Come October, do you take to watching scary movies every night? Are you a lover of a seasonal spooky film?
With the news so completely upsetting and horrific, I have to admit that my desire for the violent or supernatural has been pretty null, but I thought it might be fun to share our favourite films to watch at this time of year. When we’ve found some time to turn on the TV after the baby has gone to sleep, we’ve mostly been watching old Jean-Claude Van Damme films, which—while violent—are so ridiculous that there is little to unsettle or disturb… but maybe I simply need to lean into the Halloween season a bit more.
Yes!!! This is mine too! I was obsessed with it as a child, wanted to rent the VHS in the bubbly case every weekend. Have you seen the original ending? It's included on the DVD - very, very weird.
I have always been a Hammer Horror enthusiast, my favorite of which is The Devil Rides Out (Fisher, 1968). Anything with Christopher Lee and/or Peter Cushing is a win in my book. More recently, my annual spooky season watch is Gulliermo del Toro's Crimson Peak (2015). It is gothic horror perfection ♥️🩸
Watcher in the Woods!! My favorite weird Disney scary movie, and I have it on VHS :)

I’m a big baby, so my idea of scary is any Hitchcock or Wait Until Dark for the millionth time.
I've definitely become more of a baby as I've gotten older. I can't believe what I used to watch!

I love Hammer Horror too! I haven't seen Crimson Peak - I will have to check it out.
The one spooky season movie I watch every year is Rosemary's Baby, and I completely obsess over Mia Farrow's clothing 😍
