Let’s get started with a more fun “scary but not too scary” TM  movie or two shall we? 

Remember I have already seen Shawn of the Dead, Warm Bodies, Addams Family, Sleepy Hollow, Hocus Pocus, Young Frankenstein!

The Frighteners and What We Do In The Shadows have it for me. A good horror comedy works as both. Also New Zealand 🇳🇿

I can never get enough of Michael J. Fox, so The Frighteners gets my vote.

I think Dark City would be a great October movie. It's arguably not a horror movie, but it definitely has some horror movie elements. The director also made The Crow, after all. I'm sure it's not too scary for Cassie and Carly, and I really think they might like it, based on what they've liked in the past. It would be a really nice complement to the more traditional October movies. I definitely don't want to pigeonhole it as just a Halloween movie though - it's worth a watch at any time of the year.

The Burbs is a classing you'll love it.

I think Anna and the Apocalypse would be the perfect Movie for the girls. Has anyone else seen Anna and the Apocalypse yet?

Shouldn't Lake Placid have been in the "animals" poll?

That ones got some great songs and is a pretty good movie. My grandma used to like that one a lot.

You might like Little Shop of Horrors.

Are we going to try and squeeze in a baseball movie during the playoffs... before Halloween? I'm really hoping to see Eight Men Out.

MLB who? Hockey is in preseason and there's football! 😁 I think Slap Shot or The Longest Yard (1974). (Go O's!!)

I hope you can work in "The 'Burbs." Funny movie. Stars Tom Hanks and additional big names.

Gipsy Undead

Ah damn, only just subbed and i missed a vote involving Tucker and Dale vs Evil, such a funny movie

Came in an impressive second in the poll. Zombieland (2009) won by a decent margin, as you can see.

I know I'm too late and it's not on the poll, but I have to recommend Trick 'r Treat (2007) for "Halloween Lite" because it is the PERFECT Hallowe'en-themed movie and scary-but-not-too-scary.
