the_andyI swear every year I make a Halloween watch list and I never follow through with it, but maybe this year will be different. I'm not actually big on horror exactly, but I do love monsters.
For starters, entirely unintentionally, my gaming group kicked off October with some properly themed board game: Betrayal at House on the Hill and King of Toyko, so I'm feeling good about staying on track this year.
wrdnrd and I have also been planning on re-watching Witch Hunter Robin. Pretty sure this will be our third time through and we'll see if it holds up. I remember liking it much more the second time when I knew the tonal shifts were coming and I do feel they kept it from getting mired in formulaic monster of the week territory.
I can't imagine I will go without watching The Lost Boys, cause I love that movie (it has two Coreys and a Kiefer!). May round out the month with the other not scary vampire movies I own: Blade and Fright Night. Perhaps cap it off with the always popular Big Trouble in Little China and Bubba Ho-Tep for some non-vampire monsters.
I usually talk about replaying Resident Evil 4, but maybe one of the Persona games would be better this year. Lord knows P3 had more than its fair share of messed up parts.
Oh, and Wild Zero, everyone's favorite no budget Japanese rock and roll zombie B movie.
Anything good I'm neglecting? What does everyone else watch for Halloween?
