31 Days Of Horror: Day 16

Originally presented as a children's movie, The Lost Boys presented an alternative to the already familiar and established vampire genre. Set in what was referred to as the "Murder Capital of the World" Santa Carla California, is the story of a divorcee, her two sons Michael and Sam moving in with her eccentric father to start a new life. If only they knew what was really in store for them.

Michael (Jason Patric) spots a gorgeous girl at an outdoor concert and is infatuated with her, Sam (Corey Haim) laughs at his brother then finds a comic book shop to browse in. Michael sees the "Lost Boys" and their leader David (Kiefer Sutherland) as the girl jumps on a motorcycle and leaves.

Michael buys a leather jacket and wants to get his ear pierced as Star (Jami Gertz) offers to pierce it for him. They are about to ride off into the night and David and The Lost Boys confront them.

I don't want to ruin the movie for you so please check out the 1987 classic, because I highly recommend it!

31 Days Of Horror: Day 15

I chose this movie because of the fun times I remember having in high school with my buddies and all of the goofy pranks we would pull. If we had been able to fight monsters like The Wolfman, Frankenstein's Monster and Dracula, we would've been "The Monster Squad"!

The Monster Squad is a fun filled adventure that combines kids and the monsters we grew up with. We would quote this movie just to make each other laugh. Especially when Mark Thomas saw a man get kicked in the balls and he said: Whoa, Wolfman's got nards! It didn't take much to entertain this group of friends and me. LoL!

31 Days Of Horror: Day 14

I had the opportunity to finally watch this movie and it's awesome! Set in the 1950's and starring Billy Connolly as Fido the zombie pet, this comedic horror movie is one I would suggest to anyone! Carrie-Anne Moss from The Matrix Trilogy plays the mother of a boy that gets picked on in school and one day gets a zombie as a pet. The fun starts from the get go and doesn't stop until the end of the movie.

31 Days Of Horror: Day 13

This suggestion came from Netflix and I was surprised to find out that this 1967 classic wasn't included with the other Rankin/Bass classic stop motion shows like Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer!

Mad Monster Party? is a show that I believe was for kids during Halloween and due to the horror movie monsters like Dracula and Frankenstein, was in the horror section of Netflix.

Boris Karloff and Phyllis Diller lend their voices to this campy spoof on the early horror movies that were made popular by Universal Studios. Movie monsters like The Creature from the Black Lagoon, The Werewolf, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and of course The Hunchback from Notre Dame.

It's really cool and I'm happy that I not only saw it but could review it and suggest it to all of you!
