Why don't you watch Scary Movie? That's a classic.

La Sortie des usines Lumière. Can't get much more classic than that.

"What should I watch..."

The answer, regardless of the rest of the question, is always 'Robocop'.

Nightmare Before Christmas

I always watch the original Night of the Living Dead on Halloween. That is one solid movie.

I can't stand Halloween, but every fall my family always watches Something Wicked This Way Comes.

"First of all, it was October..."

Poltergeist it is what I did last year at midnight, and if you are walking through the quad at 3am on the way back to your dorm, it makes it that much more fun.

 

[MacNut]

Glitter or Shazam.

 

[scotty96LSC]

Exorcist.

 

[neilg]

High School Musical 1, 2 or, it appears, 3.

Terrifying...

 

[iJohnHenry]

Carrie.

How can you beat Stephen King???

A double bill of Frankenstein and The Bride of Frankenstein.

 

[vanmacguy]

Debbie does Dallas again.
