Holiday themed movies are hard to pull off, especially when it comes to Halloween. You want to appeal to the kids, yet at the same time not come across as an idiot when addressing the dark themes of costumes, ghosts, and begging strangers for candy.
Today we’re looking at the worst Halloween themed films ever made, Paul Lynde’s Halloween TV special and classic films that feature Halloween as a theme.
Joining us is the ghoulish gal from San Francisco Peaches Christ, who has been busy holding a movie festival for the best independent horror films with her gal pal Elvira, Mistress of the Dark.
Join us for this and all the ghoulish news–

I’ve watched many of those on YouTube.
Oh awesome! I love those films! I just watched the original Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark – with Kim Darby and Jim Hutton with uncle Charley as the maintenence guy lol —
Hocus Pocus was MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER!!!!!! I would watch it over and over when I was a kid and I had a crush on the guy in the movie. So glad you brought it up. I’ll probably watch it before Halloween.
As always, I had a BLAST being on the show and I only hope this podcast helps bolster the struggling Felching Straw industry.
You mean you didn’t buy out their whole supply for your personal use?
50 Shades of Halloween sounds like it will be fun ^_^ Looking forward to it.
perv
fun show!
awh man I loved Hocus Pocus as a kid. Watched it so many times. I haven’t seen it in a long time, and I know it’s a awful movie, but I think I could still enjoy watching it now because of the nostalgia factor. I had a lot of good childhood memories of watching it.
unfortunately for me I haven’t done anything to celebrate Halloween in many years since I have no one to celebrate it with, and celebrating Halloween alone is just boring and lame.
Scare kids in your neighborhood. That’s always fun.
Does the Peaches Christ mask come with a microchip or a piece of Stonehenge imbedded in it? http://store.peacheschrist.com/products/105-peaches-costume-mask.aspx
Also, may you all live so long to have Peaches Christ call you an “idiot” in a national forum!
Have added Trick R’ Treat to my queue, cheers Peaches! Not sure about Trick OR Treat, I’ve watched quite a few bad movies lately, more even than I usually do!
Attempting my third Halloween in New Zealand. It’s still kind of a new thing here; a lot of people are suspicious of its “American”ness, and a lot of kids don’t bother dressing up before going door to door, which DOES make it just begging for candy, sorry kids.
