Happy Halloween!

Happy Fright Night, everyone!  Here's my Halloween roundup.

Eyes in Slow Motion



This has been going around the internets lately—it's a great celebration of everyday uncanniness that is perfect for Halloween.

Billy Cosby — Chicken Heart

A spooky tale from my all-time favorite storyteller, Bill Cosby.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

Because no holiday is complete without a morality play staring our favorite blanket-wielding do-gooder, Linus van Pelt.

But seriously, love this movie.

Rotting Pumpkin Time Lapse

Maybe more appropriate for a first week of November post?

Happy Halloween!

It's still not too late to carve up a jack-o-lantern and bake some Spiced Pumpkin Seeds.  Yum!

Stay safe, everyone.  See you in November!

Chilly Down

Don't got no problems
Ain't got no suitcase
Ain't got no clothes to worry about

Happy 25th birthday to Labyrinth! Jim Henson's classic fantasy adventure was released on June 27, 1986.

Is it me, or have good family movies gone by the wayside in the world of CGI? Not that computer-drawn cartoons don't have the potential—they certainly do. But the big-screen adventures of my childhood seem to have a whimsical quality, and a humanity, that's been lost. (See Exhibits A, B, C)

Also: Slashfilm posted an hour long documentary on the making of Labyrinth in celebration of the film's quarter-century.
