i know this is probably a bit late, but what do you guys like to listen to during the halloween season? of course, i do not mean those damn "scary sound efx" cds.

i've been listening to my misifts boxset like a mofo this week and i'm loving it. it seems to be just perfect for this week's festivities. any other suggestions?

okay, so i'm thinking i should've expanded this thread further so it could also include movies, parties, and whatever anybody else likes to do this year.

personally, every october 30th i watch the crow (the original of course, as i like to pretend the sequels don't exist). then i was thinking on halloween and this weekend watching: evil dead 2, halloween (original, with tv footage added in), the nightmare before christmas, dawn of the dead.. either way, it should be fun media-wise.

Can't vouch for as I'm going to see it for the first time tomorrow, but... "28 Days Later".

How about Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries from Die Walkure.

Seriously, though, I don't think there's anything about Halloween that makes we want to listen to a certain song, watch a certain movie, etc. Maybe I'm just boring or something

I used to like to listen to "Every Day is Halloween" by Ministry (before I sold that cd, of course. Bad call there, I'm afraid) Black Sabbath's first one is also some very good Halloween music.

How about...

The Night of the Hunter

or Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf?

To put me in the mood,

Music:
Sonic Youth - Confusion is Sex
or
The Residents - The Third Reich 'n' Roll

Movie:
Dr. Strangelove
or
Suspiria

I haven't decided yet...

I don't know about scary but "Concrete Blonde" stuff always reminds me of halloween.

Spooky CDs that kick sweet arse :

Chiller – Spine-tingling Music (Telarc)
Eiji Oue - Mephisto & Co (Reference Recording)

and these soundtracks :

Omen - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
Omen II – Damien The Deluxe Edition

I mostly like to listen to any thing that has horror/gore, mostly Cage, Necro, ill bill.

A few years ago I rented the DVD "From Dusk till Dawn" on a Halloween evening, in there was a scene where Selma Hayek performed a sexy dance to a band singing a song called After Dark. The song stayed with me well after the movie was over, and I hunted down the CD that has it - "Tarantism", by the band Tito and Tarantula.

Since then, every year around Halloween time I play the song a lot. In fact, I have it on right at this moment.



Cheers,

King Diamond is doing a Halloween show here in Milwaukee. Too bad I can't go. His is the first name that comes to mind when I think "Halloween music."

Release the Bats by The Birthday Party is my Fav Halloween ditty..
and Grinch's idea of watching The (orig.) Crow is an excellent plan...Looks like I'm all set...

 

[grinch]

the crow was great, as per usual. while in my car last night i found another great halloween band that i had completely forgotten about: type o negative.
