I, too have annual Halloween parties/film festivals. I go all out and decorate the front three rooms of my home as a haunted house complete with a coffin I have had for years -- don't ask! and then show films in the den. I advertise 6:00-8:30 classic Universal monsters, including all of the Universal 8 400' digests (with added scenes from their 200' counterparts), and then from 8:30 more contemporary films. I pull out all of the horror films in my collection, and let the audience choose. Favorites have been "Dressed to Kill" (3X400), "The Exorcist" (3X400), "Phantasm," "Carrie" (2X400 - edited in sequence from the two United Artists digests), "The Omen," "Jaws" (2X400), "Dracula" (2X400 w/Frank Langella") etc. It makes for a fun night, and has been an annual event for three years now.
