I have Dracula 200' and Creature from the Black Lagoon 400' 3D. Sadly no Universal horror classics as feature lengths.

I also have Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. Not sure which one I'll go with for screening.

What are you planning on?

Mine's the same every year, and I wouldn't change it for a moment ...

All scope features ...

The Fog
Alien
Poltergeist

Now, THAT'S a night of fun!!!

Actually, I do one feature one night with Halloween cartoons, and a double feature on the second night.

My Halloween Film Night program that has just been mailed out. All films are super 8, except a digital showing of Twilight Zone.

Psycho 400'
The Birds 400'
T&J - Dr Jekyll & Mr Mouse 200'
and finally:
The Cat and the Canary - 4x400' Reg 8 silent (separate soundtrack played along it).

This is not 100% final, I have had requests for "Jaws" (2x400 on 1x800') and might replace the first two with this, and add another 200', making it a Jaws-Canary double feature with two shorts first.

My Halloween films will be:

Trick or Treat 200ft sound
Night on bald mountain 400ft
Disney legend of sleepy hallow 800ft
Aliens full feature

I can't wait, I just hope the weather stays mild

Hi Guys,

not sure what I'll play - maybe a programme of cutdowns - Amityville Horror, The Uncanny, The Omen and Damien Omen 2 and finish with the 3x 400ft copy of The Exorcist. Or I could do a Hammer triple bill of features - The Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula and The Mummy or maybe - Scope features of Poltergeist and Halloween.

For a while, with my last remaining son still at home, we used to run the Universal thirties and forties favourites over Halloween (on DVD, sorry, my cut downs went years ago!). Now he's got his own family, so I just dip my toe in if the mood takes me. Nice to know that it's all still happening for many of you.
Incidentaly. I don't know when the Castle cutdowns first came out, but I remember having fun running my 8mm print of 'Bride' onto the house opposite. Don't know if anyone noticed!
