31 Day Halloween/Horror Movie Challenge Day 15: Favorite Horror Movie of the 1980s A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET Gosh, this was a hard one. Product of the 70s and child of the 80s, I cut my teeth on the horror of this decade. I have so many “favorites” depending on the mood I’m in! But, if I had to choose just one movie that, looking back, brought a fresh feel to the horror genre and really (I mean REALLY) scared me as a kid, I’d have to go with A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. I was in the 3rd grade when I first saw it and my best friend, Cari, and I would obsessively quote it and draw pictures of Freddy Krueger all the time.... our parents probably should have been concerned. Good thing we turned out okay! And don’t get me started on my first movie crush, Johnny Depp, all clean cut and preppy in this role (yes, I lost interest the skankier he got). Freddy terrified me! The first 30 minutes of the movie, to me, are the scariest and are a complete (for lack of better terms) nightmare! As the series progressed, Freddy spoke more and was quite humorous, and I didn’t find the series as appealing anymore. He became more of a pop culture hero and although I don’t mind pop culture icons, I do mind when they’re were originally meant to be scary and instead have become heroic in their entertainment. Just the same, the original “nightmare” is tops for me as far as the 80s go. #anightmareonelmstreet #favoritehorrormovieofthe80s #31daysofhalloween #31dayhorrormoviechallenge #movie #horror #freddykrueger

31 Day Halloween/Horror Movie Challenge Day 13: Favorite Horror Movie of the 1960s PSYCHO It’s a classic movie, with classic scenes and classic lines. There’s nothing supernatural about any of it which makes this film far scarier than most. It’s almost believable. This movies makes motels as well as Mother/Son relationships creepy as all get out. “A boy’s best friend is his mother.” #psycho #31daysofhalloween #31daysofhalloween #halloween #moviechallenge #aboysbestfriendishismother #normanbates #batesmotel #besthorrormovieofthe60s

31 Day Halloween/Horror Movie Challenge Day 12: Favorite Horror Movie of the 1950s THE TINGLER Never seen it? Heard of it? You are missing out. Not because it’s super scary, but because its campiness will leave you in stitches. It came in at the tail end of the 1950s, staring Vincent Price. Ah, Vincent Price.... I almost chose THE HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL for this category, but THE TINGLER is far more entertaining for me. I would occasionally catch it in the middle of the morning on some random channel. The first time I ever saw it was with my dad right before the lunch hour, before Days of Our Lives came on. The only thing that can save you from “the tingler” is if you scream... and this movie even allows audience participation... You just have to check it out for yourself. And yes, it’s very family friendly. 😂 #thetingler #31daysofhalloween #31daymoviechallenge #horrormovies #halloween #vincentprice #melissaellis #musiciansofinstagram

31 Day Halloween/Horror Movie Challenge Day 11 (a day late): Favorite Ghost Story/Movie THE LADY IN WHITE I love basic ghost stories. They’re not too complicated and they’re typically the most “family friendly” movies one can find out there around Halloween. So, I had a tough time choosing.... should I pick THE OTHERS? I enjoyed the plot twist it provided. POLTERGEIST? I mean, in essence, that’s a great ghost story too. But THE LADY IN WHITE... it makes me feel young again. Maybe because the story centers around a little boy (cute little Lucas Haas and his big ears) in the 1960s (though I’m a child of the 80s) and his encounter with a ghost one Halloween night when he gets locked in a school cloak room due to a bad prank. The banter between the two brothers remind me of my sisters and me growing up. I love seeing the characters interact with one another, it feels so realistic. But the story is fantastic. Not too scary, but eerie. And never, since “The Headless Horseman”, has a Bing Crosby song been so creepy. #theladyinwhite #ghoststories #31daysofhalloween #31daymoviechallenge #halloween #horror #melissaellis #musiciansofinstagram
