KLYAM (Chris at least!) recommendations for Halloween!

Parents (1988) – Directed by Bob Balaban and starring Randy Quaid. Randy Quaid isn’t just the loveable miscreant cousin Eddie. Here he plays an even creepier guy! 1950s suburban parody – his little boy suspects his parents are cannibals. How come they have leftovers every night? Parents is my Horror movie recommendation for your Halloween festivites.

As for music, there’s a plethora! The Misfits are great of course, but there’s so much more! In fact, I made a Halloween mix in 2020. Here you go… https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL287kpvhH9Pxtn-ZcQZaqH3-C2p8tB1eS

Of course, it’s not Halloween until The Shaggs say so.

The algorithms must have known I was searching Halloween music, because I came across this song I hadn’t heard in probably 10 years from Mark Sultan. A pleasant throwback!

Well, watch some Treehouse of Horrors or something fun or scary, eat candy, dance in the moonlight, and enjoy that extra hour of sleep. Happy Halloween!

It’s always the one you least suspect.
