Halloween consists of some of my favorite nostalgic movies of all time. These movies are absolutely incredible and hold so many memories. These are movies that can be watched over and over again and  have so many different movie styles to spice up your movie watching during the Halloween season. From funny and spooky to creepy and crawly, these 4 Halloween movies are some of my favorites.

 Coraline is an 11 year old girl who ventures into another world that appears to be the ideal home life, but little does she know, sinister secrets are about to come to light. Coraline was released in 2009 with a PG rating. It was directed by Henry Selick and it is definitely a disturbing one.

Despite its disturbing nature, this movie is incredible. The stop-motion film work is mind blowing and it's crazy to think that this movie is a bunch of pictures of clay figurines. The story is truly amazing, giving the viewer the idea that “The Other World” is everything that this young girl could want, but quickly and magically proving that wrong. The colors and entire setting of the movie is eerie, it holds so much sophistication and blows my mind. While this movie does have a PG rating, this isn’t a movie for little kids. It's a bit disturbing and might scare them. Other than that, this movie is truly amazing and had me hooked from the very beginning.

Corpse Bride follows a shy groom who inadvertently raises a deceased bride from the dead who assumes he is her husband. Corpse Bride was directed by Tim Burton and Mike Johnson, it was released in 2005, is once again rated PG, and it includes some amazing voice actors like Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter. 

Corpse Bride is once again a movie that I have watched every year during this time for as long as I can remember. The interesting look of the characters depicts the perfect Burton style and is something that is worth remembering. Their tall, skinny bodies, and deep hollowed features depict those of the dead. It is a beautiful movie, with an incredible setting and storyline. It shows deep, raw emotions, expressed in a way that leaves you feeling sympathetic towards these made up characters. Though the storyline isn't the best in the world, what Burton does with the characters and how the voice acting is done makes up for it entirely. Both do an amazing job portraying each character in their own unique and dark way. The film is beautifully crafted, breathes real emotions, and is a work of dark art.
