Happy October-ween!
 

Always love this month.

Like the US, it's a month of celebration over here, with several of our big festivals (the 10-day Navratras, culminating in Dusshera) coming in October as well.

Since being a part of HDC, October has become a part of revisiting some fantastic classic/modern horror films, re-reading horror classics such as Dracula, Frankenstein, etc., listening to some wonderful spooky music through Neverending Wonder Radio, and generally enjoying the festive season.

So, wishing all of my HDC friends a wonderful October-ween. May the Halloween spirit burn brightly and bring a lot of happiness, joy and prosperity into your lives.

Let's get things started!

You're making me miss NeverendingWonder Radio :(

yee haw...lets do this

Happy Halloween-month :D

I'm one of the few people here in Denmark who actually celebrate Halloween, and people think I'm pretty weird for doing it, but I've always loved it. And it's at this time of the year where I always rediscover just why I got into all this "spooky stuff" in the first place.

I will be watching lots of movies and re-reading lots of Lovecraft in the coming weeks :cool:

The song I requested every year:

perhaps this thread can be merged with this one and stickied for the month

I love this time of the month and it has the most parodied name of any month I think... I like it.

Rocktober, Shocktober, Wartober, Jocktober, Overstocktober...

Seriously though, the weather is great and twice as many friends actually watch horror flicks with me haha.

Let's let this one live on its own merits.

Only fitting.

Happy October, everyone. Let's make this the best Halloween yet. Drink your fill of horror this month.

So love this time of year....

The great Vincent Price and his little friend Alice...

I'm so glad that it's October it's finally cooling off after a long hot and very humid and wet summer, I just love the way that early Autumn feels the air is crisper and fresher to me. I love watching the leaves on the trees turn from green to orange and when the sun shines through the trees it seems as if they're on fire. The world just seems like a better place in October, this month has become more to me than just another 31 days, October to me is a happy and content state of mind. I can't wait to start up all of my Halloween/October traditions. I already have my DVR set to record a ton of movies on TCM, AMC, etc. My fiancee and I are going to a pumpkin patch with my future sister in law this weekend and we get to pick out our first pumpkin of the season. I'm already planning on putting up my decorations this weekend as well and I've already made 3 Halloween related mix CDs to listen to while we decorate and carve pumpkins. Next year I'm even getting married on Halloween to the most patient and loving man I've ever met. The only thing I hate about October is that it's always gone in the blink of an eye so I have to make all 31 days count.

Great post. Hope you have a horror-filled month. :cool:

Started my Horror movie marathon. So far i've watched Dark Night of The Scarecrow and Creature from The Black Lagoon. Tonight, Dracula

Guillermo del Toro directs the opening of this year's Treehouse of Horror. It's beautiful!

That was quality, loved it! :cool:

Here's a blast from the past, a platter that really matters, only the best and by request! It was October 2011, horror.com was bustling and NEW radio was pumping. Halloween reminds me of horror.com as a place vibrant and FUN! No kickstarter panhandlers etc. Take it away Joey!

How about some Burton and Elfman?

Thanks for noticing it! I was afraid it was going to go unnoticed by the entire forum!

Yes! Great choices, guys! Treehouse of Horror, Black Widow, This is Halloween Burton/Elfman, one of the finest modern classical pieces every created: Theme of Edward Sissorhands, and all the rest here as well.

We can't forget this fun one, once again with the wonderful Vincent Price!

And one of my favorite compositions, with one of the most artful openings in horror film.

Checked it out last night with my wife. We loved it. :)

Made this one couple of months back; couldn't able to upload on youtube due to copyright issue from AMC's Walking Dead series.

Name a song that can work for a slasher homage video...how about 'Blow me away' by Breaking Benjamin or Blink 182's 'I miss you'?

Holy crap, Roshiq! I'm really impressed. I love this. You did an exemplary job assembling this video! It's beautiful!

You should get a job as a film editor!

Wow! that's a huge compliment for me. Thanks a lot for appreciating the effort! It all started out some months back when I downloaded a video editing software just for fun, trying to make some videos for some of my favorite Bangladeshi band songs using clips or images from Hollywood movies[:p]. Anyway, I'm really beginning to love this stuffs, it's been a great fun & challange to work on those little details & compile some footage/images and then trying to adjust them with the music & lyrics in a sensible way as much as possible.

Glad you liked it. :)

Every once in a while I have to tune in to remember how fun this internet radio station is, and this is just the season for it. Welcome to Weirdsville Radio features a unique conglomeration of lighthearted and bizarre horror and Halloween themed music and ephemera. Spike Jones, Weird Al, The Munsters, Addams Family, Dickie Goodman, and lots of weird and obscure stuff that will have you scratching your head, including old radio horror movie ads and sound bites. Spotify really, really sucks compared to this. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Just came across this 2 awesome videos on youtube while just searching for some classic 'evil' movie footage...

Here's an article that has a video that identifies most of the references in the treehouse of horror video clip:

I love this time of the year, the horror decorations, costumes, the classics everywhere on T.V. and it one of the few times a year I can convince my wife and kids to watch a scary movie every night of the month. Tomorrow we are going to put up the decorations (I go all out like people do for Christmas).

(We should have a halloween decorations thread)

Isn't this thread good enough for you?

Nice one, Roshiq, great job. :cool:

Love it, I tune in whenever it crosses my mind, so much off the wall stuff that I've never heard before. :cool:

Playing on Weirdsville right now: Bill Buchanan- The Night Before Halloween

Thanks for listening Straker!
