I Know What You Did Last Halloween When You Returned To Exorcise Wax Houses On Haunted Elm Street
October 29th 2008 05:01
Too old to go trick-or-treating and too lazy to dress up for Halloween? Well have no fear, TV’s got ya covered. It’s that time of year again: The Obligatory Halloween Flood of Horror Movies! This Friday FX, AMC, and TMC alone have enough horror movies to keep you occupied all day.
For example, FX lists Wes Craven Presents Dracula III: Legacy starting a early as 9 AM. Also on the schedule is Bats, I Still Know What you Did Last Summer, Cold Creek Manor, House of Wax, Halloween: H20, Ghost Ship.
Over on AMC, we have Jeepers Creepers, A Nightmare on Elm Street (look for Johnny Depp’s bed scene--no, I’m not talking THAT kind of bed scene…), and classics like The Fly, House of Dracula, House of Frankenstein, and Horror of Dracula, Halloween, followed by, not 2, but Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers, (for parts 2 and 3 see Spike TV but stick around on AMC for 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (after he’s returned)). You get a break from Halloween (the movies, not the day) with Jeepers Creepers and Constantine. Then it’s Resident Evil, House on Haunted Hill, and…wait for it…that’s right, end the night with none other than Return to House on Haunted Hill!
And on TMC we get Kwaidan, Spirits of the Dead, Cat People, the very freaky “Freaks”, The Devil Doll (not to be confused with the later showing of The Devil Bat), Mark of the Vampire, White Zombie, The Body Snatchers (circa 1945), Bedlam, The Ghoul, The Haunted Palace, Die, Monster, Die, The Shuttered Room, The Dunwich Horror, and Blood Feast
Over on Bravo you can catch The Omen and The Exorcist back to back, and then more Exorcists... But if you miss the beginning of The Omen, you can catch the same thing on Spike TV a half an hour later, followed by none other than Damien—Omen II, and II: The Final Conflict (which if you’ll look up at AMC you’ll see wasn’t really the final conflict at all)
(What? No Screams? What is the world coming to?
)
But if scary movies aren’t your thing, there’s always The Bencwarmers on FX, Groundhog Day, Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles, and The Da Vinci Code on TNT, Fun with Dick and Jane on TBS, Wayne’s World on Comedy Central, and Center State and The Bodyguard on the Oxygen channel. For “Police Academy” see TV Land.
If you’ve read through this entire list and still can’t find anything that suits your Halloween fancy, there’s always the Ghost Hunters 7-hour live marathon on Sci-Fi. Logon and become part of the team as they revisit Ft. Delaware to prove the former Civil War post. The event is hosted by Steve Valentine and “Destination Truth”’s Josh Gates. Fun times.
