This is the last week of the Madness for this year. We will be going into another contest called Noirvember which will be coming out separately from the movie blog. On Sunday, I will be releasing my 17 year anniversary of the movie blog. After that, I will be doing it every two weeks instead of every week with the exception of the month of October for the Madness.

ALYSS WINKLER (6 points)
Alyss is not a wild card but in a rising star on the indie scene and went to see this movies during a double feature in my town at the Cornerstone Center for the Arts. I also have the honor of getting to film a scene with her which never got off the ground but was quite fun. Also check out the group Night Art Productions that produced these movies. Two points for being a live event. (2 points)
The Grim Findings of Claudius (2022, 65 minutes, 666): This was a pretty fun and clever movie where Alyss in the object of another man's obsession and is kidnapped by him. It is very disturbing but also very funny. (2 points)

A Christmas Horror Story (2015, 99 minutes, 66 1/2): Amy co-stars as Caprice in this Christmas related horror story. This is a compilation of stories that are interwoven. Good selection for those who hate the sappy Christmas movies. Bonus points should include folklore, Krampas as the devilish character, and weather. (5 points)
Hell Fest (2018, 89 minutes, 66 1/2): Amy co-stars in this movie as Natalie who is with a group of friends of what seems like a really cool horror-themed amusement part until an actual serial killer starts wreaking havoc but blended in with the park until they started getting it. (2 points)
________________________________________________
ANYA TAYLOR-JOY (4 points)
Anya is a wild card this year for the first time even though I have been using her as a category for the last couple years. She would be a good candidate for a Women in Horror wild card.
The Miniaturist (2017, 154 minutes, 66 1/2): Anya stars in this PBS mini-series and period piece making this count. Maybe a bonus for remote village. (4 points)
________________________________________________

Barbara is not a wild card but she found her way onto this list.
Alfred Hitchcock Presents: A Little Sleep Season 2, Episode 38 (1957, 30 minutes, 66 1/2): Barbara is quite the party animal but that lifestyle catches up with her a bit. (.5 points)
Thumbelina (1994, 84 minutes, 66 1/2): Barbara co-stars as the mother of Thumbelina in Don Bluth's version of the Hans Christian Anderson tale. Bonus points for fairy tale and book I would say. (4 points)

Bojana is not a wild card but has a couple selections to become a category.
Birds of Prey and the Fabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (2020, 109 minutes, 666): Bojana plays a cameo role as Erika. Harley Quinn, Renee Montoya, Huntress, Black Canary, and a pre-Batgirl Cassandra Cain are forced to work through their differences and team up. This was a pretty fun movie if not taken to seriously and will boldly say that of all the DC Universe films, this comes at number two behind the Zach Snyder cut of JUSTICE LEAGUE. (2 points)
Drag Me to Hell (2009, 99 minutes, 666): Bojana plays the daughter of the vengeful person wanting revenge for being denied an extension on her loan. Maybe some sexy witch points? (6 points)
________________________________________________
BORIS KARLOFF (5 points)
Boris is not a wild card but has been one in the past and is an icon of horror.
Fear Chamber (1971, 88 minutes, 66): This is Boris's last movie and probably not the most memorable swan song of all time. Boris stars as Dr. Mantell who along with his team discover a rock that needs emotions to survive so they abduct and sacrifice women. Yes, lots of wtf to see. I did find this on Youtube and will give a shoutout to Deadgar's Dark Coffin Classics. Bonus for human sacrifice. (3 points)
Frankenstein (1931, 70 minutes, 666): This is the star-making role for Boris and part of what made him such an icon. (2 points)

Florence is a wild card this year and found some really good selections for her.
Black Widow (2021, 134 minutes, 666): This MCU selection counts this year where Florence is introduced as Yelena into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. (2 points)
Father of the Bride Part 3 (ish) (2020, 25 minutes 66 1/2): This is a short film that came out during Covid where the Banks family gets together via Zoom. Florence plays Megan who is one of the twins from part two. This was a reminder of those crazy times of 2020 and trying to make the most of the circumstances. (.5 points)
Fighting with my Family (2019, 108 minutes, 666 1/2): Florence stars as the wrestler Paige aka Saraya so this movie counts in a horror movie and tv contest. (2 points)
Hawkeye: So This is Christmas S1, E6 (2021, 61 minutes, 666): This is the last episode of the MCU series where Florence reprises her role of Yelena and is looking for revenge against Hawkeye believing that he was responsible for her sister's death.

Pet Sematary (2019, 101 minutes, 66 1/2): John co-stars in this Stephen King adaptation as Jud who has a very mysterious pet cemetery, yes I spelled it the right way. I feel this has a cult like society in the scene with the animal procession for a bonus point. Also, involves the cemetery for another point. I think I can get one more with being lost in the woods. (5 points)
Tales From the Crypt: You, Murderer S6, E15 (1995, 27 minutes, 66 1/2): John guest stars in this anthology series as Dr. Charles. This involves him making a criminal look like Humphrey Bogart where one might guess murder happens. The beginning of the episode with the Cryptkeeper is pretty funny where he parodies FORREST GUMP. (.5 points)
________________________________________________
KATHLEEN KINMONT (5 points)
This RENEGADE alum Kathleen is not a wild card but decided to pull some work together to get her into the Madness.
Mortal Kombat: Conquest S1, E21 (1999, 45 minutes, 66 1/2): Kathleen guest stars in this episode as Dion who is an old friend of Taja but the others question her loyalty. I think the god Rayden is a bonus point. (2 points)
Stormswept (1995, 93 points, 66): Kathleen co-stars as Missy who is one of few people trapped in a house that is haunted by a spirit of a slave master. Lots of eroticism and quite a bit wtf throughout the movie. Maybe a bonus for the weather which is a thunderstorm keeping them in the house. (3 points)

Lili is not a wild card but have a couple worthy selections for her.
The Conjuring (2013, 112 minutes, 666): Lili co-stars as Carolyn who is the mother of a family that is being terrorized by a dark presence. Points for remote village and and exorcism. (4 points) 
Eli (2019, 98 minutes, 66 1/2): Lili co-stars Dr. Horn who is not quite the great doctor everyone thinks. I think the religious paraphernalia, the human sacrifice elements and the implication of Satan might get bonus points. (5 points)
________________________________________________
LUCY HALE (4 points)
Lucy is not a wild card this year but has a couple good selections for me.
Scream 4 (2011, 111 minutes, 66 1/2): Lucy co-stars in this sequel as Sherrie. After a decade, someone is donning the Ghostface killer outfit and going after Sydney and those around her. I have not seen the latest one yet but of all the first four, I believe the killer in this one went to the most extreme measures to cover up what they were doing. (2 points) 
Truth or Dare (2018, 100 minutes, 66 1/2): Lucy co-stars in this film that shows how dangerous the game Truth and Dare can be. (2 points)

Michael is not a wild card but a couple selections came into play and became a category for the Madness this year.
The Crow (1994, 102 minutes, 666 1/2): Michael co-stars in this film as the main villain Top Dollar. Most know this was Brandon Lee's last movie before his tragic death. While this is a very violent film, I also find this to be strangely moving. Bonus point for the grave element. (3 points)
Treasure Planet (2002, 95 minutes, 666): Michael Wincott stars in this Disney film as Scroop. This is a pretty clever take on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic tale TREASURE ISLAND. I beleive this should qualify for high adventure and maybe creature feature. (2 points)
________________________________________________
NAOMIE HARRIS (7 points)
Naomie is a wild card this year so I have some wild cards for her.
Moonlight (2016, 111 minutes, 666): Here is a wild card where Naomie stars as Paula making this drama count for the week. (2 points)
Skyfall (2012, 143 minutes, 666 1/2): This is Naomie's introduction into the Bond franchise where she would become Moneypenny for the Daniel Craig era. This is possibly my favorite Bond film and has the most emotional depth of a Bond film in my opinion as well as the Daniel Craig era in general. (2.5 points)
Spectre (2015, 148 minutes, 66 1/2): Naomie reprises her role as Moneypenny in this Bond film where Bond goes on a rogue mission and needs her help as well as Q. (2.5 minutes)

Natalie is not a wild card this year but have a couple comic book selections that qualifies her.
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022, 118 minutes, 666): Natalie reprises her role as Jane Foster who gains powers like Thor. I know there are some who didn't care for this but I still enjoy it and Jane with powers. (2 points)
V for Vendetta (2005, 132 minutes, 666): Natalie co-stars in this dark comic book film as Evey who helps the vigilante V to overthrow the government. I believe this should count for the dystopian society. (2 points)
________________________________________________
NICOLE EGGERT (8 points)
Nicole is not a wild card but after going on a little BAYWATCH kick, I found an episode that qualifies and a horror movie with her.
Baywatch: Coronado del Soul Parts 1 and 2 S4, E14 and 15 (1994, 86 minutes, 66 1/2): When I was watching this show, I liked Pamela Anderson but Nicole was my middle school crush and later Yasmine Bleeth when she replaced Nicole. Nicole plays Summer Quinn where her and some of the other lifeguards take a weekend in San Diego to demonstrate water rescues. In her hotel room there is a ghost who believes she is his old flame. Leave it to me to argue BAYWATCH in the Madness without a wild card. (2 points)
The Haunting of Morella (1990, 82 minutes, 66): Nicole stars as Morella and then years later as her duaghter being possessed by Morella. This is based on a Poe story and I will guess pretty loosely based. ATB sexy witch points for sexy Nicole. (6 points)
________________________________________________
THE OLSEN TWINS (5.5 points)
The Olsen twins are wild cards this year where I feature what they are most known for.
Full House: Season 2 episodes 7-17 (1988, 24 minutes each, 66 1/2): I bring on some more of the Tanner family and I'm sure Elizabeth is regretting naming the Olsen Twins as wild cards. (5.5 points)

The Outsiders (1983, 91 minutes, 666): This is another one of Patrick's early work as Dallas who is essentially the leader of the Greasers. There is an owl in this movie for a bonus point. (3 points)
Road House (1989, 114 minutes, 66 1/2): This movie counts due to Patrick in this '80s action classic and need to have movies like this on here to maintain my King of the Loophole title. (2 points)
________________________________________________
PATRICK WYMARK (2 points)
Patrick is a wild card this year so anything he has done counts.
The League of Gentlemen (1960, 116 minutes, 66 1/2): This British crime comedy usually would not count but having Patrick in it makes it count. (2 points)
________________________________________________
ROSE MCIVER (1.5 points)

Sarah returns after week 1 and is a wild card this year so I can use anything she has ever done.
Girls Just Want to Have Fun (1985, 90 minutes, 66 1/2): Some '80s fun where Sarah stars as high schooler Janey who wants to go on a big dance show but must sneak around where her military father forbids it. Also of worth to see a young Helen Hunt and Shannen Doherty. (2 points)
Glee: Makeover S4, E3 (2012, 43 minutes, 666): I might be the first person to feature an episode of GLEE. This was the first of three episodes where Sarah plays Isabelle Wright who is an executive at Vogue and hires Kurt. (1 point)
