It might only be September, but there is a chill in the air here in Chicagoland . My kids were gaming with their own groups this long weekend and I got stuck doing Term Start duties that most of my instructors were supposed to have done 3 weeks ago.
I did get a chance to look over my list of potential movies for next month's October Horror Movie Challenge.
Like I mentioned last year I am going to go through a bunch of old VHS tapes I have laying around before I toss them. I have discovered that some of the quality of these tapes though are near-unwatchable.
Last year I was hoping that the tapes were in good enough shape and my VCR still worked. It does, but the tapes are not quite up to it. So I might be watching some on DVD/Blu-Ray/Streaming then tossing the tape.
My "first-time views" will go down a bit, but my OCD will be happy.
Though there are some here I have not seen in decades. My youngest son will be joining me for a few of these. Most will be his first-time views.
One of the movies I want to watch is not on Netflix, Amazon or OnDemand...so I have some digging to do.
