October 15: Do you have any 'must watch' Halloween movies? 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?  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.

Trick R Treat is brilliantly written with how all the stories weave together.

I liked It Follows, though it hasn't become a favorite of mine (at least not yet). The Babadook was really spooky, but that kid was so annoying imo. Dream Warriors is the best sequel, and more fun than the original.

Which Village of the Damned? I watched Carpenter's for the first time this month. It wasn't really scary, but I liked it.

I tend to save Nightmare Before Christmas for December since it works for both and I'm just trying to hit some favorites at Xmas, not cover a full 31.

I so agree, the kid annoyed me also. His screaming got tiring really fast. Dream Warriors is always going to be my favorite, the intro scene stuck with me long after I watched it for the first time.

The 60s one. I find the kids creepier in that one. Though I also enjoy the remake.
