All posts for the month October, 2025

Mostly, DUEL, which is a great film, and Spielberg’s first full-length feature! It did so well on television, that they added scenes and did a theatrical release. And that’s not the only great movie this year.

Today’s shout-out is to Your Best Halloween Ever. The title is self-explanatory. You’ll find recipes, decorating tips, everything to make your Halloween FABULOUS.

I’ve started a new series on my channel where I rank television horror movies year by year, starting with 1970. Man, has this been fun. Sure, there are some clunkers, but there are also some amazing gems hidden in these years.

Today’s shout-out is Garage Sale Finds, who has been in the countdown for 13 years! This is a great blog that I wish I’d been following forever, so I’ll start now.

Did you know there was a cool show in the 70s about ESP? Don’t feel bad if you didn’t. Most people only saw this show chopped up into bad Night Gallery segments. It deserved better. Check out what happened:

Shout out to a fellow Crypt Keeper: Dr. Gangrene is using October to talk about classic films and horror hosts. You can trust him, he’s a doctor.

I thought it would be fun to do a vid on BAD shows. I don’t know if it’s the thumbnail or the content, but it didn’t do well. Maybe you’ll like it?

These shows are so bad that I covered three and can only remember two.

Today’s shout-out is Haunted Eve’s Halloween Blog, which is about yard haunts and general spookiness. Which reminds me, it’s time to put up the 12-foot inflatable cat.

I hadn’t heard of this show before I researched it. Strange Luck was a DB Sweeney vehicle, and it was the best of the shows that Fox murdered. There is even an X-Files reference!

This year, providing my colander-brain remembers, I’d also like to give a shout-out to other blogs on the Countdown.

Today, definitely have a look at Halloween Horror Haiku. I agree with their philosophy–Halloween is for everyone! If you come up to my door in costume, I don’t care how old you are. Say “Trick or Treat!” and it’s yours!

Okay, I’ll probably give you candy even if you don’t say anything. I just like giving out candy.
