The Halloween Thread

[Typhon]

(1970) Nothing better than aggressive half naked sexy women, a good vampire story, and Peter Cushing.  8/10

Okay got my pumpkins done and only lost a bit of a finger!


This was a must obviously:


I did make a different template for the DIO logo this time...it's not perfect sadly...


I wanted to do something Sabbath related but had nothing...I was thinking about doing something with Henry but it's just so damn difficult to figure out how to make it so I went with something simple instead:


A simplified version of the Rules Of Hell cross on a tombstone...too cheesy?


This was my first one this year just to try and get things going again:



I ran out of time and still have two bigger pumpkins left...who knows I might do something with them tomorrow if I have the time...

^^^^^^
I really like that last one.

Sorry that was auto correct, I just googled the name of the movie is Corruption, thank you for your help Typhon.

And thank you for pointing out to me a Peter Cushing movie I don't have.  I'll have to pick that one up.

Just ordered it tonight.

Bringing this thread back to life (pun intended) for the upcoming ghoulish festivities. 

I thought I would start a thread devoted to my favorite holiday.   Post anything you like here that would in some way be related to Halloween.   For example:

     1) pictures of yourself from past Halloweens
     2) decorations at your residence
     3) a good song to play at a Halloween party
     4) and if you watch a scary movie, I'd appreciate it if you post here as well as the movie thread.  I know I will be watching a few this month.

Happy Halloween to all!

My pumpkins have been waiting for couple of weeks now...

Soon I gotta start thinking of designs again... DIO one ofcourse but the others are always a bit of a mystery. This time I had a pretty good harvest so I have 8 rather big pumpkins to carve!

The 6th release in Hammer Studio's Frankenstein series of films.  This is the only one where the doctor is not played by Peter Cushing, although Ralph Bates does a good job.  Not much new in this version, but attractive women kept me interested none the less. 6/10

A strong cast highlite this Amicus film of four short horror stories about people who visit Dr. Diabolo's fairground haunted-house attraction show. 8/10

We've got the house all decorated up and the candy purchased in advance of Thursday's festivities. It'll be our first Halloween in our new house, lots of kids on our street, so we're ready for some costumed fun.

My daughter is at a party tonight, with an excellent werewolf costume. She and my wife are fans of special effects and stuff like that, so they got some great fur, claws, and makeup.

I hope this image from the Hammer film doesn't remind anyone of their wife or girlfiend when they are angry.    7/10

Been a couple of years but this year I'll revive my old tradition of watching Millennium's The Curse Of Frank Black again...that's my favourite Halloween episode of all time...

[Typhon]

A writer of horror stories (John Carradine) is invited to a "monster club" by a mysterious old gentleman (Vincent Price). There, three gruesome stories are told to him; between each story appropriate song are played for the evening's entertainment.  Made by one of the former owners of Amicus Studios, this film has a strong cast, fine sets, and a great mix of horror and black comedy.  Probably my favorite Halloween-time movie. 8.5/10
