To make things easier for you to join in, here are templates to the Top 100 and the Top 25 Horror.
Link to last year's striking, "Exloring the List 2010."
Today I've seen 61 of the Top 100 -- nine of the Top Ten, sixteen of the Top Twenty. Of the thirty-nine I haven't seen, I'm familiar with half, but not intimately connected with, or it has been a few too many years.
I did well at keeping up with Striking Out films that I hadn't seen as I went along last year, but unfortunately I only saw twelve of of those thirty-or-so films. I am making a commitment in 2011 to do better than that. Most likely I will take a month or two this Spring to track down as many of these titles as I can.
Added to this year's "Exploring the List" is the Horror Top 25, which follows. (I've seen eighteen of those twenty-five.)
