The Unsealed Print · World Horror
An 18 × 24 inch print-ready PDF of the list, no scratch panels. Emailed after purchase. Nothing sealed, nothing to scratch: the month on one sheet, for your own printer or print shop.
The month
Thirty-one films, fifteen countries, no English-language comfort zone. This is the edition for people who already own the canon and want the films that shaped it from outside. Some take effort to find. That is part of the month.
Pacing
Several titles are hard to stream. Check availability before October and buy or borrow the discs early. The Wailing closes the month at two and a half hours.
