Halloween Cartoon For Oct. 16th

Here is the original short of Frankenweenie that Tim Burton made while still working at Disney. Of course it's a classic homage to the movie Frankenstein. Starring Barret Oliver, from the Neverending Story and D.A.R.Y.L. They showed this all the time on the Disney Channel. Which is a little weird because Burton was fired from Disney after making this short. They said that he wasted company time, and that it was too scary for kids. Oh but after he branched out on his own, and started making other successful films like Beetlejuice and Batman, Disney couldn't wait to show off Burton's Disney work.

Halloween Cartoon For Oct. 13th

Here's another live action one called Suckablood, by BloodyCuts in the UK. This one is very creepy, and I think could give some kiddies nightmares. But I thought this a was very clever and original modern fairtale.

Halloween Cartoon For Oct. 12th

Now this one is't a cartoon, it's a live action special that I grew up watching. It's a 1979 telefilm that aired regularly on the Disney Channel until the late 90's called "The Halloween That Almost Wasn't". It stars Judd Hirsch as Dracula (from Taxi, and Independence Day), Mariette Hartley as The Witch, and Henry Gibson as Igor (from The 'Burbs, and  Innerspace). It's a very stupid and cheesy special, but I can't help at laugh at how dumb it is, mostly for the nostalgia factor.
