Movies Give me your Halloween movie recommendations!

[Smiley Cat]

I'm planning on re-watching "Abigail" this halloween. It's such a good movie, I highly recommend it if you haven't seen it yet. It's kinda like "From Dusk Til Dawn" in some ways.



But what spooky/halloweeny movies are your favourites? ???

I'm mostly into the older, campier stuff personally.

Anything Herschell Gordon Lewis (throw a dart at the list, personal recommendation is Two Thousand Maniacs ( 1964))
Any of Dario Argento's earlier movies (Deep Red (1975) is my personal suggestion)
Drive-In Massacre (1976)
The Driller Killer (1979)
Messiah of Evil (1973)
Braindead (1992)

Pretty much anything you could find on those "50 Classic Horror Movie" packs you could find everywhere this time of year in the 2000s and early 2010s

There's some newer stuff that has that sort of classic feel too without being an outright ripoff, like X and by extension Pearl.

RedLetterMedia's Best of The Worse has a bunch of them.

Mandy:

One of my favourite films of all time. It was the reponsable for all the hype we have around Nicolas Cage currently! The first half is super slow and quirky, psychedelic also, then something happens and it turns itselft into a slasher with traits of Evil Dead. Good cosmic horror and also an interesting love story, i'd say.

/\ lol, I am definitely gonna check that out at some point. It looks crazy!

I think Opera might be my favorite Argento. Although I really dig a lot of his flicks.

I think about Titane a lot, although I've only watched it once. Because it was kind of like a fever dream, and it's a fun thing to think upon.

I cannot send enough love into the universe for I Saw the TV Glow existing. I think it might be the first trans horror flick by a trans person. It's existential dread, not gore-porn or anything like that. But I really felt touched by its sad ways, and have not only flipped back to watch it again but have told many others about it as a means to spread the word.

GL finding fun flicks, and ty to the others who posted stuff cause horror is my favorite genre =)!
