    The World Series.

    Once you've seen them..... no reason to watch again.

    What are we missing here for the ultimate line up?

    The World Series.

    I rarely re-watch movies, though once in a while I might watch one again, especially if it's one I really like.

    Maybe the Amityville Horror original movie or the Shining with Jack Nicholson? Those are scary movies.

    Not a fan of most classic horror, but I've seen and liked all the others mentioned. I have Elvira's Haunted Hills, which is a fun watch. No pesky ToTers to worry about, so Halloween is just another day to me.

    I don't watch anything specific, but here's a few titles I've seen that would fill the bill:

    Hocus Pocus 1 and 2
    Hotel Transilvania 1-4(?)
    Paranorman
    Evil Dead 1 and 2
    Dawn of the Dead
    Nightmare on Elm St. 1-4
    It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

    again, especially if it's one I really like.

    Agreed, that's why I said the above. Those titles listed don't make the
    "I'll watch it again" list, for me. ;-)

    Now that I say that, my re-watch list seems to mostly include older war movies, older western movies, and a comedy or two.



    ... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.

    Classic Frankenstein with Boris Karloff

    Also, a couple of silent classics:

    Nosferatu
    The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari

    I think both of those are available on YouTube.

    movie or the Shining with Jack
    Nicholson? Those are scary movies.

    Just did this one last night. I kinda
    forgot how ridiculous some of it is. No
    wonder Stephen King hated it.

    I might not be able to watch anything during halloween night, but one of these days i'd like to give a shot to the Evil Dead movies since i have never seen them.
    Should i watch them in the order they came out?

    Those are good choices for scary movies! I have not seen the shining in a long time. Thank you for great idea!

    These are great movie choices Mortar. I like stuff on the fun side. I have seen It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown so far. It is a classic. Have a great Halloween!

    Oh yeah. Love the WWII movies, particularly those with "The Duke". Westerns I'm more picky. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, They Call Me Trinity, The magnificeent Seven, The Cowboys, these are what I think of most.

    I loved the shining. Maybe it is time to watch it again.

    I remember seeing in in first-run, and how boring I found it. The pace was just too slow for my taste. Some real classic horror flicks, check out Carrie and The Exorcist. Not as classic but still fun to watch are The Nightmare on Elm St. movies.

    That was good too. Another, more recent, non-traditional zombie movie I liked was Heartbeats(?).
