BTW, next month’s Genre has been chosen by Jane of 500 Days of Film. She has chosen a genre that is also slightly out of my comfort zone, but I will persevere. We will be reviewing our favorite Horror Movies.
Please get me your submissions by the 25th of August by sending them to HorrorJane@movierob.net Try to think out of the box! Great choice Jane!
In July, The Amazing Anna over at Film Grimoire and I hosted a joint blogathon featuring movies that are 90 minutes or less! We had a total of 31 reviews, so thanks to everyone who participated!
*** Now that I have surpassed 2400 reviews, I will be gearing up for a new Movies From the Hat for my 2500th review. Look for details later today!*****
Thanks again to one and all for your participation in all that I do here on this site! Without you all, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish all that I have been able to over the past few years.
