This Halloween week in Horror Movies and Paranormal TV

Just for fun, put on your copy of "Halloween II." Oh, you know you own it, confess! Put it at the beginning when they show Dr. Loomis shooting Michael. This bothered me from the first time I saw it in the theater in high school... notice how Michael backs up onto the balcony and his feet are at the same level as the railing? Hmm....

*(asterisk) means I’m watching it.

This list gets bigger and bigger with more paranormal shows making new episodes and of course all the smart channels knowing to show horror as we approach Samhain. I’m thrilled that “Fact or Faked” is back on the scene on Thursday night following “Destination Truth” (awesome ass to kiss). So, expect more of the FoF tank top boobie shots on the Friday reviews and perhaps a new LAUGH episode.
