Carrying off what Liz posted about...
At work today I got the delightful task of updating the "Have You Seen" board. Unlike most weeks when we're given a list of 20 movies to pick from, all 12 of our "have you seen?" movies were chosen by myself and another employee. All movies, of course, were Halloween-y. So, I give you...
HAVE YOU SEEN?
1. Monster House
2. An American Werewold in London
3. The Frighteners
4. The Lost Boys
5. The Faculty
6. The Devil's Rejects
7. The Haunting
8. The Nightmare Before Christmas
9. Idle Hands
Unfortuneately I can't seem to remember 10, 11, and 12. Probably because of my insomnia, but they were good choices nevertheless.
I think Halloween might be my favorite holiday. Of course, I'll say that as each holiday creeps around, but Halloween IS fun. You can't help but enjoy the movies, the costumes, the t.v. specials. Most importantly, you can't help but appreciate all that is Halloween by the amount of money dentists will make in the weeks to come.
Genre wise -- HORROR is my favorite. Campy, new-age, bloody, spoof, etc. All of it is awesome. Michael Myers is my favorite, which was why I was so quick to jump on with the fun fact of the day in Izzika's post. I'm looking forward to seeing Rob Zombie's version when it comes to DVD. 'Till then, I'll stick to the classics...
... House of the Dead?
No, not a classic. Funny, though.

House of the Dead... that can be your guilty pleasure. Rob Zombie's version of Halloween was very nice. I won't give anything away because you haven't seen it, but I will say that 1. I heard my roommate having sex last night and it was literally 1.25 seconds... 2. I think it is equally as great as the original, considering I have only seen the Rob Zombie movie once, it has the potential- with more views- to be better. 3. It goes into Michael's past more which makes him seem more human, which in turn makes the evil he becomes more freaky.
I LOVE the movies you chose to put up on the wall!!!!!!!!!! All of them are amazing. So thank you for enlightening other movie renters to the genre and amazement that is HORROR.
