Seven great films to watch on Halloween
- The Exorcist (1973) Seen as a huge step forward in the horror movie industry in the 70’s, “The Exorcist” is still chilling today. Telling the story of a young girl possessed by a demonic entity, the film provides an impeccably crafted story.
- Evil Dead (1981)Reaching the status of a cult classic, “The Evil Dead” is easily the best cabin-in-the-woods scenario. Watch Bruce Campbell wage grotesquely-funny war against evil forces and entertainment is ensured.
- The Omen (1976) Another film about a possessed child that struck gold. A series of mysterious deaths occur, all connected to the child of an ambassador. This chilling tale is a perfect pick for Halloween night.
- Halloween (1978) Famous for its theme song and psychotic slasher, “Halloween” is a classic horror film. Its commercial success prompted seven sequels, although none lived up to the original.
- Night of the Living Dead (1968) Pioneering the zombie genre, “Night of the Living Dead” is a staple of all the horror genres. Depicting the struggle to hide from bloodthirsty zombies, it will forever remain a truly spooky tale.
- It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966) For those more interested in the fun and traditional side of Halloween, this Peanuts cartoon will make for a relaxing night of consuming candy.
- Hocus Pocus (1993) As far as Disney productions go, “Hocus Pocus” is a good movie – for Halloween standards. Silly and upbeat, this movie is for those who can’t stomach horror.
