Programme the room, the running time, and the interval—not just three films you happen to love.

How to build a lifetime horror watch history without inventing dates or turning every film into homework.

Why one overall horror score cannot tell you what an evening will feel like.

A sensible order for checking subscriptions, free services, rentals, and purchases.

A smaller Halloween challenge with room for work, friends, and a few nights of actual sleep.
