[Moans Exclusive] Talking about my favorite horror and Hallowe'en movies! 🎃

Hi! With the Hallowe'en season upon us, I thought we could talk movies, like my favorite horror movies, including what I find most scary and my first experiences with the genre, AND the non-scary spooky films I love most as well.

Let me know what yours are in the comments. I don't really get into spoilers, and also don't discuss many scary/gory things in detail. 

Hope you enjoy!

I would say Aliens is better than the first movie. Its actually one of my favourite movies. So quotable ("Get away from her, you BITCH"!), such a great character script and the cast are amazing. Filled with tension, disappointment, failure, triumph, its iconic. Bloody love Aliens! x ... And The Mist! ;)

I put this one on during my commute today and I get to the part where he’s talking about a Halloween haunted house experience 🎃👻 where his friend’s mom who’s leading the spooky walkthrough suddenly goes “oh you better FUCKING RUN!!!” (9:57), sending a Nightcrawler-tail-costumed August and his fellow 13-yo-classmates 🏃🏻🏃🏼🏃🏽🏃🏾🏃🏿screaming and running for their lives (the imagery of that has got me cackling 😂). That line gave me major deja vu, and I’m like “where did I hear that from?” 🤔 I mean, it’s a typical enough phrase that I could probably have heard it from lots of places, but I just really felt like it came from somewhere very specific. Then it clicked that I had heard that line said with a similar cadence in the Masked Stranger 👺 (2:15)! Not sure if the audio line was inspired from the personal nostalgic experience of being scared the crap out of 😱, but if it was, that just adds a whole other very endearing layer to the audio 🥰

I was the only girl on my dad's side so naturally I was the scape goat for every prank. My cousins would wear extremely gory halloween masks and wake me up in the middle of the night with them. I couldn't watch a horror film alone until recently. I have to laugh about it now, but that shit was horrible when I was a kid lmao 🤣 😂 😭

Honestly I cannot handle horror at all🫠 my first scary film was Signs (lol I was 5 don't judge idk why my mom let me watch it i also lived on A FARM LIKE THE MOVIE) and it scarred me sooooo bad I never watched horror again until Hereditary with friends, drunk, on Halloween. That movie scarred me even worse understandably it's MUCH scarier than freakin Signs😂 if Midsommer stuck with you, so will Hereditary. Honestly the story is very good but absolutely wasn't for me. I still squirm thinking about it! I'm the same as you tho, I get too immersed and for me I get too emotionally attached so the horror feels like it's happened to me lol. And the visuals will haunt me forever. I will enjoy horror thru the lens of others only now and I much prefer my cozy shows and comfort movies lol

Oh and hands down best Halloween costume I ever did was when my friend and I dressed up as The 'Andy's from Hot Fuzz when we were like 17. Two teen 'girls' (we're both non-binary now) at a house party wearing jackets, shirts, ties, fake moustaches with fake cigarettes hanging out of our mouths while everyone else was in more standard Halloween attire (which is totally cool if that's what's fun/comfortable for you!). Spent a lot of the party in character doing the accents and messing around. That was really fun.

Over the Garden Wall is one of my favourite pieces of media, I love animation that's got an eerie vibe to it without being too heavy and while still being funny/silly. Plus the wonderful bonus of enjoyable, well done music and songs. Again I've chosen one thing specifically to comment about when there are several things mentioned I also enjoy but OTGW is a big one for me as an art/animation nerd. But yes Midsommar, Get Out, The Thing, Addams Family, probably a bunch of other stuff as well I'm forgetting, good shit.

i'm also late but since i'm really into movies i wanted to comment here i feel the same way about get out, i used to be quite prejudiced against horror movies because they had that stigma of jumpscare (i hate it lol) but that changed after this movie glad you mentioned what we do in the shadows (i laugh so hard), midsommar, silence of the lambs, the thing, alien and clue. those are such good movies! also, big fan of over the garden wall e grand budapest hotel here
