Girlfriend and I tried to do the whole '1 horror movie a day' thing throughout October again this year. Only managed to get to around 28 movies in the end, but considering last year's attempt ended after exactly 2 (two), that's still an improvement.
These are the ones we watched (in random order):
Beyond the Darkness
Dollman vs Demonic Toys
Mystics in Bali
Burial Ground: Nights of Terror
Chopping Mall (rewatch)
Slugs (rewatch)
Leprechaun
Madhouse (the 1981 one)
The Dead Zone
Carnosaur
Killer Workout
Body Melt (rewatch)
The Stuff (rewatch)
Friday the 13th
Friday the 13th IV
Friday the 13th V
Friday the 13th VI
Friday the 13th VII
Friday the 13th VIII
Freddy vs Jason
Bride of Chucky
The Abominable Dr. Phibes
Basket Case 2
Basket Case 3
The Eye (the 2002 original)
Sleepaway Camp II
Necronomicon: Book of the Dead (rewatch)
Night of the Living Dead (Tom Savini remake)
There was no real set plan made in advance to select which movies we'd watch, I just decided to go with whatever I happened to already have lying around. In general, I can say that I enjoyed most of these in some way, as objectively clunky as some of these movies may have been. Many of them at least partially redeemed themselves either through good use of practical effects, a neat soundtrack or just straight up balls to the wall cheese (Burial Ground is legit one of the most absolutely ridiculous zombie films I've seen so far). The ones I ended up rewatching were movies I'd last seen nearly a decade ago, so I figured I'd give them another shot to see how they held up (spoiler: they held up pretty well).
After this semi-marathon through the majority of the Friday the 13th series (skipped parts 2 and 3 cuz I'd seen them relatively recently) I have to say I don't really get why part 8 is so hated. It's definitely a step down in comparison to the previous ones, and the whole 'lol we only actually get to Manhattan in the last 30 mins' thing was lame, but I still feel like Friday 5 and, hell, even the original, were simply less entertaining to me personally.
The Basket Case sequels turned out to be way more fun than I initially anticipated. It's definitely a massive shift in tone in comparison to the original, but this kind of maximalist, over the top approach worked quite well for us. Same goes for Bride of Chucky, I can totally see why it didn't gel well with people, but I ended up appreciating this kind of more comedic approach considering Child's Play 3 didn't really work for me at all.
I really liked The Dead Zone, but I legit do not see why it's labeled as a horror movie at all.
