Halloween (2007 reboot directed by Rob Zombie): Michael Myers is one of the most frightening serial killers to grace the horror movie genre and Rob Zombie’s reboot put this franchise into another zone. Rob Zombie’s 2007 reboot shows you how Michael Myers became the psycho we all enjoy to watch. This version is graphic and the scenes can make some people very scared. A perfect halloween movie!

Friday The 13th (all 12): Jason Vorhees, everyones favourite hockey mask wearing serial killer entertains in all twelve movies in this franchise. We had a blog on the franchise back in July (Friday the 13th, 2012) which can be viewed here. Since 1980, the Friday The 13th franchise has delighted horror movie fans and given halloween season something to look forward to. Regardless of which one you watch, you will be entertained from start to finish. One of the most famous movies would be Freddy vs. Jason (yes they battle!)

The Last House On The Left (1972): This is the movie that started the slasher genre. Yes the 2009 reboot was good but this 1972 classic is the one to watch. When this was first released, it scared the living pants off of movie goers. We guarantee that 39 years later, this movie will creep you out even more than the reboot.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974): We all enjoy the 2003 reboot however the original is fascinating. Psycho chainsaw killer Leatherface was in all his glory in the original version. This is not a true story however the marketing behind this movie was so well done that people thought it was true. To this day, I am worried about driving through Texas! If you want to be scared this halloween, do yourself a favour and watch this version.

A Nightmare On Elm Street (All 9 of them): Freddy Kruger, the razor blade glove wearing teen killer only attacks you in your dreams. So if you are easily scared you may not want to watch any of these because if you dream about it, you may think he will be after you! The 2010 reboot had elements of greatness but if you really want to enjoy this franchise, stick with the original eight. The original is a fan favourite and that is highly recommended (see the trailer below). Don’t forget that Freddy vs. Jason pits Freddy Kruger and Jason Vorhees for an all out battle.

So here are some of the best slasher movies to scare you this halloween season. With the blog from last week, part 1 featuring paranormal halloween movie favourites, you have great movies to watch for the first time or for some of you, once again. Please ensure you are a fan of this genre as these movies are not for everyone. Have a safe and happy halloween weekend everyone.

The four films that make up Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures are:

1) Raiders Of The Lost Ark, released in 1981, (retitled Indiana Jones & The Raiders of The Lost Ark in 1999), directed by Steven Spielberg, produced by George Lucas, and starring Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones.  The film is based in 1936 and shows Indiana fighting off a group of  Nazi’s who are in search of the Ark Of The Covenant.  For the Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures Blu-ray, original sound designer Ben Burtt has preserved the sound of the film from his original master mix. All new stereo sounds were created using the original music tracks and effects that were originally done in mono. The original negatives were scanned at 4K and then carefully examined frame by frame to repair any damages that may have occurred since 1981.

2) Indiana Jones & The Temple Of Doom, released in 1984 & is in actuality the prequel to Raiders Of The Lost Ark.  Set in 1935, Indiana finds himself in Northern India where local residents believe he is sent from one of their gods to find their sacred Sivalinga stones.

3) Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, released in 1989, starring Sean Connery as Indiana’s father, (a Holy Grail scholar). Set in 1939, Indiana is in search for his father who has been captured by Nazi’s as they search for the Holy Grail.

4) Indiana Jones & The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull, released nineteen years later in 2008 as the final movie in this franchise. This film takes place in 1957 detailing how Indiana fights Soviets looking for a paranormal alien crystal skull.

All four films will be in 1080p high definition and the sound is remixed in 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio making  Indiana Jones: The Complete Adventures a must own Blu-ray for any home theater system. For more information on Indiana Jones, please visit the official website here.
