In the mood for some learning? Then you should make your SPOT below for this challenge.
1 point for any documentary.
2 points for a documentary about dark subject matter.
3 points for a documentary about the horror genre.
1 bonus point for an FTV.
DVD and Blu-ray commentaries are allowed and fall under the same rules, but no FTV point.
This year, we're going to try one small change. If you want to watch a documentary that's less than 40 minutes, you can, but you only receive half the points.
Mockumentaries are also allowed, but they must be feature length.
The Documentary Challenge will begin with June and end with June.
If you need some ideas for what to watch, here's last year's progress thread https://trashepics.com/post/9/197/.
