What horror movies are you watching this month?

Me too, first time ever on DVD. I mostly watch it on AMC and never catch all of it, so it was nice to see it start to finish.

That's funny, till I got it on Blu-Ray, I would do the same thing - catch chunks of it here and there on TV till I saw the whole movie.

To be honest, the nudity surprised me.

Just got done watching the original Nightmare on Elmstreet this afternoon on Spike. Just wanted to watch to see Johnny Depp get done in.

I'm trying to watch as much horror as I can. So far I've seen:

--Halloween (original and remake)
--Halloween III
--The Exorcist
--Exorcist III
--The Conjuring
--Scanners (not horror, per se)
--Spider Baby
--Amityville Horror (original and remake)
--Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell
--Virgin Witch (BORING!)
--Wicker Man (original)
--Carrie

That's all I can recall at the moment.

House Of Wax
Pit And The Pendulum

I watched Bloody Birthday (1981) tonight. Which is great if you're looking for a fun 80s thing. There's a whole scene where a very young Julie Brown dances around naked. The plot is about these three kids who go on a homicidal rampage because they were born during an eclipse. So it's crazy, but the killer kids are a lot of fun.

I take my traditional week off around Halloween to enjoy all the monster movies on television leading up to that night and essentially recharge my batteries. Yesterday I watched the original Friday the 13th parts I and II. It was funny seeing Kevin Bacon running around in skimpy bathing drunks. His death scene is always a blast. I love watching Bacon fry. Will probably watch Pt III today and then start my Halloween marathon leading up to tomorrow night. And yep, I watch Halloween III as well. It might be the odd bird in the series, but it has it's own dated appeal. It will just take a week to get that reworked 'London bridges' song out of my head.

I really should compile a list, because I've watched a TON this year. Last night's feature was The Monster Club. I feel like I should have enjoyed it more than I did. I found the 80s musical interludes too distracting, but it was okay.

Yeah, it's unofficially the last from the Amicus team but it's not their best. Leans too heavy on the comedy and the music dated it instantly. I still like it but it could have been better.

Watched that recently as well. Oh, and My Bloody Valentine, which was actually pretty decent. I've been watching horror movies for a couple months now, so I'll add a few more that were viewed pre-October.

--The House of the Devil
--Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, which was an absolute pleasure!
--Trick 'r Treat, actually I watched this the other day and forget to mention it.

I've heard quite a bit about this movie this Halloween season. I had never heard of it before. Did TCM show it? If so, I missed it.

Also, was "The House That Dripped Blood" an Amicus film? It's got Lee, Cushing and Pitt (plus Denholm Elliot and Jon Pertwee) but I know it's not Hammer. I don't recall seeing Amicus in the credits...

Comedy/horror is so hit and miss with me - Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil was the exception! Totally fun - and Alan Tudyk was a stand out.

It is, one of their better portmanteau films IMO although it's a little goofy too.

I wasn't expecting much, but the acting was so pitch perfect I just loved it.

Yeah, but I can't help but love "The Cloak" with Pertwee and Ingrid Pitt's cleavage. Cushing's part is of course good, and Lee actually gets to play the hero in his segment.
