Starry Eyes: one of my favorite recent horror movies and, oh, so relevant re: Weinstein. Wonderful performances and a soundtrack to die for.
Baskin: delicious body horror that is as conceptually complex as it is fascinating and beautiful. Not for the faint of heart.

Night of the Living Dead (1990 remake)
&
Fright Night (1985)
Never seen the Dead remake but heard good things. Grew up with Fright Night as a Halloween favorite and looking forward to the rewatch.

Remake is actually really decent, and some really good scenes

Interesting story, the first Halloween movie i watched was the 4th one, and it's still stuck in my head.
Might just watch Suspiria again later tonight and pair it with The Shining. A nice one-two punch of my favorite horror films.
I watched 31 horror/monster/horror-themes movies this October. Every 31st october a friend, my brother and i watch a horror movie together. This year it was my friends time to choose a movie and he picked Hellraiser wich he had never seen. For me it must have been 10 years since i last saw it and damn that transformation scene is out of this world! Amazing effects. Good movie overall but the best ones i've seen this halloween-season(of the ones i had never seen before) must have been The Void, OG Nosferatu and The Devil's Candy. I had also not seen the last three Chucky-movies and i gotta say Seed of Chucky was crazy entertaining! Loved it!
just watch 3 and call it a night ;)
in all seriousness, this is one of the first years I'm not rewatching the entire Halloween franchise + Zombie's films.
granted, I never watch them in a single day. I start the marathon a few days before Halloween. I picked up the bluray box set years ago and some of the extended features are legit af.
Do yourself a favor and see Curse of Chucky and Cult of Chucky. it amazes me what sort of rebound the franchise has had with those two in particular, and it's also really continuity focused.
Not watching anything myself, but wanted to bring this classic up.
Not a bad choice if you just want something silly. How can you say no to Ernest, am I right?
As for actual scary/creepy movies, the Saw movies are some of my friends' favorites.
Yesss this is my pick too.
I linked to a list in my post and i saw them. I had only seen up to Bride of Chucky so now i watched all seven of them. Didn't like Curse all that much but Cult was really good! And yeah, the ongoing story from the first one with all the crazy stuff that happend in Bride and Seed blending together is really cool. and it helps that they still have the same writer.
Funny, both of those movies where screened all over Sweden in theatres tonight http://i.imgur.com/qFrgmgu.png
Just went through Train of Busan to finish up my little horror watching list this month, and I thought it was fitting to end it with this movie, since I started with the original Night of the Living Dead back on the 1st.
Man that highly enjoyable and packed one hell of a punch at the end. Great stuff when it came to the zombies too.
Also, Kind of funny seeing this and Night of the Living Dead as bookends for my list in a particular way (out of a few).

Both pretty much have a similar situation at the end with different outcomes when the survivors are encountered by others. In Night of the Living Dead, Ben survives the night, but ends up being killed when someone mistakes him for a zombie. In Train to Busan, Soo-an and Seong-kyeong were about to be killed by soldiers, but Soo-an starts singing Aloha 'Oe (which I really lost it here), and thus the soldiers realized they were survivors.
I've got a 3 movie line up tonight, of ones I love but haven't seen in a while
edit: Train to Busan is exceptional.
- The Thing
- Cabin in the Woods
- Evil Dead 2

Having an issue watching any horror movies that I really want to see so just going to watch stranger things.
Though for anybody that wants to watch a really scary movie should watch the wailing. Best horror movie I've seen since the vvitch.

I'm watching 28 Days Later now and will follow it with 28 Weeks Later, love those movies. Pity they never made a third one though I live in hope.
Night almost over and haven't watched a single Halloween movie all month.
Maybe i'll squeeze in some Courage the Cowardly Dog before the day's done.

Wife and I watched Poltergeist (1982) and we both enjoyed it. I didn't think it was that scary except for the clown, but it was creepy. The special effects are definitely outdated, which took me out of some scenes, but I can see how it scared people back in the day. I liked The Exorcist and The Shining better.
The Shining is top tier and will continue to hold up, poltergeist is really fun though (I agree about the clown part) still it holds up in it's own campy way (because it's pre CG era mostly)
I watched a bunch this month, but Halloween was Frankenstein/Bride of Frankenstein and Halloween 1-2.

Out of all those, I've seen Hush, The Descent, and Trick R' Treat. I had Bone Tomahawk on a watch list for a while now, might see it in a few days.
Bone Tomahawk is probably the least 'horror' of all of those, but boy is it horrific in parts. If you're looking for more, my co-editor wrote up his picks as well, here they are:
10. Coherence
9. Eden Lake
8. Unfriended
7. The House Of The Devil
6. You're Next
5. Cabin In The Woods
4. Evil Dead
3. The Crazies
2. The Guest
1. The Collector

I've probably seen 5 movies from this list, but the Collector is a movie I keep getting requests from friends to watch.
This is a cool blog. Definitely going to watch some of these (and some from other posts on there).

Trying to find time to watch the new season is proving to be difficult for me. As well as trying to avoid spoilers was a challenge.
I hear ya.
I was looking forward all year to the 27th, but I just hadn't had the time to watch yet. Last week (and the week before) was hectic with college and then we got three puppies on Sunday. I'm probably just gonna watch an episode or two a day rather than binging the whole thing.
And yeah, I know what you mean about the spoilers. :( I tend to listen to instrumental pieces on Youtube while creatively writing, and I had Batman Begins OST on play, on the sidebar I was recommended an FMV (fanmade music video) of Stranger Things and the thumbnail featured two kids (won't say who) and the background set made it obvious as to what was going on. I was a bit ticked since I would've loved to be surprised with that on the show.
That being said, I wish you luck avoiding spoilers and I hope you will be able to watch soon. :)

I really don't like to binge watch unless it's show I don't mind knowing the story in detail. I also wish you luck as well :)
