i don't remember us watching it together. but that's pretty cool if it was the first.
There was a live chat going on. I can't remember if it was through another site that we used, or we were still experimenting with it at the main board, but it was back in 2004 or 2005.
We popped that May cherry long before zombs!

I live in a pretty nice community in HOA. It's a major Halloween attraction and from 6-8pm there are tons of trick or treaters roaming the neighborhood. I got my giant hyperboom speaker, blasting absolute classic horror themes in the front yard while I watch Friday 2 in the living room and the wife and baby handing out candy. Lol

It just feels wrong not to watch my favorite movie on Halloween itself. Wish I had time to squeeze in II right after, but having to get up so damn early for commuting sucks ass.

Way too distracted for part 2. So much so that I'm not gonna put it in the tally or continue with 2-4. Dead & Buried might be the final watch.

There are 2 hours and 40 minutes left in October. I noticed I am 124 minutes away from 10,000 minutes watched, so I'm squeezing in a movie over 2 hours long and settled quickly on Rosemary's Baby to end October. Been a long time, only watched once maybe twice and was underwhelmed. Here we go.
