Halloween movies have room for a handmade husband and an outbreak heard through a radio microphone. Steve Stebbing’s picks offer a route through new releases and archive discoveries, with very different kinds of night in store.
The Neighbours Celebrate Christmas. The Husband Is Wicker.
A Christmas-obsessed family makes the holiday crossover a horror proposition, but does Christmas at the Kringles earn a recommendation? Wicker brings an entirely different marriage prospect, while Fatherland offers a compact, black-and-white departure from the Halloween mood.
Stay Inside the Radio Station
How much horror fits inside a radio station? Pontypool makes that the starting point, while Green Room gives Patrick Stewart a role far from a reassuring captain. Altered States and The Devils add experiments, censorship and another reason to revisit the archives.
Topics: Halloween movies, new releases, festival favourites, Canadian horror, archive discoveries
