Hi jackskellington17...I am a classic movie buff, so I go for the originals, Dracula, The Wolfman, Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein (love the hair), Creature from the Black Lagoon (still won't swim in water that I can't see the bottom :? ), The Mummy, The Haunting, Dracula Has Risen from the Grave, The Fly (with Vincent Price, of course)...'help me' :shock: ....House of Wax, House on Haunted Hill...you get the drift.

And every year my daughter and I pick an evening, and we carve pumpkins while we watch Young Frankentein...(I mean Franken-STEEN :lol: )

All My Friday the 13ths, Halloweens 1,2,3 & H20, The Fog, Phantasm, Frankenstein, and All of Romeros original installments of his living dead saga.
The dark night beckons. Bear us your soul, it whispers. Expose your wicked delights. Join the rest of us on the wind. The dark night beckons and we answer. Sailing into the shadows.

We watch all the classics: Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street, Psycho and all their sequels and Nightmare before Christmas is practically on a continuous loop. Since my daughter loves Johnny Depp we watch his movies Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow and the scariest movie he ever made Crybaby. Plus we spend alot of time watching reruns of old Halloween episodes of shows like Rosanne and others. :twisted:
Is it Halloween yet? and by the way it's not makeup it's jaundice.

As geeky as this sounds :oops: I like to watch the Halloweentown movies on disney channel. :D Other than that, all the usual...Friday the 13th movies, Nightmare before Christmas, etc. Just yesterday I bought "Blood and Chocolate" - kind of a werewolf love story :shock: :?

You guys named a bunch of cool stuff. I am with Hooch on the classic horror movies...but I also LOVE Halloween, Friday the 13th, and all the other 70s/80s horror movies.

Blood and Chocolate was a bit disappointing but I'll probably watch it again sometime. I think the whole werewolf/human love story and power struggle within the pack was a great idea but the movie failed to fully develop either...at least that's my humble opinion. :wink:
