Every October, it's a tradition to watch the original John Carpenter's Halloween, but what about the horror movies the characters are watching in Halloween? It's a familiar trope, the movie within the movie, something to compliment what's actually happening in the film. It could be a tribute to the movies the director grew up, but could there be more of a reason why these movies are on the TV? Is there a reason why Carpenter chose The Thing (1951), Forbidden Planet, and Night of the Living Dead specifically, or, was it all at random? That's what I'm investigating today!
Marvel recently put out a surprise Halloween special Werewolf by Night on Disney Plus. Based off of the classic horror comics, it's presented in black and white and has the cozy feeling of an old Universal Monster monster movie. I liked it, but was taken aback a little because it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. So let's get into it!
I just love those Spirit Halloween stores, there was nothing like this when I was a kid. Now, every season, they pop up, just kind of appear out of nowhere... like a spirit. Well what if all of the costumes and animatronics inside it came to life? What if you were locked in a Spirit Halloween and things started attacking? Well it’s now a movie. It’s a perfect concept, but is the execution as good as the idea? Let’s take a look.

James reviews a selection of Roger Corman films in memory of his passing earlier in the year.
Happy Halloween! This month we’ve been paying tribute to Roger Corman and remembering all the great films and inspiration he’s given us. Today, I chose something that might seem off the beaten path, but is actually special in many ways. It’s the perfect choice to bring Halloween, horror-marathons and Roger Corman all together, and it’s also celebrating an anniversary. 25 years ago, on Halloween weekend, Roger Corman hosted AMC’s MonsterFest and premiered an exclusive made-for-TV film The Phantom Eye.
