Great list. The original DotD is an all-time fave on All Hallow's Eve. Also like Evil Dead II, Dead Alive and any cheesy giant insect/worm movie. :wink:

It's not horror, but my favorite movie to watch on Halloween is "The Nightmare Before Christmas".

Definitely old school Dawn of the Dead all the way. House of 1000 corpses is a good one for a party type vibe as well. It's crazy and moves fast. I just watched the Shining on dvd this past weekend, I had almost forgotten what a great movie it is.

Y'all might laugh, but The Sixth Sense always gives me chills. Perhaps its not full-on horror though.
