It’s no secret that I love movies… but I have never been a fan of scary movies. I don’t like being scared. There are enough scary things in real life, I want my movie life to be an escape from reality. I mean, really, I’m a girl… if I need an adrenaline rush I’ll just walk to my car alone at night. So Halloween is an unusual time for me. I love costumes, themes, and the drama of it… but I hate to be scared. So I have compiled a list of films that I plan to watch this Halloween. Some I’ve seen, some I hope to watch this year for the first time. They all have a Halloween “theme” without being terrifying…. (I hope)
Old Favorites
- The Addams Family– this is a “must watch” for me every Halloween
- Chicago– one of the best musicals ever… definitely the best one about murder
- Phantom of the Opera– so dramatic… spooky but not terrifying
- Young Frankenstein– I watched this for the first time last year, and it’s one of my new Halloween favorites
New This Year
- Hocus Pocus– This film stars 3 of my favorite actresses: Sarah Jessica Parker, Bette Midler, and Kathy Najimy…. I can’t believe I haven’t watched it yet
- The Witches of Eastwick– people have been telling me to watch this for years, so this year I finally will
- Rear Window– I don’t think I’ve watched a Hitchcock film before, but I’ll watch this just to see Grace Kelly in her Edith Head wardrobe
What Halloween films will you be watching this year?
Kisses
Sarah
