Hey guys!

It's that time of year! The time for candy corn, costumes, and cozy sweaters!🍁

(Unless you live in a warm state like me and it's still 80+ degrees...)

But most importantly....it's time for SCARY MOVIES!!👻🕸🎃 🕷 🍁

(Maybe, if I act like I'm excited, it'll trick my brain into thinking I'm brave and I won't be scared this month? Eh...prolly not.)

REGARDLESS, onward we must go, as I have promised that we will watch some spooky/suspenseful/scary/and (p)sychological thrillers this month! So please! Help me pick which movie we should start with....and until the next one, STAY SPOOKYYYYYY👻 👻  👻

The Thing is so good

So excited to watch these along with you!

Cabin in the Woods

Save Halloween for, well, Halloween. And you are doing the originals right? Please don't do the remakes. Especially the Friday remake, that one is particularly bad!

As much as I think anyone should only watch The Thing after Halloween (because that’s the order Carpenter made them), seeing your reaction to Aliens makes me very keen on Thing first. I also suggest Scream, which is my favourite slasher!

JSounds

As a Horror newbie, I'm just voting for the thing that sounds the most intriguing 🤷🏻‍♂️

Next consider Scream. It only missed being NC-17 after the director explained that it was a comedy.

Flick Freaks

The Thing for me is the scariest movie of all time. But it’s so damn good.

Game Wizard001

I would have suggested The Haunting (black and white version, not the 1999 remake). Psychological and spooky atmosphere all in one.

Good luck watching 'The Thing'...

The Conjuring, Insidious, Sinister, the Scream series, The Babadook, and Hereditary are all great horror movies too!

Hellraiser is the one that stayed with me in my nightmares.

Kris Olo

No sweaters for me! Too hot here in Arizona, lol.

The Saw movies are my favorite, just for the overarching storyline that they somehow made work. Friday the 13th is really hit-or-miss. Nightmare on Elm Street is also extremely hit-or-miss. Halloween and Halloween 2018 are really the only two movies Carpenter considers canon out of that series (though he might consider Halloween II part of it, but I can't remember completely). If you watch The Thing, making sure you watch The Thing 2011 because it's a really neat sequel with how they did it. Personally, I don't like newer horror movies like The Conjuring and whatnot because they seem way too demonic for my liking. Same for Exorcist. But Scream is definitely a series to watch, too. Saw, Scream, Thing, and Halloween are really the only horror you need (and this will be an extremely unpopular opinion).

Hey girl! I know it’s not on the list but have you seen the Conjuring? One of my favorite movies. Just curious. I think Ed and Lorraine would really tickle you!

For a real fright watch the Atlas Shrugged Miniseries.

Nightmare on Elm Street! Though I'm still rooting for "Event Horizon" some day

I saw the Thing in the theaters when it first came out. The sense of paranoia and claustrophobia combined with the effects was mind blowing.

Ronny Boss

I'm not all that into horror, but since neither are you I think I brave the 👻. I might have to watch with my guard pig tho to ward off the fear

Andy Jordan

I would say "The Exorcist" is the first modern horror movie. By that I mean I think it's the furthest back you can go for a classic horror movie that has more elements of contemporary horror movies than any other. It came out before Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Alien, The Shining, and everything else after, and yet it plays more or less like horror movies we would recognize today. I saw it for the first time when I was 10 or so, and it still haunts me. It's a truly groundbreaking film, and Linda Blair gives one of the best child actor performances you'll ever see.

Ronny Boss

I would flippin die if you watched bubba ho-tep sometime. That's a really good Bruce Campbell horror comedy. Or behind the mask: the rise of lesley vernon

Ronny Boss

Tucker and Dale vs evil is really funny as well

Grigsy

Trick R Treat is a great scary movie anthology.

I love the Saw movies, too! I know some people complain about them after 4 or so, but I loved the episodic nature of them. I think some people wanted them to be stand-alone, because a lot of horror sequels are, and before the MCU, people weren't as open to cinematic universes. I think Saw III, in particular, is a pretty smart missive on the toxicity of holding grudges. I also recommend Upgrade, if you haven't seen it, directed by James Wan's co-hort Leigh Whannell.

Nightmare on elm Street, Haloween, and Friday the 13th are all just generic slashers..... BUT The Exorcist and The Thing are Horror masterpieces

Anonymous

I would add Evil Dead 1 and 2, then maybe monster house as a kids one to watch, the sixth sense, the silence of the lambs and the fly to name a few

Patrick Egan

Gotta go with the original John Carpenter's Halloween from 1978. The Exorcist didn't do anything for me(and I'm Catholic!). I've enjoyed some of the Nightmare On Elm St and Friday The 13th movies, but I can't say I'm a "fan" of either series. And while there's a lot to like about Carpenter's take on The Thing, I was always partial to the Howard Hawks move from 1951, "The Thing From Another World". Yes, Carpenter's is MUCH closer to the original story. Yes, it's MUCH scarier(the 1951 movie is much more sci-fi than horror). But I have fond memories of watching the '51 Thing on Saturday mornings on the local tv station that would rotate through old 50's sci-fi. The two big ones for me were "The Thing From Another World" and "Them!". But the original 1978 Halloween? That movie is still one of my favorites, and it STILL gives me the willies. It's so simple in many ways, but oh so effective.

Halloween is a classic. Very carefully directed, and is often considered the first slasher film. The thing is really creepy, and has great practical effects, but for Halloween, how can you not watch Halloween?

darby72

I can't believe the two best movies on the list are in last place!

Kelvin

All of these are good, but I gotta go with the Thing

Anonymous

Seriously, the thing is winning?

Brandon Scott

Anyone here ever heard of 13 ghosts? No only is it a fine example of ‘90s horror (lol) but I would lay a serious wager that Natalie hasn’t seen it.

Shadow Queen

I am like you Natalie, I hate scary movies! I vote for a few not as scary movies that are still within the thriller genre or maybe even ones that just tie in with a Halloween theme. Maybe The Sixth Sense if you haven't seen it, The Mummy (Brendan Fraser version 😆), Hocus Pocus?

Anonymous

One movie that used to freak me the hell out back in the day was Prince of Darkness

David Martin

The Skeleton Key and Scream are some good horror movies....The Skeleton Key more psychological

Thomas Malley

The exorcist was called the scariest movie of all time, but it’s a very different horror movie.

mrhalfbit

I am SO excited for the Thing!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ron K

I voted for The Thing and recommended it in a previous post, and even I am starting to wonder if we should start in the shallow end guys haha.

Anonymous

The special effects in The Thing still hold up to this day. Awesome movie I watched it many times.

It Hurt A Lot

I never watch horror movies. So I'm watching these for the first time with you Natalie. Someone tell me everything's gonna be alright

Brad Bunch

I love The Thing . . . BUT you really should watch Halloween before The Thing. You get a better idea what John Carpenter is capable of without the huge, gory, insane (but amazing) creature effects. Halloween is very, very simple and creepy, not in the least gory. People just want to see you grossed out. Except for The Exorcist and The Thing, you'd benefit from watching these in chronological order. Seriously. All unique, important choices, though, except Friday the 13th...

The thing doesnt even come close to being Halloween's fecal matter

As soon as I saw the movies on the poll; “The Thing” was the definitive choice, glad to see most everyone agrees. *rubs hands maniacally*

This. Is ganna be fun.

“Event Horizon” and “The Cell” are a couple to consider for this month.

I've always thought the key to scary movies is to watch them with friends. ;)

Red Claw

Seeing this collection I think "Scream" is missing. It has always been my favorite Teen-Slasher.

JediLounger

Oh man. Haha. The Thing, and the vote is not even close. I am very much looking forward to watching this movie with you, but as another comment said, perhaps we should work our way up to the movie. Watching The Thing with a person new to horror movies is like throwing a baby in a pool lol.

Id prefer she watch the Prequel first, that way she isnt totally unindoctrinated for it. Besides, I love when she screams at the people to not go into the dark, locked room.

Tranquil_Gnome

Love the scary stuff. Still, hope we get a movie or two of happy-ish Halloween movies. Nightmare Before Christmas, Hocus Pocus, Practical Magic, Beetlejuice, The Adam's Family. I don't even mind if you have seen them before. The re-watching of Iron Man 2 was as fun as a first time watching of the other movies.

Dave M.

HAHAHAHAHA Am I mean at all to say that I am extremely excited to see you get scared??? Mwahahahahaaaaa!!! 😈 Good luck! You’re gonna need it. 😜😉😂

matthew

hereditary and midsommar?

Armchair Wizard

I can't wait for the Thing reaction. Its gonna be so good.

Loneclaw

The Thing, hands down

Anonymous

The Thing, simply because it'll be a first time watch for me, too lol

Gath Bard

I still think that if Spooptober gets too stressful, splicing it up with "so bad it's good" horror movies could help a bit. My vote goes to "Troll 2"

Reggie Clark

Halloween (1978) to end the month

Anonymous

The Cabin in the Woods would be a good one to pick up. It is co-written and produced by Joss Whedon and has a pre-Thor Chris Hemsworth.

Ken

I see lots of people suggesting Scream, Galaxy Quest, & Cabin in the Woods. Those are great movies and can be watched and understood by themselves, but they also satirize and pay homage to their genres. You'll get more out of it if you watch some 80s slasher movies before Scream, Star Trek before Galaxy Quest, and a wide variety of horror before Cabin in the Woods.

A Quiet Place, Get Out, Pan’s Labyrinth :-)

If you haven't seen The Thing 2011 by Matthijs van Heijningen Jr. I recommend it. It's a prequel and ends at the beginning of The Thing by 1984 John Carpenter. It is more horrific than the 84 version (better special effects).

Darryl Low

Looks like we are starting off with The Thing. Those Antarctic winds will take Natalie's mind off the heat ;)

Armchair Wizard
>>44921243

i like it a lot, but it absolutely has WORSE special effects because it uses slightly bad CGI where the original uses Practical Effects that still look good.

Ron K

A good one that's not as scary, not gory and funny at the same time is The Frighteners with Michael J Fox. Good one to fit in between the scarier ones.

Paul Gardner

There's The Thing and then there's everything else. Go with The Thing.

Anonymous

Of this batch it has to be The Thing, no question. Another scary movie I would like to see you react to is Dead Alive (AKA Brain Dead) directed by Peter Jackson. It’s a masterpiece of odd comedy and gore. My grandmother used to turn her head away if a character in a movie had a paper cut, but Dead Alive is so over the top she was riveted to the screen the whole time. It’s been on my Top 5 favorite movies for over 20 years. Please watch this.

I love the exorcist but I think the slower, but necessary, first 30 minutes puts people off watching it

Common people!! She’s gotta start with Halloween!

Oouga

Salem's Lot

Tony Hart

Not even close

I haven't watched a ton of horror, but I was able to pick up on most of the tropes in Cabin in the Woods. Though I admit there are probably a ton of references I missed because of this.

Troy B.
>>44915681

I'm not sure I could handle her talking through A Quiet Place. =D

Eric

On the next pole you should definitely consider 2010s Let Me In amazing horror flick

Anonymous

I think it would be awesome to watch Evil Dead 2 with you! you can Skip EV1 (good but essentially same plot but w/out the humor that makes EV2 so great)

Anonymous

I voted for Halloween, but since you like Alan Tudyk so much.. maybe "Tucker and Dale vs Evil?"

Thundarr100

I voted for Friday The 13th, but judging by the numbers it looks like you're probably gonna be doing The Thing first (also a personal favorite of mine). You might want to do 2 reactions per week during October. One scary movie followed by an episode of Firefly as a "palate cleanser". Just a suggestion.

Gregory Coburn

it's got to be john carpenter's the thing, it's an iconic and great movie

Anonymous

If you have never seen it, Cabin In The Woods by Joss Whedon and Drew Goddard. It's meta, sarcastic, stars Chris Hemsworth, funny, scary. It literally has it all.

Quarty

If you haven't watched Shaun of the Dead, you should watch it this Halloween! It's a British comic-zombie film. And if you enjoy it, there are 2 more in the trilogy to watch: a cop film and a sci-fi movie, same cast, etc!!

1978 Halloween

David of the North

Look, I love The Thing, I really do. But to throw this at Nat first? You guys are sadistic. I voted Halloween. Sadistic.

Anonymous

The Thing is one of my favorite horror movies. So...uh good luck haha. Also, consider watching Cabin in the Woods. A lot of horror films are fun and campy, but this movie is actually pretty good in itself.

Nathan Fares

Definately A Nightmare on Elm Street.......it's a classic....

john collins

Hey, nat I know your doing the thing first but i just joined and was hoping to suggest the conjuring series if you haven't seen them.

Anonymous

I agree with above about Shaun of the Dead as a scary movie for Halloween.

Anonymous

The Thing is my favorite horror

Vonlinchen

Not really a scary movie per say, but Donnie Darko is a good Halloween movie. Not just mindless horror or jump scares, it's spooky and interesting. If you do watch it, Directors Cut only, theatrical version missed a bunch of stuff that explains a lot of important stuff.

Anonymous

The Thing yes, but everyone does it. The exorcist on the other hand... I’d like to see that again it’s been quite awhile.

I’ve actually never seen The Thing. One of my greatest failures. It would be GREAT first watch
