Day 1 of BoOctober, 31 days of some sort of horror movie, counting down to the best day of the year, Halloween. Reviews will be taking place in list formation, because when it comes to time, I’ve about as much as an obese person running from the living dead.
I’m the fat man, and that zombie is time.
