I put a spell on you and now you're mine!
Raymond has never seen this 90's Halloween classic - Hocus Pocus (1993)
300 years ago the Sanderson sisters were hung for the crime of witchcraft, the murder of a little girl and the presumed murder of a teenage boy. Today they're the stuff of legend in the town of Salem. New in town is Max who doesn't believe the hype but he'll do anything to connect with his crush Allison, so they, along with Max's little sister Dani investigate the old Sanderson house where they unwittingly bring the witches back from the dead. Winnie (Bette Middler), Sarah (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Mary (Kathy Najimy) continue on their quest to suck the lives out of all the children of Salem with only Max and the gang to stop them.
So get your Halloween costume on, heed advice from black cats and don't open the book as we shake our heads in disbelief - after all "it's just a bunch of Hocus Pocus" (1993).

"The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life..."
I'm joined by two very special guests, my parents. The people who got me into horror and this week we're doing the movie I was named after - Jacob's Ladder (1990)
Jacob Singer (Tim Robins) is having a hard time keeping his life together. He's estranged from his now ex-wife Sarah, lives with his new girlfriend Jezzie and barely sees his kids. He often finds himself trapped in daydreams of his time in the Vietnam war and sees flashes of his dead son Gabe (Macaulay Culkin). But that's not all as his world becomes haunted by faceless figures that jitter in the shadows - he begins to suspect that he's become a target for the Demons of Hell.
So get your palm read, say goodnight to the kids and "Oh yeah, wait a minute Mr. Postman!" as we climb the rungs of Jacob's Ladder (1990)

There is no cure for madness.
Shawn has brought along a movie with one hell of a cast - Stonehearst Asylum (2014)
Young doctor Edward Newgate (Jim Sturgess) arrives at Stonehearst Asylum to learn the ways of a 19th century Alienist under the tutelage of Dr Lamb (Ben Kingsley). But it isn't long until he begins to realize that things at the Asylum have gone horribly wrong. One of the patients Eliza (Kate Beckinsale) warns him that they've recently come under new management and this is compounded as Edward discovers the staff including Dr. Salt (Michael Caine) - the previous head Doctor - locked in cells beneath the institute. It's a race against time as functionality begins to crumble while Edward does his best to not arouse suspicion and keeps things ticking along.
So be careful who you touch, be sure to use your eyes and keep strong in a battle of wills as we're admitted to Stonehearst Asylum (2014)

You know you don't have to listen to the voices in your head.
After our last heavy-hitting movie Pip and I decided to do something a little more fun - The Voices (2014)
Jerry (Ryan Reynolds) hears voices....namely coming from Bosco his dog and Mr. Whiskers his cat. But he deals with it because when he does take his medication the world is grey and uninviting. At work he falls in love with Fiona, a British woman in accounting and cannot see that Lisa (Anna Kendrick) definitely has a thing for him. It's a comedy of a love-triangle that's all fun and games until someone trips and gets accidently stabbed over and over again.
So never forget to feed your pets, make some room in the fridge and sing yourself a happy song as we try to ignore all The Voices (2014)

Together with David, Mark and Kay they set out into the Amazon to find the rest of the remains and determine if this is the missing link.

It could be literally anyone!
We're back with arguably one of the last quintessential slasher movies. Thank you Kat - Scream (1996)
One year after her Mother's death Sydney (Neve Campbell) is still struggling to come to terms with what happened and the crazed killer who now sits on trial. Meanwhile a new series of killings have just begun. Casey (Drew Barrymore) and her boyfriend are killed one night. Police are on the case but the suspects are too numerous and as more time passes, more bodies hit the floor. It could be any of the kids. It could be the rookie Deputy Dewey (David Arquette). It could the hungry for fame reporter Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox). Only time will tell as we solve the mystery...or at least try to survive the weekend.
So remember the rules of horror movies, ignore the ringing phone and don't trust anyone as we let out one last blood curdling Scream (1996)

Jess D and I are back again with an almost classic slasher - Jeepers Creepers (2001)
On their way home from college Darry (Justin Long) and his sister Trish are almost run off the road by a crazed van driver. They don't really think much of it until later when they see the driver dumping suspiciously wrapped packages down the rusted pipe of an abandoned building.

Cruel and unforgiving, Jeanne is left scarred and not even the love of Jean can make this right so she turns to a voice which promises her everything she desires and more.

The third floor is strictly out of bounds.
This week we're indulging in a ghost story as Dylan shows me - The Innkeepers (2011)
The Yankee Peddler is soon going out of business. The upper floors are already cleared out and they're down to a staff of two. Luke and Claire have found ways to entertain themselves though. They're on the hunt for the ghost of Madeline O'Malley who supposedly died in the hotel in a fit of passion and despair. You might say that some things are better left buried in the basement.
