Burd's #ScaryShuffleSeptember Days 1-7 Update

It's been a healthy mix so far. I tend to trust my intuition for what I add to my watchlist, which keeps my chances low of getting something that I outright dislike.

Highlight: The Scarehouse (2014) - A VERY mean Sorority revenge film that kept me on my toes.

Low Point: Cocaine Bear (2023) a snoozer in need of a practical bear suit.

Special Mention: Child in the Night (1990) for Elijah Wood's *adorable* debut.

#LastFourWatched #Cinemastodon

Skipping out on doing a proper last four watched for the week.

It's September 1st and that marks the beginning of Burd's #ScaryShuffleSeptember.

I expect to keep it low key & just do weekly recaps here in thread, if you'd like to follow along, the list is the best place:

I've already rolled up tonight's first pick, When Animals Dream (2014).

When & for what reason did I add it to my watchlist? No idea! Exciting, isn't it?

I have 1,781 entries in my film watchlist. A majority of which are horror/genre adjacent.

I'll never truly put a dent in it, but I've made a habit of turning Septembers into Burd's #ScaryShuffleSeptember.

Simple enough premise, everyday I shuffle my Letterboxd Watchlist to get 20 random suggestions, then role a d20 to find out what I'm watching that night.

I won't be doing play by play posting, but rather the occasional recap during the month. We'll see how I do.
