Some of my favorite flicks


Hey freaky friends,

So Halloween is only a couple days away, and I'm already getting my annual antsy, ecstatic feeling that accompanies the day of the dead. My cable decided to go on a hiatus, so unfortunately I haven't been able to partake in all of TV's horror shows, but I'm not one to ignore movie rentals. So here are some of the films that I enjoy watching to put myself in a gleefully morbid mood.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show
If you really want the ultimate experience, catch this during a late-night showing at a local theater. Watching it on video will most likely ruin the experience. This baby is all about audience participation!

The Shining
Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of the Stephen King novel scares the pants off me every time I watch it. This movie will haunt your psyche long after you press the stop button on the DVD player.

The Silence of the Lambs
This is a film that I am almost thankful I was too young to see in theaters. It's a chilling hair raiser of a movie and is not for the weak-hearted. God bless you Anthony Hopkins.

Halloween (OF COURSE)
One of my favorite movies of all time. Child murderer, mental hospitals, frisky teens, babysitting, Halloween night...I'll let you do the math. You'll never look at knives the same after Michael Myers is done with you.

Poltergeist
Love thisssss. Watch it before you go haunted house hunting. Also, check out the curse that surrounds the movie.

A Nightmare on Elm Street
Alright, this is my all-time favorite horror movie, and probably my favorite movie ever. I love Freddy Krueger and his perfect mix of comedy and disgusting. Plus, it's Johnny Depp's first movie. Try going to sleep after watching this; you might never wake up.

Alien
Ultimate horror sci-fi combo. I will never travel to another planet and experiment with eggs because of this movie. I had many, many nightmares after I watched this magnificent film.

The Exorcist
I saw this when they re-released it in theaters. It is the only movie that ever left me trembling in my seat. Seriously, I couldn't move. This is a bloodcurdling movie, and the best possession film ever (if you ask me).

Evil Dead 2
Because Bruce Campbell owns your soul, and this movie is hilariously epic.

The Devil's Rejects
Awesome, brutal flick. Just see it.

The Amityville Horror
The original, not the awful remake. The theme song to this movie kills me. House possession movies are so creepy.

The Nightmare Before Christmas
Such a creative, unique and pretty animated film. Mixes elements of horror, fantasy, musical, and comedy. Yay!

Hocus Pocus
This was a childhood favorite and still amuses me.

Beetlejuice
Side-splitting movie, and it's good for the family!


This is only a taste of horror.
Get your groove on with these movies this Halloween and your destined to have a devilish day.

Love,
