SCARY MOVIES FOR OCTOBER Jaws. Best monster movie and one of the best screenplays ever. Structurally, dialogue, as an adaptation...a study in how to do it right. PLUS, perhaps the most iconic movie score ever. Some of Robert Shaw's best work. Spielberg at his best. Kong-Skull Island is a choice for runner up.

Directed by Steven Spielberg. With Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss, Lorraine Gary. A local sheriff, a marine biologist and an old seafarer team up to hunt down a great white shark wreaking havoc in a beach resort.

Best scary movies...DARK NIGHT OF THE SCARE CROW. 1981 starring Charles Durning and Robert Lyons (Dr Giggles). Okay, so it's a TV movie but it really delivers and the cast is all in--some great performances; none better than the wood chipper. Script that has great pacing and pay-offs.

Directed by Frank De Felitta. With Charles Durning, Robert F. Lyons, Claude Earl Jones, Lane Smith. In a small Southern town, a wrongfully-killed man exacts revenge on those who murdered him from beyond the grave.
