Quintessential Halloween Films
 
What are the films that you guys would consider "must-sees" for the Holloween season? Films that get you in the mood, whether it be from fear or sheer enjoyment.

For me, both The Evil Dead (I & II) and House of 1000 Corpses get me in the mood the most.

Disney's "the Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad." is another one that is required viewing in October. the way Disney useta use color is amazing. plus, this is an amazing combo of being scary and funny... something Disney useta be masters of.
