Your top Halloween movies?
 

As the title of the thread states...what are your favourite Halloween movies? Or just scary movies that you like to dust off for the Halloween season.

My all time favourite would have to be House. It's not a Halloween movie but it's a good "scary" movie that I've been watching since I was a kid. My #2 is Dawn of the Dead (crap my pants running zombie version)...because when there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth.

The Shining. I wish Jack Nicholson was still crazy

I love watching The Creature from the Black Lagoon Trilogy around this time of year. I mean, it's one of the Universal Classic Monsters and what better time of year to watch the original Classic Monster? :D

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

The Evil Dead, Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness, cant go wrong with any of them :D

I also enjoy the likes of Jaws, Secret Window and any Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episodes. :D As you can tell, I am just not into that diehard horror genera. :p

I'm with Cliffjumper and brr-icy.


Best traditions to introduce to my nieces are "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" and "Ghostbusters."

(They never show it anymore, but Garfield's Halloween special was my favorite when I was very young.)

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Near Dark's pretty good, but The Lost Boys is even better (or at the very least, more 80s).

Last year on halloween, we watched the Masters of Horror short films Cigarette Burns and Tales from the Witch House, which were both very good. And then we watched the abysmally bad Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter.

Hmm... Halloween? :) Except the 3rd one.

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Not a big fan of Horror movies, but I do like the cartoon classics like Oasis had mentioned.

I also like watching Nightmare before Christmas, even though it could be more considered a Christmas movie...

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Yeah, at least so far as Tim Burton was concerned. :rolleyes: but he also thought it was okay to make Oswald Cobblepot half-man / half-penguin. :rolleyes:

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

While my list is thin, I will go with Nightmare before Christmas

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Either Spaceballs or Aliens

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

I fail to see how this is bad.

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Wasn't scary, but the original Crow was set just before Halloween and it has a special place in my heart. Most of it's sequels...they're just 'special', but not in the same way. :)

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Too may horror movies to list...

Honestly though, as much as I love Friday the 13th, I have to go with "Halloween" (John Carpenters - not that Rob Zombie dreck) being the best Halloween movie.

Halloween 3: Season of the Witch is a GREAT Halloween movie too. It's really a shame it got lumped into the Halloween series, it would have gone down as a Classic Horror movie if it had to be a stand alone film.

SILVER SHAMROCK!!!

The 3rd one is actually a GREAT 80's Horror film. Too bad it got put into the Halloween franchise, people seem to universally hate the film because of this reason and not appreciate for what it is.

Cheers!

Anything by "The Wiggles". (they creep me out)

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Too many to list for me; I actually like horror films.

The Exorcist, JuOn, the 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead, Saw I, 28 Days Later, Frailty, etc...

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

Actually that was on YTV tonight, but it was kinda boring.

I like horror movies anytime of the year. It's The Simpson Halloween specials that I really like to watch, especially the older ones.

Dude, Where is my Car?

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

The Scream Trilogy. <3 It's shown either in part or its entirety, and I always make sure to catch it, somewhere.

Oh man, I love Wes Craven so much.

Halloween specials are good, too. Usually.

Re: Your top Halloween movies?
 

I'm not really in to horror flick per say but I do like my vampire movies be it Underworld Trilogy or Dracula, Dracula 2000 John Carpenter's Vampire even The Lost Boys.
