Halloween Movie Night Musts

As promised, here is a list of movies that I try to watch every October. Obviously, I fail, lol. This list is MASSIVE. And before you go pointing out that I've missed some major movies, I am posting movies that I enjoy. You might be disappointed to know that I dislike Michael Myers and Jason. Sorry - just never been a fan of those. Now, get comfortable because this will be long. They will be divided into categories to make it a bit easier. I probably should have broken it down into monster/ghost/demon/etc but I have a life.

Nothing is in any particular order but if you have any questions as to which has the best story (or might scare the crap out of you) feel free to comment below.
