more halloween crapola. Movies

Any classics or whatever that folks like to cozy down to on Halloween night after the kids have stopped ringing the damn bell?

I was really really REALLLY Hoping to get my hands on an a copy of Arsenic and Old lace this year but no such luck. =/
If any of you have not seen it, I highly recommend you stop what you're doing, get out, find a copy, netflix it, see if it's on Youtube and sit down and enjoy.
Cary Grant is hilarious in it and it's just a great black comedy with tons of laughs all around.
The last 45 minutes are the best.
If you dont dislike old movies, get out and give a look!

In the meanwhile, I've figured on going comedy this year and gonna' break down with some Abbot and Costello meets Frankenstein, Abbot and Costello in Hold that Ghost and maybe Abbot and Costello in "Time of their lives."

usually I do whatever new scary pic is available on demand or dvd as of recent and watch my old copy of Night of the living dead, figured I'd go upbeat this year.

Arsenic and Old Lace is a great movie. It's weird that you can't find it. Have you tried your local library?

My only watching plans this year is to watch the premier of The Walking Dead on AMC.

y'know.. I kind'a forgot that libraries lend movies too now.

I should go out and get me a library card again.
Hopefully they've forgotten about the books I owe from the 70's.

...DONT LAUGH!

Shhh... no one remind Mount that it's tomorrow, m'kay? He doesn't need to think he's missing nothing. >.>

I think with everything happening today, the only "thing" he is thinking about is YOU. Which is as it should be.

Congratulation Vampy! I am truly happy for you!

Loved Arsenic and Old Lace. My high school did it one year and it was a blast. The movie was neat too. Gotta love homicidal little old ladies, with the best of intentions XD

"Zombie Strippers"

That is all. Best zombie movie next to "Fido".

^_^

I think I could argue against that one Willow. There were some definite spots Zombie Strippers failed in its campiness. Which is a feat when you have Robert Engulund in the cast.

Well true, but Seriously shooting pool balls out of your cooter. The only thing that would have been better had they moved to bowling balls next.

Fido was pretty great. Billy connely was awesome but then again he's always awesome.

I got to watch Nightmare before Christmas at lease once by midnight on Halloween.

I usually watch Nightmare Before Xmas just after Hallowe'en, as that's when the movie takes place. Then I watch Rudolph (Rankin-Bass Rule!!!) the Red Nosed Reindeer. I have the whole collection and watch them (one a week). It's one of the few ways I can get into the Xmas spirit anymore.

I do the same thing, Roro.
Only thing is I took a christmas story out of rotation coz of the retarded marathon.

I also do Nightmare before Christmas right before Christmas aswell. I like to think o it as my catch all end of the year holiday movie.
As for Christmas I tend to do various versions of A Christmas Carol. Whether it be Scrooged to The muppet's Christmas Carol.
I don't really make it a point to watch other Christmas movies because I know at one point or another they will all be on tv before Christmas hits for me to catch on.

The only copy of "A Christmas Carol" we have is the 1950's version starring Alastair Sim. In black and white. We love that version, it's one of the few that's true to the original book.

I LOVE that at the end, Gonzo says "if you liked the movie you should read the book!"

Always going for literacy. I LOVE Jim Henson.

The sad thing is that it took us till the second page to derail a thread. I think we might be slipping.

we must try harder.

We were actually interested in the topic discussed. Therefore it didn't derail.

Now then....
