Well, the people have spoken (on instagram that is!) and the post is going live today vs Friday. I think it’s because everyone is already starting their Halloween movie night watchlists and it’s always good to find more recommendations! We’ve definitely started with a few and we will be having weekly movie nights my brother & sister in law to go through some of the movies on this list! (I AM SO EXCITED!)
So without any further ado here is a list with a few ol’ good favorites that everyone watches as well as some that I LOVE and I feel don’t get the hype they deserve! While the title says movies I also threw in a few TV shows because I couldn’t help myself, Halloween is just too good.
- The Witches (the Anjelica Huston 1990 version)
- Red Riding Hood
- Blood & Chocolate
- Halloweentown (1-3 of course!)
- Practical Magic
- The Craft
- Beetlejuice
- The Little Shop of Horrors
- Edward Scissorhands
- Coraline
- Hotel Transylvania
- Fear (with Mark Wahlberg & Reese Witherspoon. Definitely suspenseful)
- Beautiful Creatures
- The Nightmare Before Christmas
- The Covenant
- The Addams Family (the new animated version)
- Sleepy Hollow
- The Witches of Eastwick
- Death Becomes Her
- Sweeney Todd
- The Munsters (tv show)
- Goosebumps
- The Secret Circle (only one season but so good)
- Hocus Pocus (duh!)
- Young Frankenstein (the one with Gene Wilder)
Now for a few honorable mentions because a new release happened since I drafted this post and there are a few others that just needed to be on here:
- Hubie Halloween (Netflix just dropped this one!)
- The Addams Family, any of the originals! (this one is absolute MUST but it’s on everyone’s normal watch list so I didn’t originally include it)
- Twitches (tv show with the Mowry twins!)
- The Vampire Diaries (TV Show, gah…I just love it)
- The Magicians (TV Show, one of my favorites!)
- Underworld
- Interview With the Vampire
- Ghostbusters – any of them! <3
