Day 18 of 31 Days of Halloween!

I was challenged by my local Barnes & Noble to develop a list of 31 horror movies to watch, one a day for October. My only problem is that I couldn't pick just one.

For October 18, enjoy the following picks!

Horror Author Joe Chianakas pick-of-the-day:

THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE

It wouldn't be Halloween without this one, right?! Start with the original 1974 version and then watch the 2003 remake. I REALLY like the 2003 version. Haven't liked any other since that one, but I think it has the right characters and atmosphere to create a creepy, messed-up story. But start with 1974 and see what created the legendary story we have today.

Available on: 1973 version is on Showtime, the 2003 version is on SyFy as of the time of this post

Rabbit in Red pick-of-the-day (a movie referenced in my horror series):

SLEEPY HOLLOW

All right, first let me say that I'm not actually on Johnny Depp fan. Sorry. Dude is too weird for me. But back when this came out, I was a Depp fan. That's not what I like the movie. I like it for the atmosphere. It's dark and dreary, the kind of movie to watch on a cold, wet October night.

Available on: Netflix

The Magnificent Movie Emporium pick (join the movie group by clicking the link if you enjoy discussing your favorite movies!):

MIRRORS
