I’m feeling seriously nostalgic in anticipation for my Halloween movie marathon!
Add these classic horror-comedies to your list… or else! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!
Ok, ok, that was cheesy, but so are these movies. Enjoy!
Ghostbusters (1984)
Don’t cross the streams! Bill Murray & Dan Aykroyd spin comedy gold in one of my favorite movies of all time. With guest appearances by The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man & Slimer.
Army of Darkness (1992)
Ash’s epic catch phrases. A chainsaw arm. One boom stick. The unpronounceable Necronomacon. Give me some sugar, baby!
Hocus Pocus (1993)
Bette Midler totally outshines Sarah Jessica Parker, who was magically transformed into the whiny Carrie Bradshaw 5 years after this movie.
Beetlejuice (1988)
It’s Batman! Well, Michael Keaton before he played Batman. Plus, a very young Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis’s hair, and a 17-year-old Winona Ryder, all in this cult classic that never gets old, even when we do.
The Addams Family (1991)
And you thought YOUR family was dysfunctional.
Young Frankenstein (1974)
This is one of my favorite Gene Wilder flicks, directed by none other than Mel Brooks. Plus, check out Teri Garr’s knockers!
Death Becomes Her (1992)
Meryl Streep teaches Goldie Hawn a valuable lesson about what happens when your frenemy pisses you off…
Heathers (1988)
Like Mean Girls, with a touch of sociopathic Winona Ryder and a pre-90210 Shannen Doherty (who’s scary all on her own).
Honorable mentions: The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Scream, The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Evil Dead (& the Evil Dead 2)
