This week I'm screening Alien and Nightmare on Elm Street. The below have been coming up in my comments so let's get a vote going!

If I may suggest an alternate, the original 1992 'Candyman.' Just rewatched it tonight and oh boy does it hold up. Not a manic and gratuitous slasher film, but an eerie and beautiful focus on trauma (with scares). Also, I haven't seen any other reactors take it on, so you can start the trend.

Recommendations for some spooky films: Scream, The Burbs( Tom Hanks), Jeepers Creepers, Monster Squad, Arachnophobia

Since you like musicals so much, I think you should definitely give Tim Burton's animated Nightmare Before Christmas (1993) a try! It's both scary and beautiful. Roman Polanski's Dance of the Vampires (1967), Rosemary's Baby (1968), The Ninth Gate (1999) On a side note, I really enjoyed watching Little Joe (2019) recently. Imho quite underrated intelligent and subtle low-budget spooky psychologicial biotech thriller. Though all those films may not be horror movies in the classical sense - I admit I am personally not so much fond of such. Okay, must-watch classics as The Thing being notable exceptions! :)

The Thing is probably the scarier movie but I voted for The Mist, which you should watch at some point regardless.

If you want to throw a wrinkle into the spooky season, you should watch a great comedy/scary movie. Arsenic and Old Lace (with Cary Grant) or Abbott and Costello Meets Frankenstein (and Dracula and the Wolfman) are absolute gold. You’d love them….😎
