If you’re anything like my brother Jeremy and me, Halloween isn’t merely a day but an entire month long celebration. And what better way to celebrate all month long than by watching copious amounts of horror movies? As such, we’ve kept an annual tradition to assemble a watch list for October. These range from new flicks we’re excited to see to old favorites we’ve been meaning to get back to. This year, Jeremy and I have each selected thirteen movies so that you, dear reader, can take part in our family tradition.
