Time to get my Halloween viewing list ready...
While everyone else is picking movies, I'm watching a collection of old tv shows/specials. Here's the list, in no particular order:
1) Garfield's Halloween Adventure
2) Witch's Night Out
3) The Great Bear Scare
4) Simpson's Treehouse of Horror - just a bunch of the earlier installments
5) It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
6) Bugs Bunny's Howl-O-Ween Special
7) Filmation's Ghostbusters - the dvd box set of this cartoon series was available in a number of DVD discount stores and I picked 'em up before they vanished. Good Deal!
8) The Batman vs. Dracula - spinoff of the underrated "The Batman" cartoon (2004-2008) which is actually a great Batman film and a great Dracula movie!
9) Ducktales episodes - Hotel Strangeduck, TheMasked Mallard and Ducky Horror Picture Show
10) DTV Halloween - part of a series of 80's Disney specials in which pop music was play over cartoon footage. Very YouTube before there was YouTube. The Halloween special is my favorite, but I don't have it complete (I had used the tape to record Ducktales episodes and the content erased the first 25 minutes of this special! The same fate happened with the Sport Goofy: Soccermania cartoon - which I would love to see on DVD or Blu-Ray some day)
11) Disney' Halloween Treat - I think I've got this on a tape somewhere...it's the only way - Disney tends to look forward - nostalgia is not te first thing on their plate. The tape might also have an episode of "Wonderful World of Disney" devoted to Disney villains. Hope I didn't erase that with some nonsense...
12) MTV Celebrity Deathmatch Halloween Special - this is just great fun
13) Donald Duck "Trick or Treat" - great Halloween cartoon short
Cartoons, cartoons, cartoons, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah...
I believe I've gone into overtime if I expect to watch all of this through the weekend at reasonable hours - I know there's lots more - maybe next year...
