AMA October Day 15 & 16

October 15: Do you have any 'must watch' Halloween movies? [livejournal.com profile] aweeghost

Oh definitely.
Must Watch: Halloween; The Halloween Tree; Hocus Pocus; Scream; Trick R' Treat; at least one of the Friday the 13th movies (usually #1 or #4); Children of the Corn; TCM (either the original or the remake); ANOES; It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

And odds are I'm gonna watch: The Conjuring; The Exorcist; Poltergeist; and Evil Dead.

I always try to watch at least 31 Halloween/Horror movies so I try to cover a lot of movies, including some new ones each time. Often though, I end up falling asleep about 1/2way through and having to try again,

Halloween, Halloween Tree, and Hocus Pocus are my absolute must-sees though. And Children of the Corn has been part of my Halloween traditions since before I even really liked horror. ANOES, Scream, & The Conjuring are some of my favorite movies period. And I can't even begin to explain how much I adore The Exorcist.

October 16: Who is your favorite cartoon character and why?  [livejournal.com profile] ama_ranth_827

Bruce Wayne/Batman from Batman The Animated Series. He was the first cartoon character I really fell in love with and became invested in his story. He was also my introduction to DC and Batman, which is still one of my favorite things ever.

Thank you for the birthday wishes! ♥

I love watching horror movies in general, but October is probably the time of year where watching them is essential. I have so many, but the one that is always watched every year no matter what is Hocus Pocus, which has become a Halloween classic for a reason. Trick R Treat has become quite a classic for me rather quickly as well, since I had recently discovered it a couple years ago and instantly loved it. It just has the feel of Halloween right, y'know? Perfection.

I like horror in general too (though not body horror so much). I didn't see Trick or Treat until the last year or so, but you're right: it's so Halloweeny that I have to watch it yearly now.
