Theatrical & Video Horror Releases for September/October 2008

Can’t decide on whether to watch ‘Halloween 5′ on AMC for the 302nd time or to check out another replay of ‘The Haunting’ on Turner Classic? Well, have some fear! Run to your local video store (or do the Netflix thing) or theater to check out these new releases…

I’m including September releases as well because the movie industry likes to get a jump on the Halloween buzz early, especially when it comes to video releases.

In Theaters

9/19:

Um… That’s it? Hello?! Isn’t October 31st a FRIDAY, when movies generally are released?!?! Why not release a horror movie then? October is the one month that should be flooded with new horror movies in the theaters… >=[
