Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; But the silence was unbroken, and the stillness gave no token, And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, “Lenore?” This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, “Lenore!”— Merely this and nothing more. Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning, Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before. “Surely,” said I, “surely that is something at my window lattice; Let me see, then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore— Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore;— ’Tis the wind and nothing more!” Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter, In there stepped a stately Raven of the saintly days of yore; Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door— Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door— Perched, and sat, and nothing more. Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling, By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore, “Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,” I said, “art sure no craven, Ghastly grim and ancient Raven wandering from the Nightly shore— Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night’s Plutonian shore!” Quoth the Raven  Welcome one and all, to the official  Scream Scream thread for this October. What started as a way to celebrate Halloween with a few online friends has grown into a yearly tradition that I want to share with everyone. If you love horror movies and the season of the witch even half as much as I do, or if you just want to hang out with some goons and watch movies this October, you'll fit right in. Now, let me explain how this works.Every Friday, Saturday and Sunday for all of October, at 8:30 EST, I'll be streaming two horror films a night, along with some other light halloween-themed entertainment to break it up. The stream is hosted on this Ustream channel, and sometimes here when Ustream decides it wants to suck(I previously used connectcast as backup, but they've completely changed their TOS and are horrid now). That's a minimum of 24 horror films for the whole of the month, a worthwhile celebration of the best of all holidays. Except this month, due to the calendar being weird, we're doing two extra nights, starting this Saturday. So that's 28 films total! What a bargain! Every Scream Stream has its own Scream Theme, and this year the theme of the films shown will be "Based on the award-winning novel". I'll be streaming films adapted from books or short stories all month. Some of the most iconic horror films ever made are based on novels, but so are some lesser-known gems (and a few not so great ones). For variety's sake, I've limited the Stephen King and Clive Barker adaptations to 2 per writer. Sorry guys, you get enough exposure as it is! The usual disclaimer applies that I haven't seen everything I'll be streaming, so surprises are in store for all of us. As is tradition, I'll also be showing something after the second movie for you night owls.  A candid photo of me doing research for this year's lineup But the fun of the Scream Stream doesn't just stop at watching awesome horror movies with cool and handsome people! We also have prizes! What kind of prizes? Well how's about :  Every single Friday night, you'll have your chance to enter a raffle to win a pizza that will be delivered on the following night, to enjoy while you watch your movies! You have to tune in for the details. Now, obviously, there won't be a raffle on the first 'bonus' week-end, but every week after that is Pizza City! Here are some satisfied winners from the past:       I love doing the Scream Stream every year, and I hope to see some new faces along with the regulars this go-round. So here's to another October filled with gore, thrills, good friends, delicious pizza, and other ghoulish delights!

Choco1980 posted:3 and 5, respectively. The whole series (I want to say 7?) is doofy, with different things brought to the table. 4, 5, and 7 are all godawful however. 4 is just a lovely low budget remake of the first one, which is pretty weird considering it was only made 7 years later. All anyone ever remembers from it is the aggressively slutty shopkeeper. They're actually up to 8 now. I'm sure the DTV 8th one from 2011 is a masterpiece.

The Bargain and Werewolf of Hollywood are supposed to be some of the best episodes and only the latter was really compelling. I may be holding Monsters to an unfair standard by comparing it with the 90s Outer Limits and Tales from the Crypt, but I really don't think it has enough in the tank to sustain the post-show. It's not a good sign when the kid's show shown right before it has more punch and production values to its episodes. I hope the replacement feature I picked is well-received.

Pennywise the Frown posted:edit: Lurdiak, do I have to sign up for paypal or something to give you money? I've evaded signing up for that for many years. Is that the only way? You do, but it's possible to sign up for paypal without linking it to any bank accounts or verifiable personal information if you simply link a prepaid credit card to it, if that's a concern. I mean I guess you could give me a bank-to-bank e-transfer too but that'd be weird. If you want to be entered in this week's pizza raffle you got about til 5:30 PM to do so.

Yeah I don't think anyone had a bad word to say about it, it's a straight gem of a film. Man, I love doing the Scream Stream every year but I gotta say I'm glad I only do it 3 nights a week, setting aside like 7 hours of my day to stream internet movies is a little demanding.

I showed Howling 5 in the Sequel Stream, but it's a terrible film. I recommend The Beast Must Die! though, it's really fun and despite some obvious low budget drawbacks and cheesy acting, I really think it holds up. And hey, props for having a black lead in the early 70s who's not a jive-talker from the streets.
