THE SCI-FI channel will be showing flicks such as:
Warlock
Puppetmaster
Psycho
The Frighteners
Waxwork
Exorcist 2 & 3
Wishmaster & Phantasm sequels

Not that I'll be tuning into that crappy channel.
The lineup looks pretty good this year...considering I'll never forget the time a few years back when absoultely NO station was showing any type of scary movie *at all*. I was so peeved.

[The Burgomaster]

That's a decent line-up. I haven't seen JESSE JAMES MEETS FRANKENSTEIN'S DAUGHTER or MONSTER FROM THE SURF since I was a kid.

I recently ordered CAPTAIN KRONOS: VAMPIRE HUNTER on DVD.

[Scott]

Thanks Susan. I'm going to print this post and put it on the refrigerator.

[raj]

Definitely time to warm up the old vcr.  Can't wait to see the Billy the Kid & Jesse James flicks.

[Scott]

Did you know that both Billy the Kid Vs. Dracula and Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter are directed by the same director.

[StatCat]

Thanks, I'm interested in taping: Monster from the Surf (think it's also called the Beach Girls and the Monster if I remember), Billy the Kidd and Jesse James monster movies. Those are definitely the oddballs out of the bunch. Weird how b-movies fan think alike. If I'm not mistaken doesn't Monster from the Surf feature some band in a beach part? Anyone know who the band is? I remember seeing it on MST3k once, well that part. Wonder if it's a real band.

[jmc]

I think that was THE HORROR OF PARTY BEACH.

It looks like a repeat of last year, decent movies leading up to Halloween but the same crap they played last year on the day itself--Halloween sequels but not the original film.  

Oh well, AMC has deteriorated so much in the past couple of years that I'm not that surprised.  I wonder what's on TCM.  

Last year the Encore action and mystery channels had some pretty good stuff too.

[Susan]

>>I wonder what's on TCM. <<

On halloween night it's a Frankenstein marathon
Frankenstein
The Bird of
The son of
..must be destroyed

I think that wednesday "Freaks" comes on, I wanna catch that again

"one of us..one of us.."

[onionhead]

Why is it that when I posted a similar message about this same subject I was greeted with negativism?
It must be a hair thing . . . .

Hmm, I don't think I've ever seen The Bird of Frankenstein...

[Susan]

When I typo I really typo.
Remind me someday to tell you about my cat emissions test...

[Scott]

These are the ones that I haven't seen yet:

Pinata: Survival Island
Monster from the Surf
Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter
The The Funhouse
The Dunwich Horror
Billy the Kid Vs. Dracula
Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter

Most of them are playing at around 2 a.m.

[jmc]

My wife and I have been really disappointed across the board by the cable channels this October.  I miss when many of them would play scary movies all month long, not just for the few days leading up to Halloween.   It's like they aren't observing Halloween at all.

[Scott]

Yep jmc. We said the same thing the past couple nights. And I've been hoping for a total 24 Horror Channel someday. They have specialty channels for all the other genres except Horror. Even the Sci-Fi channel doesn't play the good old Sci-Fi ones

[JohnL]

>And I've been hoping for a total 24 Horror Channel someday.

Actualy, I've heard that there is one. I forget where I read it, possible TV Guide...
