alix1929 Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 BOO! If you were allowed to program the movies on Halloween night (say from 6:00 pm to 1:00 am), what would you show and why?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenwal34 Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 alix, I'd start off with The Haunting[original],followed by The Wolfman, Night Monster, The Mummy{Karloff],Isle of the Dead,and The Cat People.There are many more,but the above represents movies that still provides chills for me.

therealfuster Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 a chronological history of the horror film, starting with early silents like "Vampyr" and moving through things like "The Old Dark House" or even oddball things like "The Man Who Laughs", moving through the Universal years, one hit wonders like "Carnival of Souls" and end in modern day after passing through the Hammer and Amicus days. I might need a whole week to actually do all these films justice, as there are so many good ones. I would make byways into foreign horror along the way, and salute Bava, Polanski and Japanese cinema as in "Kwaidan" and France too. England has had its share of good horror, with films like "Dead of Night" et cetera. So it would be a chronological, world tour of horror with many pitstops and offbeat oddities like the silent "Dementia" [the one spotlighted in The Blob, and not Coppola's #13], and even something made for tv like "Trilogy of Terror."
