DVDs for Halloween

Here's a list of films to get in the mood for Halloween:


The first section is lighter films, lots of comedies dealing with the usual monsters, nothing too scary.

The second section is more serious movies but no hardcore horror.


Trilogy of Terror
Karen Black
The last story is the best!

Young Frankenstien
Gene Wilder, Marty Feldman
“It's Alive!”

Poltergiest
“Don't go into the light!”

Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Johnny Depp
Classic creepy tale

Death Becomes Her
Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn, Isabella Rosselini
Women who want to live forever but with nasty side-effects

Cirque du Freak
John C. Reilly

Classic, quintessential story of Dracula. Bad special fx, but still fun
