Mine are

Mothan Prophesies
Halloween remake (rob zombie)
The Changeling (1980s)
The Haunting (90s tv movie not the one with Cathering Zeta Jones)

I recently remember one that my brother and sister used to watch when i was about 6 that was called The White Lady. I remember the boy being locked in the school and the ghost of the little girl coming in and singing 'Have you ever seen a dream, walking...well i did' probably not creepy now but i was when i was little.

Please tell me yours.

Live the changeling with George c Scott. I just bought this in dvd. Also love the 60s film the Haunting. Plus the classic 1930 Dracula.

I watched Halloween Kiss on Netflix - very B movie, but very cheesy, watchable romance, good fun.

So far we've watched:

Hocus Pocus
The Witches of Eastwick

Still to go:

Practical Magic
The Craft

The Burbs is a bit of an 80s family classic!

Halloween (1978)

Beaverdam100 · 10/10/2020 20:29

Have any of you seen Dr Sleep which is the shining sequel? It is an amazing horror.

OP posts:
goose1964 · 10/10/2020 20:32

For me The Nightmare before Christmas which I've already watched
I think it's called haunted house, but it's a cartoon about a house that is really unhappy
Paranormal

No horror films I'm too much of a wuss.

goose1964 · 10/10/2020 20:33

I hate autocorrect Paranorman

Oysterbabe · 10/10/2020 20:34

Carrie
Coraline
The Blair Witch Project

Grendalsmum · 10/10/2020 20:35

Sean Of The Dead was the post trick or treating staple with us - and a very 80s offering called Trick Or Treat ( small metalhead accidentally raises a demon and spends the rest of the film trying to get rid of it again ) Coraline, Wallace and Gromit and the Wererabbit and Lost Boys.
