Please consider a donation, however small, to Fearless Comedy, a theater group I've been involved in for several years. They've allowed me to act in and write productions I otherwise would never have been able to do.

For those wondering how I was keeping up my blistering pace with Hubrisween viewings and reviews: I was unemployed. I know have a monotonous temp job that is sucking my brain power, and the last few reviews will no doubt be more spread out.
What? Another Hubrisween review? In alphabetical order for October? You bet. For letter U I go way back to the silent era for Lon Chaney goodness in The Unknown (1927):

In case anyone is curious, my decision process for picking Hubrisween movies is a bit of A: On the fly, maybe the day before. B: Something not a lot of people I know have seen. C: If I've had it on disk for a long time and never got to it, and if not if I can stream it without extra expense. D: Try to represent multiple eras. E: Try to represent multiple subgenres.
I'm kind of amazed I decide on anything at all.
Still doing Hubrisween reviews, A to Z horror films all during October. For L, I take a trip to found footage land with The Last Exorcism (2010): https://letterboxd.com/kelvinoid/film/the-last-exorcism/
