Happy Halloween, everyone.
In honor of the spooky day, I'm gonna give you some underrated Halloween recommendations.
1. Tucker and Dale vs Evil
This is admittedly one that a lot of people are learning about more and more, but for good reason. It's damn good. It's a hilarious deconstruction of slasher tropes, and once you get past all the blood and gore (or maybe you're into that, who knows) you actually have a pretty nice romance. And this is coming from someone who normally dosen't care about romances in movies. Highly recommend.
2. Scooby Doo: Camp Scare
Out of all the Scooby Doo direct-to-dvd movies, the best... is Zombie Island. We all know that. But I really like camp scare as well. It's Scooby Doo doing an 80's slasher movie (AKA: mainly Friday the 13th), just making it kid friendly. And since I love 80's slashers AND Scooby Doo, this is a no brainer to like.
Plus the song at the beginning is a banger.
3. Horror of Dracula
Now this one really isn't underrated, with how popular Dracula is, but I feel like this is a version that's barley talked about. Is it the most accurate to the source material? No, probably not, and it's not as iconic as the original 30's version admittedly, but this does have my all time favorite showdown between Van Helsing and Dracula, so that's gotta count for something.
4. Literally the entire Re-Animator series
Re-Animator is one of the most underrated 80's horror franchises, in my humble opinion. The body horror is insane, they're actually pretty funny in a dark comedy way, and Herbert West is far and away the most underrated horror character of all time. In my opinion he's up there with Freddy Kruger and Ash Williams in terms of "best horror characters who run their mouths".
His insane drive to beat death is... well, insane (coulda worded that better) and Jeffery Combs gives him such a great character in all three movies. Highly recommend all of them.
5. The Frighteners
Of all the horror movies that have cult followings, I'm shocked this one never gets brought up. If you don't know what this is, Micheal J. Fox plays a psychic who can see ghosts and uses that to con people, but soon finds a really big, bad ghost terrorizing the town, and he's the only one who can stop it.
It's has R. Lee Ermy in it, Jeffery Combs, it's a pretty dark and inventive movie, there's a lot of really cool twists and turns, I just- this movie is so good, you guys. I highly, HIGHLY recommend it.
And those are some Halloween movie recommendations. If you take my advice and watch any of these, or if you've seen 'em already, let me know what you think.
'Till next time.
Okay, so this is kind of stupid I know, but I’m in the middle of watching the Holiday Spirit episode from Ghost Whisperer, and then it hits me that the actress who played Maddie and Buck’s parents also plays in this episode. And that’s it. I just had a oh I know her moment, even though technically I saw in GW before 911, but had the same thing happen to me when I saw GW after watching The Frighteners.
