1. Hocus Pocus
Bette Midler & Sarah Jessica Parker are stealing children to absorb their youth…what’s better than that?
2. Halloweentown
Back when “Disney Channel Original” was like music to your ears. Every kid wanted Halloweentown to be real…heck I’m still crossing my fingers.
3. Ghostbusters
Who you gonna call?
4. Nightmare Before Christmas
The perfect holiday movie sing-along at any age.
5. Rosemary’s Baby
Psychological thriller at it’s best. Plus we want every single thing Mia Farrow wears in this movie.
6. Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.
7. The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Let’s do the time warp yeaaaaaah.
8. Young Frankenstein
Arguably Mel Brook’s best film- kooky and the most delightful Halloween flick.
9. A Nightmare On Elm Street
For the thrill seekers and horror fanatics out there…
7. Edward Scissorhands
Bring some strange romance to your Halloween movie marathon. (Still mourning Johnny Depp and Winona Rider as a couple)
8. The Addams Family
Wednesday Addams is forever our spirit animal.
9. Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Okay, this is a t.v. show. However, this was such an essential part of Halloween as a child.
10. Scream
Scream set the mould for terrifying and campy slasher flicks.
