Well, it's Halloween again, folks! That time when we fire up our
cauldrons and our jack-o'-lanterns, and line the grocery stores for our Kit
Kats and costumes for the kiddos, all in anticipation of everyone's second favorite holiday of the year (or,
as we like to call it in the Lundberg home, The Night We Stock Up On Enough Stinking
Candy To Last Us Through Easter At Least). It is also the time for movies about ghouls, ghosts, and goblins
to flood our cinematic consciousness, and in keeping with tradition here at
FTWW, I wanted to do something fun for you guys as a countdown to the big
night.
This year, though, I wanted to make it a bit more personal, so
instead of offering up a generic list of Horror titles guaranteed to worm their
way into everyone's torture chamber at night, I've decided to share 31 (31 - get it?) of the biggest frights of my
entire movie-going experience - specific moments from specific films, in order
of intensity, which managed to scare the ever-living bejeebus out of me since I
first fell in love with movies as a kid.
