Classic Halloween Movies

Other than Christmas, perhaps no holiday proves a better with film than Halloween. Be it a movie about Halloween or the popular genre of scary horror films, the following films are a perfect choice for fright night.



    It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. Initially appearing in 1966, this kids' classic has been a staple of Halloween for American children for more than 4 decades. As Linus awaits The Great Pumpkin, his good friend Charlie Brown famously gets rocks in his trick-or-treat bag.

    

Halloween. One of the scariest films ever made, "Halloween" first caused shrieks in 1978 and has spawned numerous sequels and screams ever since. Escaping from a mental institution in 1978, the crazed Michael Myers wastes little time terrorizing his hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois, including a young Jamie Lee Curtis, in one of her earliest and most recognizable roles.

    

The Amityville Horror. Based on a true story, this 1979 classic focuses on a pair of young newlyweds and their children who move into their Long Island dream house, only to discover they've made a terrible choice. Starring James Brolin and "Superman" vixen Margot Kidder, "The Amityville Horror" is sure to scare the living daylights out of horror fans young and old.

    

Carrie. Another film from what many consider the Golden Age of horror films, this 1976 classic based on the Stephen King bestseller finds young Carrie White ridiculed by classmates, who soon find out they don't know who they're messing with. A horror classic, "Carrie" also boasts one of the most memorable scenes in film history when Carrie, played masterfully by Sissy Spacek, attends her senior prom.

   

 A Nightmare on Elm Street. Producing a 1980s icon and one of horror's most famous characters, "A Nightmare on Elm Street" introduced the world to Freddy Krueger, a terrorizing character who manages to infiltrate the nightmares of his victims, each of whom is a child of the people who played a part in killing the actual Freddy Krueger years before. Eventually spawning six sequels, the original is considered by many horror afficionados to be famed writer and director Wes Craven's masterpiece.

    

The Exorcist. Destined to scare viewers even today, nearly 40 years after its release, "The Exorcist" features screen legends Ellen Burstyn and Max von Sydow, who somehow manage to have the show stolen from them by a then 14-year-old Linda Blair, who plays a young girl obsesses by an evil spirit. Adding to the film's status as a legend of horror is a series of mysterious happenings that apparently occured during the film's production.
