Choosing Good Halloween Films
By : Nami & Cami
1. The Blair Witch Project – 1999, The story is presented as a documentary of actual amateur footage found in the woods after three students vanish while researching a local legend known as the Blair Witch. This movie directed by Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sanchez. I sure this films is the best Halloween films for this years.
2. Carnival of Souls - 1962, While on her way to take a job as a church organist, a woman is haunted by a bizarre apparition. It compels her to an abandoned lakeside pavilion, beginning an eerie chain of events. This movie directed by Herk Harvey.
3. Donnie Darko - 2001, Time travel, an improbably terrifying man in a rabbit costume and a protagonist who may or may not be slipping into mental illness form the mystery at the core of this cult film that straddles sci-fi and horror, yet is much more than either genre. Everything finally comes together on the night before Halloween, when Donnie is forced to confront a decision that will change his future, and his past. This movie directed by Richard Kelly. I recommended this Halloween films to you.
4. The Exorcist - 1973, Even putting aside the hype, this remains one of the all-time best horror films. Ellen Burstyn plays a mother who becomes distraught over the increasingly bizarre behavior of her daughter. Not wanting to admit the possibility that her daughter has become possessed by the devil, she nevertheless agrees at last to bring in an exorcist . This movie directed by William Friedkin.
6. The Nightmare Before Christmas - 1993, In this inventive stop-action fantasy, the leader of Halloween Town (known as Jack Skellington, the "king of the pumpkin patch") conspires to breathe new life into the repetitive celebration of Halloween by kidnapping Santa Claus and imposing his own dark spin on Christmas. This movie directed by Henry Selick.
7. Onibaba - 1964, This black-and-white Japanese horror movie takes place during the 14th century civil wars that rocked the country and resulted in mass starvation. A woman and her daughter-in-law survive by selling the armor of wayward warriors that the two women lure to their death. This movie directed by Kaneto Shindo.
