Needs no introduction really, all you need to know that as per usual, I'm back for more Halloween-based horror movie mayhem, courtesy of Cinemonster. Again, I've tried to mix up the variety of sub-genres in this one, ranging from alien-invasion films, old-school slashers, horror-themed westerns, werewolf thrillers, a blaxploitation romp, and even a Disney cartoon for good measure.

The number of films was originally 40 since I wanted to cut down this year. Incidentally enough however, various changes over time resulted in me raising the tally between 45 and 50. Eventually, I settled on the latter, resulted in this being my largest one since 2016. However, the number of double-bills (a tradition of mine) has been cut down a little, since I'm running out of films to pair up with each other.

Still, I wholeheartedly enjoy this shit every year and will continue to do so as long as I remain active on this site.
