Octoblur 2014 Extra: Favorites Excluded!

Absolutely no one has asked me why I haven't included many well-known classics this Octoblur, but I'm going to answer it anyway: I've seen most of them.

One of my goals every October is to make a sizable dent in my horror movie-queue, and that is predominately made up of movies I haven't seen, or, if I have seen them, it's been a reeaaallly long time. I went over to Flickchart tonight and pulled out a list of my all-time favorite horror movies, to give an indication of what I really like, but am almost definitely not watching this month:

• The Exorcist
• The Texas Chain Saw Massacre
• The Shining
• The Fly
• An American Werewolf in London
• Psycho
• Poltergeist
• Little Shop of Horrors
• The Thing
• Alien
• The Omen
• Rosemary's Baby
• Halloween
• Jaws
• Nosferatu (1922)
• The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
• Frankenstein
• The Return of the Living Dead
• The Phantom of the Opera (1925)
• Bride of Frankenstein
• Gremlins
• Re-Animator
• Altered States
• Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)
• The Cabin in the Woods
• Let the Right One In
• Orphan
• Night of the Creeps
• Dawn of the Dead (1978 & 2004)
• The House of the Devil
• The Wicker Man
• Shaun of the Dead
• Evil Dead II
• Videodrome
• The Orphanage
• The Funhouse

You can't go wrong with any of those, IMO, but I don't feel compelled to watch them as part of this project. I did, however, pull a few movies from that list that I really need to re-watch, and may do so in the next two weeks for Octoblur:

• The Brood
• The Island of Dr. Moreau
• Suicide Club
• Feast
• Ringu
• From Beyond
