It’s Not Just About The Candy

There’s a lot of things I like about Halloween-

first of all

nobody thinks it’s weird that I have a  skeleton in my living room- sitting in a chair- by my phone-I bought him from Bucky’s Boneyard, I named him Edgar

I  also love the bite sized candy snacks because I’m not happy with sitting down and eating a boring old candy bar- I like them best with  wrappers decorated with bats and ghosts and zombies stamped on them.

Most of all I like anything dealing with Zombies because they are the dumbest monsters to ever be dreamed up and I take a certain weird pleasure in biting their candy heads off.

You know, before I do a little trephination.

But most of all I enjoy Halloween because of the movies-

the vendors put them all out there, old ones, new ones, whatever, which is good because they’re all good-in their weird way.

These are the best of the Strange and Weird-

And my personal favorites.

Enjoy!

Workers excavating at an underground station in London uncover the skeletal remains of ancient apes with large skulls. Further digging reveals what is at first believed to be an unexploded German bomb from World War II. Missile expert Colonel Breen is brought in to investigate, accompanied by Professor Bernard Quartermass. When the interior of the “missile” is exposed, a dead locust-like creature that resembles the devil is found. It is determined by Quartermass that these “locusts” are evil Martians who altered the brains of our simian ancestors to eventually lay claim to the Earth. When Quartermass’s suspicion that the missile can reactivate the dormant evil in humans is confirmed, all hell breaks loose.

And it wouldn’t be Halloween without

Arsenic and Old Lace.

I mean the story is about two sweet old ladies who are cold blooded killers

and they bury their victims in their basement

They also love to bake and celebrate Halloween.

What is there NOT to love about a story like this one?
