I've been watching assorted horror movies and other Halloween programs during October and especially over the past week, but tomorrow it gets kicked into overdrive!

What movie events do you folks have planned for the next two days of All Hallows Eve madness? :twisted:

An excellent schedule! I'd love to see others post their intended viewing celebrations.

A co-worker saw "30 Days" last night, and gave it a '10' ... coupled with your own plan to see it tomorrow, I'm thusly inspired to do the same. So, I'm going to slip in a screening tomorrow before my planned marathon.

Let's meet back here and compare notes!

Just wanted to clarify: "Vampire Secrets" is a four-hour presentation? And, this is different from "Uncovered: The Secret Live of Vampires"? Just wondered because I actually know a lady that is featured in "Uncovered".

The History Channel is showing Vampire Secrets as a 2-hour program.

Yes, let's meet back here tomorrow, and compare notes on 30 Days of Night. I think I may have a small time-window between that movie and Salem's Lot, or I can type during commercials on Charlie Brown. :D

Well, as fate would have it, the local theatre is showing "30 Days" at 1:15 also. I'll be running around before and after, so not sure if I'll be posting immediately after, but I will no later than 5-6 p.m. EST.

Making a quick pitstop before leaving again ...

Short and sweet: Not a fan of "30 Days of Night" ... a 3 out of 10 for me. Bypassing spoilers, I'll just mention my gigantic peeve about vampire movies: If these creatures suffer so greatly because of the hunger for blood, they should try DRINKING more than they SPLATTER.

Thankfully, my Universal Frankenstein marathon will get me back in a more festive mood.

OK, so I went to a local theater at 5pm for a chance to see Rob Zombie's Halloween on the big screen on Halloween, and I was the only person in the whole damn theater! Can you believe that? It was fun having the place all to myself without the usual noises and interuptions from rude people, but, of course, it also made it a little eerie too. I sat in the center of the back row under the projector. It was a great way to finish off this unholiday in style :twisted:
