It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown


Some of these are out-and-out kids' movies, but that doesn't mean they suck. It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is a great cartoon for "kids" of all ages, and so is the film The Halloween Tree. And others were added just because they are Halloween themed (not necessarily because they were any good.)

I forgot Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen's sleeper hit Double Double Toil and Trouble. And that should complete my list.

Actually, I just thought of a couple more:

There exists a Cartoon Network Halloween special DVD. But I would not reccommend this at all. There are MANY cartoons on it, but only one of them is Halloween themed, and that is a Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy cartoon. This one cartoon, on the whole DVD, is pretty good (and is a personal favorite of mine, since it includes a slightly bastardized version of the Stingy Jack legend). But the rest of the cartoons are not Halloween related (and some are not even "monster" themed, and you wonder why the hell they were included on the DVD).

Of course, I'm leaving out a bunch of stuff that people here who don't have small children won't be interested in (Nicktoons' Halloween, SpongeBob Halloween, and Barney's Halloween Party to name a few), but I think the list I made is pretty inclusive.

Again, if you think of any that aren't on the list, feel free to add! You may come up with one I haven't seen and will want to run out and rent!

(Sorry for the multiple posts. But I believe I mentioned about a month and a half ago that when the Halloween season rolls around, I'll be "posting like a pile of bitches" ... and, as I've already said, it has started).

Any of the classic Universal monster movies are family-friendly.

FrankenWeenie!

This classic, classic short by Tim Burton is one of my earliest memories of watching a movie. And I do believe it is Halloween-themed or at least Frankenstein-themed.
