    Fun one!
    • I K Snamhcok 2s · 2022-10-21T18:34:15.619Z
      Much fun! You may not believe this, but I’ve seen one of these, 42a, at least 50 times.
    • Laura M 🤓35:22 · 2022-10-21T20:16:40.813Z
      Great puzzle, thanks! Horror isn't my favorite genre so I had to Google most of them, but I have seen 4 of the movies and I love Stephen King books (although mostly the less horror-ible ones).
      • boharr 8s · 2022-10-21T20:51:18.518Z
        Fun
        • imontoo 5s · 2022-10-21T22:17:26.361Z
          That was a mental workout! Thank you.

            That took a lot of googling since horror movies are not my thing. But still a fun challenge!
            • Carolyn 8s · 2022-10-22T16:22:10.360Z
              Had to work for that, but fun!

                I got six of them -- that was enough. No surprise the ones I got were ones before 1990.

                  Adding the years definitely helped. And I JUST figured out the title!
