Highly recommended for Halloween scares.

No gore, just a very frightening scenario played out in a sleepy English village.

Never been a fan of creepy, horror kind of movies. I get visuals stuck in my head and have trouble getting rid of them.

But y'all enjoy!!!

One modern (ish) movie and one classic (anything from Universal, through 50s schlock to Hammer)

Tonight we get together with another couple and marathon the Twilight Zone. His wife and I are savants on the series, we compete to who can identify the episode before the opening narration. It is rare for it to go past six seconds before she or I call out which episode it is.

I think it may be the episode "Dust" about a man whose son is going to be hanged. The father may pray before a nativity scene. I'll have to ask Theresa tonight.

The only Christmas episode TZ did featured Art Carney as a drunken store Santa.

In that season they did hour long episodes and they are some of the rarest and least known.
Even Teresa and I can struggle on them because the marathons do not typically show them.
I'll see if she can confirm it or if she knows which one of the lost episodes that is
