Log-in to your Netflix account, do a search for Halloween and find out. Do you expect other people to put in the work for you? Hell, I dont think you even need an account to search around.

Yes. I want City-Data suggestions... Not random netflix people suggestions. Why else would I post here? Please try not to be so rude.

We just watched a random '60s or '70s film (I can't remember which) called "Burn, Witch, Burn." If you don't mind old school and campy, it was really good. Also in our instant cue is:

Evil Dead
Carnival of Souls
American Werewolf in London
The Exorcist
Let the Right One In
Creepshow (VERY campy)

If you want some TV, the entire Twilight Zone and The X-Files are both available.

These plus what we already own are making for a great month

Good luck, and happy viewing!!!!

Thanks Eeyore, I love old horror movies. I'm going to check out Burn, Witch Burn. I've seen the others except Evil Dead and Creepshow, so I'll check those out too!

Happy halloween!

As far as the instant streaming, Netflix's horror selection is actually pretty poor. It's mostly 3rd rate slasher flicks. But there are a few gems:

Creepshow --- Totally campy and totally awesome.

An American Werewolf in London --- An almost-classic, but not for kids.

Night of the Living Dead --- The original. It was still streaming the last time I looked.

The Walking Dead (Season 1) --- One of the best shows on TV right now.

The Dead Zone (TV series) --- The TV series turned this more into a supernatural detective show than horror, but it's still fun.

I had to purchase The Walking Dead off of Itunes, I didnt see it on Netflix - well worth it though

I agree with Marks' comments about poor selection on Netflix. I would love to see Will Smith's " I am Legend" or Cruise " War of the Worlds".

Check out Youtube now offers a Movie Section with some free titles as well as some pay movies. If I were to recommend one great Halloween movie that many folks haven't seen it would be "Drag me to Hell". GREAT flick!

It's only been streaming for a couple of weeks. A recent addition.

Yeah, if you've got Youtube available on your TV, be sure to check out SILVER BULLET, a wonderfully campy Stephen King flick. They really missed it on that title though. That movie really should have been called Anne of Green Gables and Gary Busey vs. Reverend Werewolf.

I'll check it out for sure. thx

Also, for $99 my Apple TV box works great on streaming just about anything. Well worth the investment.
