Title: 100 Best Halloween Movies
Post by: Chainsawmidget on September 04, 2010, 06:37:23 PM

No, Mr. Myers hasn't been in that many movies. This is all about the movies that best fit the holiday. Now they don't have to be set on Halloween, they don't have to be horror, they just need to be movies that have that certain Halloween feel. You know the type. (If not, pretend you do or everybody else is going to laugh at you.)

Just to get things started off, a personal favorite of mine...

(http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/1311/jackov.jpg)

1. Jack-O

It's a movie with a killer pumpkinheaded man going around terrorizing people on Halloween. It's got Linnea Quigley taking a shower and an appearance by John Carradine long after he was dead. Despite being a mid 90s movie it feels like vintage 80s cheese.

What more could you ask for?

It was a toss-up.

I gave it to Jack-O because I knew that if I didn't mentioned Trick R Treat that somebody else would.

This is a great movie, the only thing that I did not like was the ending. The movie was scary and good affects, but the ending was weak. I agree that this should be on the list.

Also isn't there a Trick or Treat with Gene Simmons and Ozzy? Never mind, I was getting Trick R Treat and Trick or Treat mixed up.

Later,

John

I did not see this on the list yet. But 28. Phatoms and 29. Event Horizon should be on here.

31. Curse of The Cat People.

It qualifies for both Christmas and Halloween - It takes place around Christmas time, but the main plotline is driven in part by a verbal telling of the Headless Horseman legend - plus it's a Val Lewton ghost story -

Actually, the first theatrical film to take place in a haunted house was--apparently--a film called "Wee Lady Betty" from August 19, 1917, with actress Bessie Love in the title role.

Of course, if you are talking about films of any length, the first film to take place in a haunted house was the film short "A Night of Thrills" from December 13, 1914 with Lon Chaney, sr. as the star. Unfortunately, this film is listed as being totally lost with no copies in existance.
