John Carpenter's Captain Voyeur (1969)


Captain Voyeur (1969)

Captain Voyeur (1969) was the first short film by director John Carpenter while a student at USC Cinema. The 8-minute film is about a bored computer worker who becomes fixated on a woman at work and follows her back to her home. The film remained in the USC's Hugh M. Hefner Moving Image Archive until 2011 when it was rediscovered by archivist Dino Everett. The film is notable because it includes several elements that would appear in Carpenter's later horror film, Halloween. Everett says that the similarities include a striking resemblance between the lead actresses.

The film was selected in 2011 for preservation by the National Film Preservation Foundation because of its historical significance in showing Carpenter's development as a filmmaker.





Not great but still worth the watch let me know what you think. 






Family Halloween Streaming Free on Tubi



Much different from most streaming services Tubi Tv is a free streaming site that is loaded with odd ball movies and Tv shows that are mixed in with big blockbusters. Beware though most "movies" will have adds. As for kid shows they seem to cut back on them or at times not show any. So I was perusing the site the other day and was surprised but they amount of fun Halloween themed content that was available. In true Man Cave style I have compiled a short list of titles that will get you in the Halloween spirit. Grab the remote, pop up some kettle corn lets get this season started!!

Halloween Jack O'Lantern (2019)



This spooky jack o'lantern is sure to light up your Halloween party, and prepare you for the ever-festive and frightening holiday. What you get is a one hour loop of Jack flickering in the night. Granted the soundtrack playing in the background is not the best so I suggest hitting the mute button and turn up the Monster Mash mix instead. This was fun to let play while we where doing homework the other day and again as we decorated the house. 


The Dog Who Saved Halloween (2011) 




Zeus & the Bannisters have moved into a new house, just in time for Halloween! Everything seems to be going well until they notice strange lights and sounds coming from neighbor Eli's (Lance Henriksen) house. George (Gary Valentine) takes it upon himself to find out what is going on, and enlists the help of an unlikely pair (lead by Dean Cain). After the trio and George's wife Belinda (Elisa Donovan) get trapped in the spooky house, only Zeus is left to save Halloween!

Can a movie go wrong with Lance Henriksen along with Dean Cain? With a Hallmark movie feel in fact if you look at director Pete Sullivan's list of movies he has directed you will see quite a few Hallmark Christmas Movies on that list. With being said if your a fan of made for TV feels this one is for you and the family. 


Witches In Stitches (1997)



Hop aboard a broomstick for this tale of two dim-witted witches who accidentally turn their sister into a jack-o-lantern on Halloween...and that's just the beginning of the story. Join the silly sisters as they turn a typical suburban town topsy-turvy with their inept attempts to rescue their sister-turned-pumpkin on Halloween night. Watch them fly around town, go trick-or-treating for the first time, and pop in on a children's Halloween party.


Monsters Vs. Aliens (2009)


Probably the big hit on this list DreamWorks along with Reese Weatherspoon take us on a fun ride when a woman is transformed into a giant! After being struck by a meteorite on her wedding day of all things she becomes part of a team of monsters sent in by the U.S. government to defeat an alien mastermind trying to take over Earth. This motley crew of Monster misfits is called into action there job is to combat the aliens and save the world from imminent destruction!

Thanks to the successes of Monsters vs Aliens we where treated to a new Halloween Special
Monsters vs Aliens: Mutant Pumpkins from Outer Space that airs every year on network tv so make sure to be on the look out for it this year as well. 
 

Witch's Night Out (1979)



It's time to revisit this 1979 Halloween Classic with the voice talents of Gilda Radner, Catherine O'Hara, and Fiona Reid. A witch, disgruntled by the fact that no one takes Halloween seriously anymore, decides to stir things up and disrupt the social gathering in her old house as well as turn a couple of kids who love monsters into actual monsters.

Most younger kids might be turned off by the animation style used to tell the story and may appeal to a tween audience looking for some more than the Great Pumpkin. You Can read my full review here. 


So there you have it five kid friendly shows to kick off the Halloween season and they are free to watch. During the trying times of COVID entertain the kids this year can be a challenge. Coupled with other bloggers during the Countdown to Halloween I'm sure you will find many great ideas. Lets make 2020 a Halloween to remember!





 









Hubie Halloween. Yay or Nay?

Hubie Halloween Coming October 7th 



Ok, Halloween fans now that a trailer has dropped for the new Adam Sandler flick what do you think? I'm sure I will watch it for the greater good of this blog and all things Halloween but I just might have to drink a few witches brews beforehand.





Despite his devotion to his hometown of Salem (and its Halloween celebration), Hubie Dubois is a figure of mockery for kids and adults alike. But this year, something is going bump in the night, and it's up to Hubie to save Halloween.





Hubie Halloween is just one of several new movies and shows coming to Netflix this Halloween, and people seem to be excited! the movie reunites a bunch of comedy faves all in one star-studded cast. Like many prolific people in Hollywood, Sandler definitely has some collaborators he likes to work with a lot, and some of them show up in this cast, but there are also plenty of exciting newcomers to watch out for. 


Ok let me know will you be tuning in or tuning out?

Scare Me

The Vincent Price Collection: Terror, thy name is Price! In film history, few actors have been as closely associated with horror as Vincent Price, and for good reason.

This Halloween, we are thrilled (and chilled) to present five classic films starring “the Merchant of Menace.” Featuring three of Price’s acclaimed Edgar Allan Poe films directed by Roger Corman—House of Usher, The Masque of the Red Death and The Tomb of Ligeia—along with Theater of Blood (co-starring Diana Rigg) and The Monster Club (premiering Oct. 5) with John Carradine and Donald Pleasance.

Wow, this was crazy fun to watch and kind of relive my past a little. In fact, after soaking this bad boy in I jammed out to some Anthrax, DRI, and of course Suicidal Tendinitis. Being a young hick from a hick town that wore his hair long I never knew that Glam Metal, Thrash, and Punk all hated each other. Man, I listened to all of it never caring what side of the music spectrum it came from.  If you have Amazon Prime and you may have been a fan of this type of music this is a must-see documentary.

I have really enjoyed sitting back and escaping the real world for a bit with these Disney shorts. My kids are amazed to know these played before a big Disney film and it was the only way to see them. In fact, as kids, we could not wait to see which short would be shown. The Band Concert has always been one of my favorites so it was an easy...

4 Stars!

I have never seen this one before but its Burton so why not press play. Victor and his beloved dog Sparky watch one of their favorite home movies. 

4 Hot stars!

I beat you think this is getting 4 stars to don't you? When a jealous Donald Duck tries to sabotage Mickey's magic act, he ends up becoming the victim of many of his magic tricks. In the end, Donald shoots the fireworks from Mickey's flare gun but accidentally causes the entire stage collapse on top of them. Yeah, this was just ok still a fun ride down memory lane.


Honestly gave it 3 1/2 Stars.

Rat Skates - Born In The Basement. This engaging documentary about the birth of Overkill and the Thrash scene is told by Overkill's founding drummer Rat Skates. Again Amazon Prime with the crazy Metal era documentary. The only thing I found interesting in this one was the grassroots approach he took to get his band off the ground later getting burned out just as the band was gaining airplay. In the end, this one falls just a tad flat.

This film features four different segments, each of which begins with various clips of the Disney artists roaming the country, drawing cartoons of some of the local cultures and scenery. Not sure that the stories hold up with this old Disney special but was happy to click play anyway.

Walt Disney discusses the history of animation, beginning with J. Stuart Blackton and his Humorous Phases of Funny Faces in 1906, and including Gertie the Dinosaur. Really enjoying these old Disney made for tv shows.

Chad Buckley is a horror aficionado, and he’s lonely. Chad spends his days at his struggling genre video store arguing with his only regular customer, Sam. When an unsuspecting applicant shows up, Chad begins to teach him about the rules of horror and his video store at large, much to the chagrin of Sam. During Chad’s on-boarding process, we weave in and out of different hilarious horror shorts, each one geared at a different set of horror tropes. As this new applicant learns the ropes, he begins to suspect Chad of something sinister, but we quickly learn that he may have a secret of his own. I loved Scare Package the only thing keeping it from a perfect 5 stars is that it was not perfect. The strong shorts are easily the throwbacks with practical effects and goopy story's. Sadly we get a few that just do not seem well placed. This was a fantastic treat from Joe Bob's Last Drive-in and if you have Shudder and love those old 80s horror flicks this one is a must-watch.
