HALLOWEEN FILM FESTIVALS AT HOME

Every year throughout my life, I have enjoyed a Halloween film festival of my own . Most years it was the childhod favorites: Dracula, Wolfman, Arsenic and Old Lace, Bell Book and Candle. Last year and a few years back, I branched out and did the whol Harry Ptter set of movies and loved them. This year I was thinking of other themes that might work such as Alien Invaders: War of the Worlds, Alien. The Day the Earth Stood Still. And of course the transformations: The Fly, The Invisible Man, or ghost stories such as Topper - the whole series. I suppose considering our recent pandemic, it wouldn't be out of place to have a germ film festival: Contagion, Outbreak, Pandemic. There are a bunch of movies about the end of the world due to climate disaster, but I haven't seen them, movies about a new ice age and so on. I suppose an argument could be made for movies about the end of the world due to atomic war, but the only one I know is On the Beach. I think there are a lot of ghost movies and probably many witch movies, but I am not familiar with them. Whatever you are watching now that the Trick and Treaters are all gone home, I hope you enjoy a cozy Halloween Evening with soe leftover chocolate candy bars, popcorn, hot cider or hot chocolate and a black cat curled up and purring beside you!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN 2021
