Week 3 of the 31-Word horror-movie review contest is complete!
If you've never managed to earn 10k sats for typing 31 words, you really need to reconsider your life choices. We only have one week left in the 31-word horror movie micro review contest (perhaps there will be an extra special session in the last few days of October if I'm blown away by the stackers' horror movie acumen). So write some stuff about scary movies (but be sure to make it brief)!
12 submissions
The stackers eschewed classic horror this week and focused on modern scary movies (all but one review were from this millennium).

Honorable mentions
@Entrep reviewed Us and managed to include almost everything found your typical 1000-word review. Makes you wonder if every review ought to be 31 words or less?
@guerratotal reviewed The Descent with a very memorable 25 words: I think Descent is one of .
And the winner is
@lunanto's review of Dark Shadows!
Barnabas Collins swings from witty one liners to wooden stakes, making Dark Shadows a vampire-romp that's bite sized fun, but not exactly a bloodbath of brilliance.
I have a feeling this review is better than the movie, but I loved its weird mixture of exuberant horror movie terms and lackluster praise. Well done, @lunanto!
Next 10k sat prize to be awarded on October 29! All 31-word horror movie reviews posted from today through Tuesday, October 28 will be considered!

I don't know if @byzantine meant to enter my 31-word horror movie micro review contest, but the post fits all the criteria, so I am considering it anyway. ↩
