Best Halloween movies

[ForceOfNature]

Alright, it's that time of the year again. We are 10 days away from Halloween. What in your opinion are the top Halloween movies (or horror movies that go with Halloween)?

[Aldridge Fan]

Every year I have to put in 'Pet Sematary'. To me it's just perfect for Halloween.

Others would maybe be 'The Shining', 'Session 8', or 'American Werewolf In London'. Whatever mood I'm in basically.

'The Thing' is another option. :confusedshrug:

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!

Ha! I remember watching that when I was kid. It was on every year too! Classic. :cheers:

The Shining
The Exorcist
The Sixth Sense
Poltergeist
Videodrome

[Aldridge Fan]

The Shining
The Exorcist
The Sixth Sense
Poltergeist
VideodromeYeah, Poltergeist is another good one.

The Exorcist trips me out. :(
(Good choice though)

I'd take Videodrome over all of them. Cronenberg was a real genius.

I'd take Videodrome over all of them. Cronenberg was a real genius.Hell yeah he is. The Fly gives me goose bumps every time I watch it. Great director. His work reminds me of David Lynch a little but Lynch is more surreal. Both very dark directors and good at what they do. :cheers:

The first time I saw Videodrome and the part came up with he starts digging around in the hole in his torso. That part really disturbed me. I can't say that has happened with many movies before or after. For that, I applaud him.

I've heard good things about it and seen the trailers but haven't had a chance yet. Is the story good? Damn, it looked violent.

[Gundress]

1) Twilight Zone created by Rod Serling.I know this is not the movie but I always have to watch classic tv series of all the time on Halloweens.

2) Psycho - Old classic movie with black & white color. I just love it. the way sound, etc.

3) The Exorcist

4) Phantasm

5) The Thing

WHAT!? You're killing me, bro! I've seen almost all of his movies and that's my favorite, without a doubt. Trust me, from one Cronenberg fan to another, you need to see this movie.

[Aldridge Fan]

You better come on here and review it in my rate the least movie you watched thread or shoot me a PM.

[Aldridge Fan]

You better come on here and review it in my rate the least movie you watched thread or shoot me a PM.I'll probably post on this thread or PM you if it's lost in the pages somewhere. Fa sure. Can't wait. Been looking forward to a good horror movie lately. Thanks bro. :cheers:

[Aldridge Fan]

You better come on here and review it in my rate the least movie you watched thread or shoot me a PM.I was late due for another movie that I just saw, 'Being John Malkovich'. :hammerhead: OMG that movie is funny and brilliant! I can't believe I've waited all these years to see it last weekend for the first time and I've watched just about everything! Great experience though. I'm going to buy that one. :D

[pete's montreux]

I've seen snippets of that, but I've never watched the whole movie.

[Aldridge Fan]

I've seen snippets of that, but I've never watched the whole movie.I was the same way. Saw snippets on TV but it never really made sence or interest me. It's a type of movie you have to see from start to finish. It's just too bizarre to watch parts of it and relate. Great movie. Check it out.

Man, Being John Malkovich is absolutely fantastic, I'm surprised you haven't seen that yet Pete. Really twisty, turvy movie that you couldn't predict if you tried. One of my favourites of all time - although I will admit that has a lot to do with the "genre" (quirky as ****) being right up my ally.

OMG, him singing on that piano cracked me up! :oldlol:

It truly was very well done and had a great story besides the comedy. :D

[RidonKs]

Yeah, Jonze and Kaufman are awesome together. They did Adaptation too, which is one of my favourite movies ever.

[BIZARRO]

The original and still the best. Halloween.

BINGO!!!

We have a winner! Yes, Halloween surely reigns supreme over all other horror movies. Does any other movie out there match it's creepy atmosphere? The music alone is enough to creep me out. That has to be the scariest music I've ever heard. Donald Pleasance is magnificent in the film. And is it just me or does anybody else feel bad for the poor girl that gets killed in the car? If you haven't seen it, it is a MUST SEE!

Sleepy Hollow

I ****ing love that movie.

[Lebron23]

Trick or Treat is the best Halloween Theme Movie.

[glidedrxlr22]

This month I've seen:

The House at the End of the Street
[REC 3]
Drag Me to Hell

I'm in the mood for a good ole fashion creature feature or slasher flick.

My annual Halloween watch is Dawn of the Dead....the modern one.

[thefatmiral]

nightmare on elm street
alien 1&2.
the conjuring
poltergeist 2. 1 is overrated to me

Dawn of the Dead remake is pretty amazing.

I watched this movie at 3 am. I was so scared.

Underrated Movie. Great performance from Christopher Walken.

[Coach Eddie]

Halloween.

[Dbrog]

Romero's Night of the Living Dead is a classic.

Underrated and not well known is The Fog. It's a pretty great movie (although campy) with a bit of an older feel. It's a strong recommendation if you are looking for something besides the ones everyone mentions. It's a John Carpenter movie btw.

I'm thinking of watching 15 horror/thriller movies this Halloween season that I haven't seen so I'd like to see some other strong recommendations from people. So far on my list is:

The Exorcist (I know...why the **** haven't I seen it yet?!)
Videodrome
Babadook
Evil Dead 2 (1st is one of my favs)
...?

[ThePhantomCreep]

Halloween
The Exorcist
Evil Dead 2
A Nightmare On Elm Street 3
Dawn of the Dead (1979)
Creepshow 1 & 2

My god horror movies have to be the worst genre in terms of acting and story

[NuggetsFan]

My god horror movies have to be the worst genre in terms of acting and story

IMO the genre has the biggest following but also tons of people who just straight up have no interest for some reason. It's my favorite.

I usually watch really cliche ones for a Halloween marathon. Trick 'R Treat, Halloween franchise, Screams and the obvious ones.

The Blob, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Nightbreed, Return of the Living Dead, Vamp, Night of the Creeps, Night of the Demons, Night of the Comet, They Live, Satan's Little Helper, Terror Train, Body Bags are ones I try to watch in October too. Satan's Little Helper, Terror Train would be good Halloween choices.
