Halloween Flicks...
This is going to be a long post... I was in the web today looking for things to animate for Halloween when I came across a list of Horror Movies that will be on cable television all this month. Believe it or not the list below is not even half of the list I found but I thought it was a good group. For those who like Horror movies... especially around Halloween time, check out the list below and write down any movie, channel and time that you don't want to miss !!
Many are classics and if you've never seen them, now may be the time. They were the movies I watched that scared the doo doo out of me when I was a kid! They are OLD.. they contain some fantastic actors and actresses...they are black and white movies... and they are STILL scarey! If you have a chance to see them, you won't be sorry!.......
So, for your viewing pleasure.............

Hi, Pat.
I SO agree about Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte! We just rented that recently from NetFlix so my hubby could see it for the first time. He's not as accustomed to scary movies as I am and so I love scaring him. I waited until the spot where Charlotte sees the muddy feet at the top of the stairs, then I went BOO and poke him in the side. (Aren't I so mean haha?)
