What are the best Halloween movies?
It's that time of the year again and Halloween is just around the corner. Decorations are everywhere, people get creative with their costumes, and jack-o-lanterns light up the streets at night. It's also the best time to watch some scary movies and here are some of the best ones to get you into the mood for Halloween.
Beetlejuice
Tim Burton has made his mark by putting a comedic twist to horror by way of 1988's Beetlejuice. This dark comedy-fantasy movie is something that will spook you in the most entertaining way possible. When the spirits of a deceased couple are harassed by a family that has moved into their home, bio-exorcist Beetlejuice comes into the picture to drive them away.

Yet somehow, the original Halloween by John Carpenter is the one exception. It's utterly captivating and terrifying without relying on excessive gore and sensationalist violence, and it makes for the ideal group movie-watching session around Halloween time. Plus, you gotta love Jamie Lee Curtis' performance. It's simply a great movie."

Halloween - #2May 25, 2018"I first saw Scary Movie as a kid, and I have to say, it still remains one of my favorite movies to this day. If you are in the mood for a horror comedy spoofing on Scream and I know What You Did Last Summer you can't go wrong with this star-studded movie! This is a great movie for people really into horror movies. With actors like Shawn Wayans and Jon Abrahams what's not to like?"

Then my brother and I just decided to watch this together with mom and dad since it's still on netflix, and yeah it's still scary af!!"

The Shining - #4November 14, 2018"Just saw this movie on Netflix and was surprised by how good it is. Its quite original and has good character development (which is hard to say for most horror movies lately). It doesn't rely on obvious tired jump scares, but manages to build a very creepy atmosphere throughout. A great find!"

The Ritual - #5October 9, 2018"I only found out from my best friend that this is already available on Netflix!

And now that I got to watch it, I can say that it's perfect to watch at night during the halloween day! LOL"

The Conjuring - #6May 31, 2018"I rented this movie for Halloween, thinking I was getting a horror movie that would scare me and my friends. Oh how wrong I was. This clearly is not a horror and is a cheesy comedy parody, how disappointing! This is false advertising, what movie called 'Scary Movie' isn't scary?!"

Scary Movie 2 - #7June 2, 2018"You can't go wrong with some classic horror. I love the Scream series and think it was one of the more popular ones in the past few decades. Typical deaths that happen to the teens that try to get away and it doesn't always end up well. I am glad I decided to get this again."
