Count me in on the people that can watch any Halloween. I even enjoy the Rob Zombie remakes, though the first is significantly better than the second.

I watched House of 1000 Corpses last night. Probably the first time I've seen it since I was in college a decade ago.

Still loved it. It's such a terrible movie, but the style and entertainment are seriously great.

And I don't care how crazy and obnoxious she was in that movie - I'd be Dr. Satan's test subject for a night in the sack with Baby Firefly.

I know they're terrible, but every time I stumble upon any of the leprechaun movies at this time of year I can't help but watch it.

Halloween 1 and 3
The Howling
An American Werewolf in London
Children of the Corn
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Pumpkinhead
The Funhouse


ETA--I've made an October tradition of reading Dracula the last few years. If I'm being honest, after the 1st time through, I have just read Johnathon's chapters in the castle, then pick it back up in the end. The midddle is kinda crap.

Hasn't come out on Netflix yet, but I'm really looking forward to 1922. Reminds me of Frailty.

I think one that shouldn't be overlooked is What We Do in the Shadows.

It's a comedy, and it's fricking hilarious. Perfect reprieve from the horror movies without breaking the season's theme.

Pumpkinhead is on Amazon Prime. Very underrated creature feature from the 80s

Possibly one of the creepiest atmospheres in a movie of all time. Still holds up to this day.

Something Wicked This Way Comes


I've seen. Few of you mention this. I loved it as a kid, though haven't seen it in probably 25 years. It's Bradbury, and I picked up the novel a few years ago. Was about to start it, then realized it was close to Halloween and thought it may be best to just watch the movie again. Any thoughts on movie vs. book?

Mainly, where can you watch it? Is it on Netflix?
