What movies do you watch to get in the Halloween mood?

[Christmasy Britty 2,553]

Hocus Pocus, The Nightmare before Christmas, anything with Vincent Price, Halloweentown, Halloween, spooky horror movies generally

[El Duderino 879]

I know not everyone likes it, but I love the Van Helsing movie with Hugh Jackman. I also like Nightmare Before Christmas and other movies like that. 

[Denim&Venöm 19,198]

The Crow. That's the only movie I need.

[CaptainDoubloon 856]

Lately I've been thinking about wanting to watch Hocus Pocus and The Halloween Tree.

[Megas 27,743]

I waste my Halloween watching Treehouse of Horror and playing games rather than watching movies 

 

I do watch Hocus Pocus if it's on though

Halloween III: Season Of The Witch

Here are some films I like to watch at Halloween:

 

• Halloween (1978)
• Halloween 3 (1982)
• Pumpkinhead (1988)
• Scream (1996)
• Sleepy Hollow (1999)
• Dracula (1992)
• Satan’s Little Helper (2005)
• Trick 'r Treat (2007)

 

I like the films to either take place during halloween or feel very... halloween-atmospheric.. Pumpkinhead, Sleepy Hollow and Dracula are perfect examples of what I mean.

Just look at this example pic from Pumpkinhead: http://diaboliquemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Pumpkinhead_9.jpg

or from sleepy hollow: http://www.overduereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/SH-Sets.png

 

just ..perfect

 

Follow these recommendations and you'll have an awesome halloween movie night

Scary Godmother. I can't help it, I think the films are cute and I LOVE watching them when I can...My parents hate them, so I have to wait until I'm home alone. XD

[CT-1138 3,182]

Why, the Halloween movies, of course!

[CheeryFox 23,822]

Mostly werewolf / werecreatures I like to watch. And some dank '80s slasher feels. 

[MLPFanatic34 3,234]

Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline, Corpse Bride, Casper, the Paranormal Activity movies, ParaNorman, Hocus Pocus, Monster House, Donnie Darko, really any scary or entertaining fright flick.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,685]

The Blair Witch Project and The Fog (The Original( are by far my favorite super spooky films for Halloween. Both movies have a very dread filled atmosphere, the subtleties of The Blair Witch Project are terrifying and the soundtrack in the Fog is horrific. The music alone in that movie fills me with a sense of dread.

Hi Everfree,

 

Since Halloween/Nightmare Night is upon us I am planning to make a list of scary movies to watch as I enjoy this bushel of candy that I bought with a few other friends. So can anyone help me out on what films to watch?

[gamecubeguy214 2,512]

If you haven't already, watch the three Insidious movies.

[Kenshiro 13,493]

Paranormal Activity - The Ghost Dimension =) '''

[Moony the Cat 3,702]

I personally would suggest you Amityville 1992 - Its about Time, because of its unique theme and cool special effects. ( you dont have to watch the previous Amityville Movies, to understand this one...only remember : The Amityville House and everything that comes from it, is bad, thats all you need to know )

 

Also the three Cube Movies " Cube " , " Cube 2 : Hypercube " and " Cube Zero " are all very interesting Movies, with unique ideas.

 

And the two Silent Hill Movies, because the " Otherworld "( which normal people would call, hell ) in this movies is awesome 

 

Oh yeah, FREDDY VS JASON!!! Best horror movie in my opinion   But that could just be me.

 

That would be my suggestions for you.

[Mesme Rize 15,685]

Halloween (the original from 1978)

Nightmare on Elm Street (the original from 1985)

Poltergeist

Dawn of the Dead

Carrie

The Evil Dead movies

Scream

The Shining

 

These are from the top of my head.

[green 331]

Winnie the Pooh! Cause in reality, talking stuffed bears who'll put you at risk to get honey is kinda terrifying.

[Raritas 6,820]

Hey @@Bored2death, this topic would be better suited in the Media Discussion section, moving it there for you.

 

In reply to the question, I'm not a massive horror fan, but if you want cheap guaranteed scares go for Paranormal Activity, as the others suggested. There's also classics like Alien and good old Exorcist, if you want some good oldies  

[Spark Thunderbass 1,441]

Here are my suggestions.

 

- Any of the Friday The 13th films

- Christine

- The Car (1977)

[Buttonmash1973 1,026]

 

Monster House from 2006.

[SpectraDust 149]

Hocus pocus! I absolutely adore that film! And I only watch it at Halloween so it's one of the best parts of my year!
