Such a quality cartoon. Monster Squad is also a good Halloween movie to share.

Only one way to kill a wolfman.

Those kids calling their teacher a faggot is the kind of realistic dialogue you don’t see in movies anymore.

It might be the best depiction of the Universal Monsters. I know that Dracula is my personal favorite of all the different takes that have been done.

Vampire Bats (2005) is a great lil horror flick.

The scariest part is it getting made.

WWAWD The Mist (2007)? Haven’t seen it in a decade but the ending kind of rules. No idea if it holds up in general.

Also WWAWD 100.3 WKIT - Bangor's Rock and Roll Station?

It's okay. Not an all time classic, but fine. CGI is bad, some of the characters are too cartoonish. The bar is pretty low for "modern" horror. I'd definitely watch it if I caught it coming on, but wouldn't go out of my way to see it.

Watched Exorcist III. It's a solid flick that I'm sure was unfairly judged at the time of it's release. It's a rare horror flick that emphasizes character development and writing while still managing to be pretty unsettling at times. Very well directed and written and as others mentioned it has probably one of the best jump scares I've ever seen in a film. It's pacing is perhaps a bit too slow in the first half and doesn't have the emotional core that the first film has and the third act goes a bit off the rails, but it's still a really enjoyable film and 99% sure it's better than the new one coming out this weekend. Give it a watch.

Roseanne and Home Improvement Halloween episodes were always good times.

Family Matters was silly fun

Only one way to kill a wolfman.

I learned the other night that Uncle Rico played the Wolfman in Monster Squad.

And Scully and Muller's boss was Horace Pinker in Shocker.

I watched this for the first time last year. I'm glad I did, because a few times before I tried watching it and thought the red headed fag was insufferable, but he actually rules and is perfect for the part. I'll probably watch it again this year.

One of the best slow burner movies I've seen if I'm being completely fawking honest with ya.

I forgot that until I read your post.

The Gate was a fun one. Saw that in the theater.

 

[Coonskin]

I always liked the reboot of The Hills Have Eyes from 2006

People under the stairs is a goofy creepy movie.

Maximum Overdrive is a great corny scary movie for this month. Might watch that tonight. Maybe dinner later.

"The Wretched" is a pretty decent modern horror film. Horror is a weird genre; it's maybe my favorite film genre but 90% of it is absolute fucking garbage by any measure

 

[TheGhostOfAbeVigoda]

I always liked The Ghost and Mr. Chicken when I was a little feller. I was all in wit da Don Knotts. "Attaboy, Luther!"

 

[Dummy Gaynuts]

Also "the Night House" is a good modern horror film
