    What are you guys watching to get you into the Halloween spirit?

    From Dusk till Dawn is on in the background right now.

    I've never gotten much out these types of movies...they fail to scare me and are just silly. But I did just see a great one. "Dark Shadows." It doesn't try to be serious and is therefore a comedy. But it is loyal to the original soap (which we were forced to watch by my older sister), and I really enjoyed it. A fun "scary" movie for the whole family.

    I remember running home from grade school to watch Dark Shadows in the afternoon...1966

    ( I was in sixth grade...and the show was in B/W )

    One of my favorites is "ALIEN" the first one. I had read the book before seeing it. Like all movies not 10% as good as the book, but good none the less.

    If they could make Stephen King books into movies that came anywhere close NOBODY could watch them....SCARE THE CR** OUTA YA.....:eek:

    The human imagination is what makes books better than any movie...

    Boy SW01 you nailed that one. I have had the bajeabers scared out of me by King books. But the movies all suck.

    I've been wanting to see it. Good to know I can do it with the kiddos running around.

    I love the movie but never read it. I'll have to find a copy.
