Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 12th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
I have the first season of Ash vs. The Evil Dead on BD and I'm thinking of expanding my Challenge to TV for the first time. I usually stick strictly with movies. Any thoughts on how much I might enjoy this series if I'm fan of all three original movies?

I was looking for a good app for the computer but I may just stick with streaming it through a window unless there is an advantage to doing it thru an app on the PC.

I decided to try Halloween Radio.Net and love it. I just heard the funniest song, Omar The Vampire. This blows Google Play's Halloween radio selection out of the water.

Just a quick question but why was Phantasm picked as a subset pick when a much superior version is coming out in December? I would have rather saved this viewing for next year so we would have the best presentation to watch. Not complaining but just curious.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 12th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
Thanks, I'll give it a shot and watch a couple of episodes. If I enjoy them, I might try to marathon the entire season during the Challenge. And one of these years I might check out the remake.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 12th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
I understand Phantasm was picked specifically on October 7th because that is when the new movie and remastered editions will be available on pay per title to rent or own streaming services like iTunes, Vudu, etc. Technically the superior versions will be available on that date, just not on physical media.

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 12th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
Phil (Balloo) Harris-"The Thing"
The Crossfires-"Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde"
Roy Haydock-"Halloween" (I love the female voice on this)
The Makers-"Death of Mr. Monster" (I think Castlevania ripped this off!)
There was one werewolf song that drove my dog crazy with it's constant howling I didn't catch what it was called though. I also never knew "Goo Goo Muck" was an oldie. I always thought it was a Cramps original.
And some of the Big Band songs are interesting. You've heard of pre-code movies. But I think I've heard some pre-code songs!

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 12th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
We could always put "listen to horror audio (podcast, audiobook, etc.)" on the checklist as an optional entry.
This. And what better film to represent R.I.P Angus Scrimm day than the film that put him on the map?

Re: 100 Movies. 31 Days. The 12th Annual "October Horror Movie Challenge" (10/1 - 10/
Comet TV is showing some Godzilla movies, Rodan, and Outer Limits all day today. Terror of Mechagodzilla is on right now. http://www.comettv.com/watch-live/
I know this isn't horror either but I watched Pit Stop last night and Sid Haig was pretty great in it. The whole movie ended up being really good. I was hesitant at first because it looks like a race movie but the8 drama and stuff ends up being outside the races. They show some actual racing but those scenes aren't so long as to make non-race fans get bored. On the other hand, if you're coming in to watch a race car movie, you'll probably be disappointed by all the acting and story.

Went out shopping today, and it really seems like retailers are scaling back their Halloween inventories. You couldn't swing a dead cat over your head without knocking into a cardboard stand full of horror movie collection DVDs a few years ago. Does the holiday just not bring in as many bucks as it did in past years?

I think it starts off playing songs and then morphs into "scary noises" once Halloween hits. With all their available bandwidth you'd think they would offer more than one channel like with the Christmas music. And last year it didn't even start until 10/19. But yeah, it sucks.

I understand Phantasm was picked specifically on October 7th because that is when the new movie and remastered editions will be available on pay per title to rent or own streaming services like iTunes, Vudu, etc. Technically the superior versions will be available on that date, just not on physical media.

Does this count as horror? If so, I'll have a chance to check out the new BD!

Anyone that's planning to buy a movie at Vudu should probably wait until the annual Halloween sale. It usually starts around the middle of the month.

Any idea if we'll be able to rent it? I'd like to watch the remastered version, but I might end up getting the boxset down the road.

Speaking of Phantasm, those of you with cable or satellite have some other choices. The first, third and fourth will be showing on Syfy. Yeah, not the best option, but it's an option that won't require additional investment.
Phantasm II will be airing on Cinemax and is on demand. It obviously won't be better quality than the Blu-ray but not a bad option for those of us who never picked it up because we weren't sure if the first would ever get released.

I have the SD version in my Vudu library. I must have bought the old version a long time ago, and they switched it over to the new Remastered version. It looks pretty good. I don't have anything to compare it to, but I don't remember the movie looking this good in the past. And the audio is 5.1 DD+. I think the previous audio was 2.0 stereo.

The first season 2 episode of Ash vs Evil Dead is up for free on Starz if you can't wait until Sunday's premiere.
