A true bi-holiday classic -- the tale of Jack Skellington, king of Halloweentown, who becomes enamored of Christmas and decides to take over the holiday for one year. Unfortunately, the Halloween community... just isn't suited to Yuletide fun. Macabre, sick and hilarious.

Not so much funny as witty and slightly acidic: an adaptation of Mary Roberts Rinehart's classic play about a spinster writer and her maid, who find themselves targeted by the sinister "Bat" -- who wants something hidden in their house.

Guillermo del Toro's adaptation of Mike Mignola's "Hellboy" is all about two things: Big gross monsters, and snappy delicious dialogue ("Rotten eggs and the safety of mankind"). A fun and potentially apocalyptic action movie, with just the right amount of kitten-loving demons and Lovecraftian tentacles.

Consider it the Chinese version of a haunted-house movie -- a bunch of half-siblings are called in to their late father's vast old mansion, only to discover that someone (or something) is trying to kill them off. Also, they all have to hug each other if they want to inherit his vast estate. Almost as funny as it is creepy. Not for beephobics.

A deliciously macabre little stop-motion musical, which actually succeeds in making the world of the dead more entertaining than that of the living. A young man rehearsing his upcoming wedding accidentally affiances himself to the Corpse Bride....

A dark comedy with a deliciously sick twist: an inn that's never had any guests suddenly gets a bunch... and every one of them dies in a freak accident or commits suicide. Desperate to save their business, the family starts burying the bodies... but you can't hide this sort of thing forever. The original that "Happiness of the Katakuris" is based on.

A gloriously sick zombie comedy that is almost as fun as it is gross -- Shaun is so wrapped up in his love life woes that he doesn't notice that the populace of London are turning into zombies. Now he and his friends must escape the undead hordes, using cricket bats and old vinyl records!

Who ever knew sheep were so scary? A guy returns to the family sheep farm to discover that genetic experimentation has turned the sheep into zombie carnivores that turn humans into sheep monsters! Fear the sheep!

Charlie Brown and his friends go trick-or-treating one Halloween night, while Linus tries to prove his faith in the Great Pumpkin by sitting all night in the patch. Classically sweet, funny and a teeny bit sad.

The emperor of all funny Halloween movies -- Mel Brooks' timelessly hilarious tale of Baron Von Frankenstein's relentlessly rational grandson, who finds himself inexorably drawn into the Frankenstein family legacy. Unfortunately, he ends up with some new problems of his own when he creates a monster.
