This is from a Halloween in El Paso, TX. I was in the 1st grade so it’s probably 1992, maybe 91. From left to right, my cousin Guille (pronounced Gi-yeh) is Cruella de Vil, my sister Laura is the Karate Kid, my brother Oscar is Spidey, my cousin Ramon is a lawyer/business man? (he was a weird kid), and I of course was & currently am Batman (even then I was better than Affleck). We’re all at the Sunland Park Mall, trick or treating at all the stores. I don’t remember much else except the jewelry store that handed out “I Am Loved” buttons instead of candy. Joiks.

Mama (2008) dir. Andres & Barbara Muschietti
Today’s spooky video is the short the movie “Mama” (2013) was based on. I loved the feature, it’s probably one of my favorite movies of the year, and the short is great also. Really short, really scary. Enjoy!
Psycho (1960 & 1998) – Halloween Movie of the Week 10/18/2013
This week’s Halloween movie of the week is a twofer! I’ve never seen Alfred Hitchcock’s classic so I thought it would be perfect for the column. Just for fun I watched the remake as well which was, well, it was. More thoughts after the jump…
