16 Movies That Are Perfect For Any Halloween Movie Marathons

It's that time of year again. Halloween is almost here, which means you'll want to have some horror movie marathons. And for that, you'll need some of the best Halloween movies you will ever watch.

Here's a list. Some are classics, some remakes. Luckily, they are all SCAREtastic!

1. "Nightmare on Elm Street"

This is a classic halloween movie, and it still holds tried and true when it comes to being scary.

2. "Halloween"

It wouldn't be Halloween if you didn't watch a movie so very fitting — with the name of our favorite holiday included!

3. "Carrie"

The original and the remake are both so well done. This will make you think about high school, and that is scary enough.

4. "Monster House" 

Yes, it is animated. But that does not mean anything. It is a great movie, and if you want to involve the whole family, this is a good choice.

5. "The Nightmare Before Christmas"

This is another movie you can watch with your family that will still get the job done.

6. "Coraline"

"Coraline" can be interpreted in so many different ways. There are so many conspiracies that revolve around this movie, and it's really interesting.

7. "It"

The classic and the remake are both FANGtastic. The twists in both of them are eerie.

8. "Scream"

Scream is a classic “teenage scary movie," but it's still a good movie! Stop hating, and start screaming!

9. "The Addams Family"

It's a comical spooky movie... and who doesn't love those?

10. "Beetlejuice"

A striped black and white pant suit is pretty scary, don't you think?

11. "Casper"

This is such a cute movie. Gather your family, sit down and enjoy this one.

12. "The Conjuring" 

Since it is based on a true story, that makes it even scarier.

13. "Annabelle"

Dolls are super creepy. And a killer doll? Good luck.

This one's also based on a true story.

14. "Hocus Pocus"

This is everyone's favorite Halloween movie. I don't care what you say. SARAH JESSICA PARKER, I LOVE YOU!!!

15. "Rocky Horror Picture Show"

I'll just leave this suggestion here.

16. "The Sixth Sense"

Do you have more than five senses?

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
