top 10 halloween movies/specials?

[turtlefanforever]

You can list more than 10 if you want, and probably will but I find that Halloween always has the best movies and episodes. So go ahead and make yours mine is

1. Halloween town. for obvious reasons Halloween town 2 is pretty good too.
2. treehouse of horror specials
3. Hocus pocus
4. Alvain and the chipmunks meet Frankenstein/ wolfman (tied)
5. mickeys house of villians
6. Grim adventures of billy and mandy Halloween specials
7. scary godmother: Halloween spooktacular
8. Scooby doo and the Ghoul School
9. Under Wraps (tied with) Mom's got a date with a vampire
10. tmnt all hallows thieves

yeah I know I left out the nightmare before Christmas it's loved I get that but had a hard time putting a list together and would watch all these before watching that again. I don't think it's bad it's a good movie.

Other honorable mentions:
Friday the 13th the series: Hellowe'en
regular show Halloween specials, Phantom of the megaplex
Goosebumps Halloween themed episodes/movies namely "the haunted mask", don't look under the bed, ed, edd n eddy's boo haw haw

[Davetello]

I don't have a list but I will always watch All Hallows Thieves as well. As for films, the original Halloween and some of the Child's Play series. Chucky is probably my favourite movie slasher.

I think Treehouse of Horror is always going to be my number one fav special. I can't pick just one I enjoy. I've liked every Treehouse episode I've seen. I own 15 of them, and my better half and I are watching one a weeknight for the next three weeks. We started last night. God, I love October.

[PangolinFeets]

I love fun horror on Halloween! My favs for Halloween are The Thing, Nightmare on Elm's st, Friday the 13th, Pet Cemetary, Return of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Pumpkinhead, It, and a bunch of other monster movies like Godzillas, Gameras, etc.
And maybe some dark comedies like American Psycho and Tales from the Crypt. :)

The Tales from the Crypt television series from HBO is absolutely immense.

Halloween
Halloween 2
Rob Zombie's Halloween
Friday the 13th part 2 I think
A Nightmare on Elm St. Pick one

The Boy Meets World episode And then there was Shawn.


That's all I got.

[pingclang]

I always watch the Howling and Sleepy Hollow on Halloween. The rest of October is me cramming as much horror as possible.

[MrTMNT2012]

If I want a zany Halloween, I'd watch Scooby Doo: The Mystery Begins. If I want a serious Halloween, Saw is a modern classic!

[AT-Man]

If I want a zany Halloween, I'd watch Scooby Doo: The Mystery Begins. If I want a serious Halloween, Saw is a modern classic!

Saw movies have little re-watching value for me. Seen all of them once except for 1 and 2 twice or three times, so I'm gonna marathon them all at some point. But after that I won't probably see them again.

I don't really have a tradition to watch certain movies on Halloween, but I always see the new ones. My only tradition so far has been LOTR and now also Hobbit movies on Christmas. But if I chose my Halloween movies from those I could watch anytime and never get bored, they would probably be:

Evil Dead series
The 'burbs
The Thing
Fall of the House of Usher
The Old Dark House
Braindead
Nosferatu (1979) and Shadow of the Vampire
Tremors
The Innkeepers
Event Horizon
almost any horror movie starring Vincent Price

[ssjup81]

I know I can't make a list of ten things, but here are some things I like to watch every year for Halloween...

The Shining
It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown
The Room (I know, not a real Halloween movie, but it's scary how bad it is lol)
Phantom of the Opera

Wow...that's about it... I really can't think of anything else right off.

[shuriken]

The Crow
Halloween
Any ofthe Nightmare on Elm Streets
Treehouse of horrors are pretty good

We don't watch movies, but we get the Old oooold cartoons from way back. I love the old Disney cartoon The Legend of Sleepy Hollow (1949) (http://ishare.rediff.com/video/entertainment/the-legend-of-sleepy-hollow-1949-disney-masterpieces-full-movie-youtube/7392560).

[blindturtle02]

I love Legend of Sleepy Hollow! I watched the heck out of it when Disney made that classic available in the early 90's. Last time I checked, it was on youtube. They need to drag that one out of the vault again. I was never scared of the headless horseman. He fascinated me instead. I dressed as the 1949 version for Halloween around 91 or so. God, that laugh! Now that was chilling. I'll admit that.

I'm glad they managed to bring the Chipettes for the Wolfman movie. (The movie was made in 2000.) And Brittany had to be a tree for the school play. Complete with holding little branches.

Let's not forget about Rob Paulsen! He played Mr. Rochelle in the movie.

that's just the mystique of the show really. I loved it!

I watch horror movies all year long so adding specific ones to this thread is difficult.

Hannah-Barberra's animated version of "The Halloween Tree" is great for Halloween viewing. "ParaNorman" and Coraline" are good Halloween flicks too. Especially, ParaNorman. It's become one of my favorite animated movies of all time.

"The Monster Squad" makes for a good Halloween flick as well and it's just a damn fun movie. Same with "Halloween 3: Season of the Witch" which is a truly underrated movie.

I loved the Halloween specials Nick would air every Halloween Month, some of my favorites are..

Hey Arnold / Invader Zim / CatDog ( While not a favorite of mine, that one was pretty cool to watch ) Rugrats. Nick had some good Holiday specials at that time.

Cartoon Network's was ok, I'd say Ed, Edd n Eddy Halloween special was a good one though I felt so bad for Edd and Eddy at the end, Ed was a major pain in the butt with that one but over all.

Used to love watching the Scooby Doo marathons :D

Chipmunks Halloween special was fine but not a favorite of mine out of those specials / films. That goes to bum bum bum Chipmunk Adventure.

[turtlefanforever]

Its about that time again!
