I was thinking about all of the films and TV shows and books and animated features that I enjoy watching during this month of October and decided to make a thread just for them. These are the films and TV specials that I think of when I think of Halloween and are all a big part of why I find Fall to be so magical. It's my favorite time of the year.
First, the Halloween Tree. The animated cartoon and the book by Ray Bradbury are both very, very good. Wonderfully dark and full of Halloween spirit and Carapace Clavicle Moundshroud is maybe one of my favorite character names ever.
Intro scene -
Something Wicked This Way Comes, also from Bradury. I prefer the film to the book but again they are both very good. YOU'LL NOT WEAR MY SADNESS FOR GLAD RAGS. For a children's film it's justimpossiblydark.
Whole film, not great resolution.
Halloween is Grinch Night. Complete and total Halloween flavored acid trip. Starts kinda slow and then goes completely and utterly off the goddamn rails.
Full cartoon, good quality.
Pet Sematary. Again, I prefer the book and try to read it each fall but the film is still quite good. It's also the movie that Denise Crosby left TNG for. Really, really kicks the audience in the teeth and then does it again and then a few more times.
Just a clip from the film of Gage flying a kite -
Trick R Treat. It is a contemporary horror film but it's just got great Halloween flavor. The film is divided into a series of interconnected stories that take place on the same Halloween night. It's violent, fun, dark, and a very good time.
Trailer.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show. If you put a gun to my head and told me to name my favorite film or you'd spray cherry pie all over the wall behind me this is what I'd name. I remember catching this for the first time many years ago on VH1 on Halloween night. One of the few films I actually care to own a physical copy of.
