I think that you should rent "Dead Alive", it's sick and funny. If you have one to recomend, let's hear it.

My perennial favourite Halloween flick: Legend Of Hell House, the BEST haunted house movie ever, mostly because of it's eerie realistic quality- it's not like Poltergeist (a good flick too IMO) where all manner of crazy s**t happens, it's goosebumpy precisely because it very well COULD be possible....

In this house it's "Slither" and "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and "Shaun of the Dead". I like some humor thrown in with the creepiness.

My daughter found punk covers of the songs of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and I wish I could fit them into the film some how. It would be even funnier.

Important people don't do field work.


Oh...Fright Night. It's my favorite horror film. Arsenic and Old Lace also gets a viewing on Halloween. Then again, so does Halloween. And I mean 1978 Halloween. Rob Zombie's was serviceable, but John Carpenter spent some time in the town I was born in in KY, and most of the street, city, and county names come from the region.

I also usually watch the Legend of Sleepy Hollow half of Ichabod and Mr. Toad. For a children's short film, it's oddly atmospheric and moody in parts.

Yeah...I usually have to watch at least those three on the day. But, this is October, where I try to get in at least one horror film a day. I'm a little behind the curve this year, but its a job of work to keep up with.

I really like most of John Carpenter's horror movies, "Halloween" is a classic. "Night of the Comet" and the remake of "Dawn of the Dead" are good if you like zombies. There's also "Motel Hell" which has a good chainsaw fight and the bad guy makes world famous Beef Jerky that turns out not to be beef. In the end he laments that his only regret is that he used preservatives.

I also LOVE Carpenter's Halloween. Also The Thing, but my favorite is The Fog--classic ghost story.
