Halloween movies to start the season?
What movies do you start off the Halloween season with.
I like to begin with films a little less seasonal in tone and work up toward my Halloween marathon just before the holiday. This year starting off with some newer films. Unfriended Gallows Blair Witch The Boy Purge I and II Krampus Ouija Visit The Forest Oculus Stephen King's better films (Pet Sematary, Cujo, Dreamcatcher....and, especially terrifying this year, IT) Thinking I should have an politics-themed night given the election. What is the best horror film involving American politics? I came up with They Live but seems a little subtle. Have a great Halloween season.

Love seeing this kind of topic, because it means it's THAT time of year!
I approach my Hallowday viewing the same way, MM. It's not until about two weeks before All Hallows' Eve that I dig into the deeper seasonal stuff. Right now, I'm eyeing some old 50's era monster flicks. The Blob (58), The Deadly Mantis, The Giant Claw, Tarantula...I always gravitate toward this kind of thing as a kickoff to the holiday. As the season goes on, I get more into the bloody, gory, psycho jive we all love so much. Political horror? Look no further than The Tripper. That's a fun slasher flick! And how about Blue Sunshine, Jeff Lieberman's bizzare acid flashback freak show? And a Happy Hallowday to you Michael Myers! I know this season means so, so much to you...and your family.

Yes I would think in your home The Curse of Frankenstein is reserved for prime time.
