From the classics to more modern movies, there is no better way to celebrate the day after Halloween than sitting in the comfort of your own home and watching a scary movies. This weekend is the best time of year to revisit the best horror flicks with your friends and family, so here are our recommendations.

Halloween III: Season Of The Witch (1982)

It would be easy to start with the first movie in the series of Halloween movies, which has become a classic, but I think Halloween III: Season Of The Witch

is one of the jewels of horror films in the series. Michael Myers doesn't star in this one, but something very interesting is portrayed: What would happen if black magic combined with technology?

Halloween III: Season Of The Witch was a breath of fresh air for the genre when it first came out, but the shado of Michael Myers kind of cast a shadow on the film.

Shaun Of The Dead (2004)

The first, and possibly the best of the Cornetto Trilogy by Edgar Wright, Shaun Of The Dead is a sort of romantic comedy with zombies added to the mix. This is still a classic when it comes to Zombies and is a very fun movie to watch if you are in the mood for humor and gore at the same time.
