) Hell House LLC: Lineage (2025 - Shudder)

Getting suuuuper close to being done this year! Only a couple left to go…

Going back to another recent one this time.

29) Heretic (2024 - HBO Max)

Man I’ve been so bad at keeping this list up.

We started this one Sunday night and finished it last night. I had seen it before but it had been ages.

28) One Missed Call (2003 - Shudder)

Forgot to post this yesterday. The next stop at j-horror station was one I could have sworn I had seen but turns out I hadn’t.

27) Noroi: The Curse (2005 - Shudder)

I think we’re gonna keep the J-Horror train going today.

I’ve never actually gotten around to watching this one before or reading the Junji Ito manga it’s based on either. Time to fix that.

This also marks the first time this year we’re getting ahead of the curve!

26) Tomie (1998 - Shudder)

First one today is a fairly recent Japanese offering I hadn’t heard of before until I stumbled onto it.

25) Best Wishes to All (2022 - Shudder)

Started this one last night and forgot to log it.

24) Until Dawn (2025 - Netflix)

Pulling into the final week here… let’s go back to the found footage/documentary well with one I only heard about recently.

23) Butterfly Kisses (2018 - Prime, Tubi)

Been meaning to watch this one for a long time now.

22) Pontypool (2008 - Shudder)

Forgot to post that we started this one last night.

21) Seed of Chucky (2004 - Peacock)

And tonight shifts back to a franchise we did earlier this month.

20) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986 - Tubi)
