Not necessarily Halloween themed movies but rather favorite movies you
watch for the Halloween season.

1. Halloween, the original (of course!).
2. Black Christmas, the original
3. Full Circle, Mia Farrow
4. Deep Red
5. The Innocents, Deborah Kerr
6. Reflections of Murder (a tv remake of Diabolique which I find to better than the original French movie).

All old movies but I like the classics.

Just saw elm street for the first time, it wasn’t scary at all.

I really don’t like Halloween!

I did see the original Halloween and Friday the 13th!

Night of the Living Dead, Halloween 1978, the Exorcist. The triple crown legends of horror. Night of the Demons and Return of the Living Dead 1 and 2 for some fun, laughs and seeing the 80's culture.

Last year watched "The Fly" with Jeff Goldblum. David Cronenberg has a knack for icky, squirm in your seat type horror with mad science and biology gone wrong.

Oooh. The Shining. I forgot about that one. As for movies like The Exorcist and The Ring. Once is enough! I like movies that are scary and creepy (that's what makes it fun) but not too disturbing (gross or too dark). That's why I have no interest in seeing The Omen. But, I did finally see Rosemary's Baby. What a let down! That wasn't scary at all. Just aggravating. And The Changeling (George C. Scott) was another let down. I found that boring.

Not exactly A list
I like one of the Bronson movies here The Mechanic (1973)

Here is another Michael Winner horror movie starring Marlon Brando
The fact that I haven't heard of it, suspicious for quality although it is a British film


https://todoelterrordelmundo.blogspo...rohibidos.html
The Nightcomers is a 1971 British horror film directed by Michael Winner and starring Marlon Brando, Stephanie Beacham, Thora Hird, Harry Andrews and Anna Palk. It is a prequel to Henry James' 1898 novella The Turn of the Screw, which had already been adapted into the 1961 film The Innocents. The manor house in the film is Sawston Hall, a 16th-century Tudor manor house in Sawston, Cambridgeshire

Just a few ... I love most horror movies, no matter how bad they are.

Halloween and Halloween: Season of the Witch. Season of the Witch is cheesy fun. "Three more days till Halloween, Halloween, Halloween ... "
13 Ghosts - the original film
House of Dark Shadows and if I'm in the mood for a lesser Dark Shadows film, Night of Dark Shadows. The 2012 Johnny Depp disaster is strictly off the table.
Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein
Night of the Living Dead
The Blair Witch Project
I Walked With A Zombie
Cat People
