Was going to post a Halloween celebration topic yesterday, but then got sidetracked looking for the perfect Halloween card to give to the board and then got sidetracked by a bunch of other stuff.... and now it's one fewer day to celebrate! At any rate, given that people say "Merry Christmas" all December (sometimes even after Christmas has happened), I figured Halloween deserves the same honors. And so this topic shall be a daily celebration of Halloween up until the big day! (And possibly thereafter.) So.... what's everybody's favorite horror movie? Creepypasta? Horror manga? And what movies are people planning to watch this October? --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Watched The Endless (2017? 2018?) last night, was pretty cool. It was about two brothers who went back to visit a cult they escaped from years ago, only to discover some fluky shit going on. Apparently it's the semi-sequel to Resolution, which also sounds pretty cool.
Unrelated to that, here's Grim, Grinning Ghosts, one of my favorite spooky songs (Only version I could quickly find without the long intro.) --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Earlier tonight I watched As Above So Below (which is finally on NFI). It was both better and worse than I had expected, bearing in mind I had really high hopes going in.
Completely unrelated, here's David S. Pumpkins to put you in the Halloween mood. I can't remember if I stopped in Spirit of Halloween last year, but this year they had suits that looked David S Pumpkins-esque. At any rate, apparently it was turned into an animated film which I kinda need to track down. GanglyKhan posted... And here I was thinking that you've just been 25 years old your entire life. Or he was 25 when he made the account. Sahuagin posted... I had the stomach flu on Halloween like three years in a row as a kid I had one Halloween basically preempted by Hurricane Sandy.

Love Halloween, hate the fact that stores start putting Halloween stuff out almost at the end of August. Some have occasionally started in July. I suspect it's partly because the Thanksgiving and Christmas stuff starts going up for sale before Thanksgiving >_> tbh, one of things I kinda look forward to every year is the new Spooky Town stuff which retailers like Michael's put on display. The designs are often humorously creative. This year one of the pieces involved a skeletal couple holding hands and taking their skeletal dog for a walk. Occasionally I've bought a smaller item on clearance but in recent years they tend to sell out before they get really cheap and, tbh, I just can't see buying a lot of the stuff anyway. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

Already kinda fell out of the holiday spirit, partly because I was catching up on Saiki K instead of anything horror, etc. >_> idk, it's kind of a bummer that there's massive buy-in for Christmas so it gets a whole season whereas Halloween doesn't unless you're a kid or have kids. It's almost enough to make a guy want to knock up some chick.
At any rate, SNL had a so-so skit about pumpkin fucking over the weekend It had some funny moments early on, but then it kept going. Otherwise last night I was torn between watching Malevolence (NFI original) and "Black Museum." Had thought I'd watch Museum first because it was shorter but then realized/remembered that Black Mirror episodes an hour long so no matter what I probably wasn't finishing either one in a single sitting and decided to go with Malevolence because I assumed I'd be more okay with stopping it midway through (which I ultimately was). --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

Finished watching Malevolent. It started iffy, began to look promising, briefly got good, and then turned to absolute shit at the end. Speaking of absolute shit, when I went to mention the movie earlier I couldn't remember if it was named Malevolent or Malevolence. And, after googling it, I saw details for a crappy slasher named Malevolence which I remember seeing years earlier and was only really memorable for the stupid animal mask. Apparently that slasher got a prequel and a sequel.
And, just to toss out an overlooked Halloween song, here's AllStars's "Bump in the Night" Learned about the song maybe about a decade ago because it was used for an Ouran High School Host Club AMV. Coincidentally enough, I first learned of Ouran because of *another* AMV set to Simple Plan's "Grow Up." GRTooCool posted... My parents didn't take me out trick or treating or anything like that.

Watched that "Black Museum" episode which was pretty good up until the semi-hokey ending. Granted, right when they walk into the final exhibit the twist becomes glaringly obvious which also kinda killed part of the fun. Oh, not to mention that it has

Eh, fuck, lost my last post. Either misplaced the tab somehow or didn't hit post.
At any rate, had left (or was going to leave) a few comments about Creeped Out (that it's mostly terrible, especially compared to older kids horror shows like AYAOTD and Goosebumps; however the two-part finale was pretty good and featured Julian Richings (Death from Supernatural) and then mentioned plans to watch that new NFI show The Haunting of Hill House. Came back to wonder if watching horror all year round kinda kills the Halloween season for me a little. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

Started the Haunting of Hill House tonight -- wish I had gotten into it sooner today (or yesterday) because it looks pretty good... although it's hard to keep track of all of the characters so far, given that it's flipping between them.
What's a bit less good is the Curious Creations of Christine McConnell which, I guess I must have missed it in the description, is apparently a cooking show but with a running horror comedy angle. --- (\/)(\/)|-| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. ...

None of the choices fit me. I am not a fan of Halloween, but my reason is not listed. I am not a candy person and don't like the thought of all that candy going to waste. During childhood, I enjoyed trick-or-treating, but now with so much crime and danger, I am not comfortable with children walking around at night. They are vulnerable, and I worry about their safety. I do not like some of the Halloween decorations and activities either because they are too sick or scary. For example, I'm a wimp and can't handle being startled.
