MOFO HALLOWEEN
CHAT EXTRAVAGANZA
2016
During the chat for The Two Towers in Rodent's Lord of the Rings Weekend Bash, I mentioned that it might be a good idea to open the chat room on HALLOWEEN and watch horror movies for awhile.
YODA thought it was a solid idea.
WHAT movies do you all want to watch on Halloween?
I'm thinking maybe three or four (or more?) movies.... beginning sometime maybe in the early evening and going on into the night.
This thread is here to get your opinions and recommendations on those movies. Sometime later, if everything's cool, an official list with times and everything will be completed. For now, just tell us what movies you're interested in watching if you can be here on Halloween night (October 31st, 2016).
I watch The Exorcist every Halloween but i don't think that would be good for a chat. Halloween was the best suggestion in the chat IMO.

Hi, Sexy! How've you been?
One year a kid with no costume came to my door.
After he said "trick or treat" I asked, "What are you supposed to be?"
"The Invisible Man!" he said.
"But I can see you," I told him.
He responded, "No, that's the kid behind me with no costume!"
He got an extra piece of candy for having a good line prepared and for being a little wise a$$.
The serious suggestions in the chat were:
Halloween, The Evil Dead Trilogy, The Thing, Scream. There was something else but i don't know how to go back that far in the chat.

Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde (1931) the one with Fredric March
also, an Elvira film would be a fun choice

I'm down with this. I think maybe one or two movies probably works best, but I'll leave it up to you guys to form a consensus. If you guys can decide together on what you wanna do, I can make it happen on my end.
Trick r treat (2007)
American werewolf in London (1981)
Evil dead (2013)
The nightmare before christmas (1993)
Ok to just talk about the holiday in general in here? :) Halloween is gaining in popularity big-time, and Christmas is becoming more and more the most expensive bill of the year. There are folks that dread Christmas more than income tax season, no joke.

Ouch! That stung! Never seen such quick dissmissal for this movie before.
Trick r Treat is a great choice IMO. I think that along with a more serious horror film if we are doing more than one would be a lot of fun.
Some ideas for fun horror movies that don't involve allot of investment:
Tucker and Dale Vs Evil
You're Next
Re-Animator
Evil Dead 2
Trick r Treat
Krampus
Misery
Or some corny hilariously bad ones to rip on and have a good time with:
Like Jason X, Killer Klowns from Outer Space, Jaws: The Revenge, IT, etc.

Why do you guys keep recommending comedic horror films? Not that I'm against comedic horror films, just not really.... those.
Trick r Treat is great SC. It's an Anthology film like Creepshow but better IMO. Dylan Baker is in it! If we do two i think it'd be good having a comedic one as well as a serious one.

I doubt that.
I must say -- I'm kinda against Scream. Since you recommended it. I like that movie and I'd be fine with watching it, I guess, but.... I've seen all the Scream movies a million times in movie commentaries, and I kinda feel like Scream isn't scary enough for Halloween night. I wanna watch scary things. Maybe even gory things.
Recommending comedic because its hard to really chat while you're watching slow burn intense movies.
I'd also like to throw out literally any Friday the 13th, Halloween, or Nightmare on Elm Street movie.

That's cool. I just threw Scream out because most people seem to like it, i wasn't passionate about it or anything. I don't find any films scary anymore but i'd say a comedy one and a scary one would be a good idea.
And Trick R Treat is better than Creepshow!

I'm definitely up for watching either Scream or The Thing for this one.
My favourite suggestions so far are Trick R Treat, Halloween and The Thing in that order. I definitely think a comedy-horror followed by a proper "scary" one is a good idea. Obviously i've made it clear i'm supporting Trick R Treat but if other people aren't feeling that then i still think it would be a good idea to have a different comedy one.

HELL..... I've seen how that chat room goes. Frankly, people could theoretically watch whatever they want, comment on what they're watching, and it doesn't matter if not everyone is watching the same thing.
I could write up a list of what I'd like to watch, but that doesn't mean you really need to follow along with those movies.
Nightmare before Christmas or, Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

That's actually not a bad idea. What if the chat room stays open for a few hours, but we just watch whatever we wanna watch? I don't see why we have to all watch the same thing, you know. If two people wanna watch the same thing together, they could. Two other people could watch something else. Etc. Etc. Who cares if people are all in there talking about different movies?

Better than those pale, anorexic twigs in Nightmare Before Christmas.
Hocus Pocus is a ridiculously good suggestion. It isn't really a good film but it is completely absurd and would be fun to chat about, it is kind of the middle ground between watching something terrible and something really serious, we'd be able to make fun of it plenty while also actually enjoying watching some of it.
I'd say that is #2 in my picks so far.

Witches of Eastwick is really boring. Hope we don't go for that instead of Hocus.

MY PROPOSAL:
I propose that the chat room is open ALL DAY on Halloween. That way, people in countries that aren't the United States can watch movies when the time is good for them.
The chat room can then close at night -- maybe around midnight, Yoda's time. Maybe later into the night, if he can manage it. Whatever he can deal with.
I think people should watch whatever they want. Maybe they can get someone else to watch the movie with them.
People can decide on what to watch then. Jump into the chat room and just watch a scary movie by yourself and talk about it if you want. Or get someone else to watch it with you. Basically, just have the chat room open for Halloween. That's what I propose. 'Cause I kinda hate deciding for people on what to watch on Halloween. I mean, who does that? It's a holiday -- pick your own damn movie. I just propose having the chat room open. Just for that day. I'm not saying let's have the chat room open all the time. Just have it open on Halloween/Halloween Night.

Hocus Pocus is the right choice so far, I've only seen that once and it was forever ago
https://secure.netflix.com/us/boxshots/ghd/594689.jpg
There are many choices to consider, I know everyone loves The Thing. It has elements I like too, for all its cool vibes its also just a bunch of dudes sitting around in their isolated snow camp. Which doesn't really make for awesome sidechat. I'll throw Jennifer's Body out there as my pick, since these movies should be more social

I chose not to go with the original Halloween because..... I really don't wanna watch it. I've already watched it two or three times for movie commentaries and was bored. Plus, we already have John Carpenter's The Thing, which I only really added for Rodent, since he is a staple of these things.

I love that movie, but it's definitely a Christmas movie and not a Halloween movie.
So, I don't have time at the moment to scroll up and down, but is it fair to say everyone's happy with the choices/schedule? I'm okay with three nights/six movies if you are, though at that point I'm probably going to sit down and program in a switch so the host (SC, I believe?) can link to the chat room without me. We'll need that going forward anyway if we wanna do these every so often.

1. 3 nights! Awesome :D
2. Yes, it's SC in charge of this one
A broad mix of movies, so all will find somthing they like, way to go Sexy. Will be there for Rocky horror on saturday (think I'll get it for this acctually, never seen it but heard good things), never seen hocus pocus, but from what the nostalgia critic said about it, if I can find it on netflix or somthing, then maybe.
For sunday I'm definitely there for the thing, awesome movie. I tried watching one of the friday movies (think it was 6), wasn't impressed, so no go there.
And on monday it's evil dead all the way, not interested in TCM. Could be I'm just hanging about the chat talking for everything, but well see.

Rocky Horror doesn't interest you?
Why was Friday The 13th VII picked? I'm not bothered by it, it's just really random.
It was a surprise to me, too. Well, you know - "Random" is my middle name. I'm a bit worried 'cause I haven't seen anyone say they'd make that one. But I think it would be fun. It's a horror legend - Jason - and I think it would be an entertaining movie for a chat. I considered the other Friday the 13th's - especially parts 3 and 8 - but I felt like going with this one. It's the one with the girl who has telekinetic powers and she battles Jason. So, it's like Carrie. Part VII was actually supposed to be Freddy vs. Jason. It was originally going to come out back then. That's why the storyline is Jason versus telekinetic girl. They switched Freddy to the girl.
Does anyone else have any problems or concerns?
You guys want to go with Evil Dead over Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn? ED 2 is the one that really kicked the franchise off.

I might do a few again in the future, though I'm not much of a Christmassy person so doubt I'll do that one.
I might think up an 80s weekend or something.

Yeah. Its good to go with a group opinion. Friday The 13th Part whatever is a waste of time, Evil Dead 1 was so forgettable they used the same actors in the masterpiece sequel. Hocus Pocus?! You might as well have Nightmare Before Christmas eligible. There were alot of good movies suggested, Sinister is the most terrifying film made probably the last 10 years, though that bothered me it was so over the line.

Well, to me, the first Evil Dead is the masterpiece. I have a hard time with the second movie.

I know to some of you this might seem like typical behavior from me, but, I'm going to call this off. At least -- *I* do not want to be a Halloween Chat Room Host for three nights and have to be there the whole time. I think I rushed into this idea and now I kinda regret it. Or the idea of running a chat room for three nights just doesn't interest me now.
If Rodent and/or anyone else wants to take over -- and view whatever movies you want to view -- GO FOR IT.
I personally.... have lost interest. Apologies if people were planning on it. Nobody's said anything in awhile, so....... yeah.
Alrighty, so here's where I stand: if someone wants to step in and host this, and can commit to in the next couple of days, I'm cool with it going ahead. Otherwise, probably call it off and pick another one to try later (Christmas, or maybe something else). Lemme know what you guys decide, collectively. :)
SC asked if i wanted to take over but i said no because i won't be able to make the Monday one and i'm not sure about the Saturday one either. If somebody else does take over i'll be here Sunday which is no use to you at all :laugh:
Addendum: if someone wants to take over and do just one night or two, that'd be fine, too.

I go away for a couple days and everything goes to pot... laptop binned itself and I had to send it away.
There's no way I can host as I don't have the movies in question... but I'd hate to see a weekend get cancelled.
If anyone can take up hosting, please step forward :D
I can certainly hang around and help with anything needed and give backup to the host... but with actual hosting because I don't have the movies, I can't time anything or keep track of where the movies are.
