films to watch on halloween

If you're like me, you'll be alone on Halloween this year. I was last year too, actually, but let's not talk about it. Last year I wanted to do a post about my top 10 favorite horror films, but I was a little late, so I'm doing it now. I watched a few new Halloween horror films last year including the original Fright Night and I finally finished Alien and throughout this year I've watched more. So here we are, my top Halloween films. Theses are in no order, by the way.

1. The Shining (1980), Director: Stanley Kubrick



2. Fright Night (1985), Director: Tom Holland



3. The Silence of The Lambs (1991), Director: Jonathon Demme



4. Alien (1979), Director: Ridley Scott



5. Close Encounters of The Third Kind (1977), Director: Steven Spielberg



6. 28 Days Later (2002), Director: Danny Boyle



7. The Mist (2007), Director: Frank Darabont



8. Paranormal Activity (1, 2, 3) (2009 - 2011), Directors: Oren Peli, Tod Williams, Henry Joost/Ariel Schulman

So there ya have it. My top ten favorite horror films. Some aren't extremely scary or whatever, but they're still dark and have a great Halloween vibe. HAPPY HALLOWEEN, EVERYONE.
