Is anyone actually NOT watching Halloween this week?

<font color="orange">Monday</font color="teal">
Captain Kronos - Vampire Hunter - (1974)
Frankenstein And The Monster From Hell - (1974)
100 Years of Horror - (1996)- Great horror documentary hosted by Christopher Lee that was originally on VHS coming in at around 343 minutes. The DVD has been edited down to just under 1 hour and 40 minutes, and was taken from the original 13-volume VHS set. Aside from the full-frame and somewhat grainy transfer, it really is well worth worth looking at if you're a horror fan. Hopefully the entire set will someday make it to DVD.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown - (1966) - 10/10
