October Scare Fest 2017
Perspectives
A long dead blog rises from the cool dirt, rotting flesh sloughing off and forming a neat puddle on the ground below it. October is a time for spooks and scares, so what better time to (briefly) reanimate The Impact Factor!
In all seriousness, the blog is dead. The podcast is ending in two episodes. But darn it I still love horror movies and want a platform to share my enthusiasm. I want to share my month-long list of horror movie watching with review scores.
Check back throughout October for a list of every scary movie I watched for Scare Fest 2017. You can check below for my past 3 years of Scare Fest lists. Let's hope for some 4+'s this year!
