My annual ritual of watching at least (but not limited to) one horror/holiday-themed movie for every day of the month. The original rules are to watch at least 16 films I have never seen each year and to keep the average score above 6 (forces me to not watch only garbage titles). This year I am adding three new challenges to keep it fresh and exciting: countries, genres, and decades.
There are 25 sub-genres that I must watch one from each, represent at least 10 countries, and one movie from every decade, starting with the 1920's..
