"Something Wicked This Way comes"
Story by Ray Bradbury with Jason Robards and Johnathan Pryce.
Yeah, yeah, it's a Disney movie but, to me, this movie is to hallowween what "A Christmas Story" is to Christmas. No grandiose special effects or bloodletting but it just oozes with atmosphere and erieness.

Hi,
Maybe I was just impressionable at the time, but The Exorcist scared me big time. As did The Haunting of Hill House. Something Wicked This Way Comes is a classic I agree. Jim |

Re-Animator IS weirdly goofy alright. For some reason, no-one can seem to get a Lovecraft story to the screen.

Lovecraft story's used to end up on Night Gallery in the 70's. For that matter didn't Harlan Ellison write some of the original Outer Limit's?

Isn't Altered States based on HPL's story The Ancestor? If it is not explicitly based on it, then it is either an uncredited theft of the story, or else an astonishing coincidence.
Dagon, although not faithfully based on any single HPL story, was a good creepy movie and IMO it really captured the mood of threat and revulsion that HPL wrote into his stories.

It continues to amaze me that someone doesn't take At The Mountains Of Madness and turn it into a killer big screen movie. Always thought it would translate very well. Quote:
