Scary Movies (Part III)

---

Today, I'm concluding my three-part post on scary movies that are scheduled to be shown on Halloween or the day before Halloween.

In this post, I'm looking at the broadcast schedule for American Movie Classics.

Keep in mind that, unlike Turner Classic Movies or the Independent Film Channel, AMC interrupts its programming with commercial breaks — and it edits its films for both objectionable material and to make sure it fits into an allotted time slot.

On Halloween, things get started early:

• "The Fly," (1958) starring Vincent Price, at 1:30 a.m. (Central).


• "House of Dracula" (1945) at 3:30 a.m. (Central).


• "House of Frankenstein" (1945) at 5 a.m. (Central).


• "House of Dracula" (1958) at 6:30 a.m. (Central).


• The original "Halloween" (1978) will be shown at 8:30 a.m. (Central).


• "Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers" (1988) will be shown at 10:30 a.m. (Central).


• "Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers" (1989) will be shown at 12:30 p.m. (Central).


• "Jeepers Creepers" (2001) will be shown at 2:30 p.m. (Central).


• "Constantine" (2005) will be shown at 4:30 p.m. (Central).


• "Resident Evil" (2002) will be shown at 7 p.m. (Central).


• "House on Haunted Hill" (1999) will be shown at 9 p.m. (Central).


• "Return to House on Haunted Hill" (2007) will be shown at 11 p.m. (Central).

The day before Halloween brings a full day's worth of horror films, including a couple that were based on Stephen King books, on AMC.

• "Pet Sematary Two" (1992) will be shown at 1:15 a.m. (Central).


• "Puppet Master" (1989) will be shown at 3:15 a.m. (Central).


• "The Mummy," (1932) starring Boris Karloff, will be shown at 5 a.m. (Central).


• "Magic," (1978) starring Anthony Hopkins, Ann-Margret and Burgess Meredith, will be shown at 6:45 a.m. (Central).


• "Piñata: Survival Island" (1999) will be shown at 9 a.m. (Central).


• "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984) will be shown at 10:45 a.m. (Central).


• "Christine" (1983) will be shown at 12:45 p.m. (Central).


• "Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday" (1993) will be shown at 3 p.m. (Central).


• "Willard" (2003) will be shown at 5 p.m. (Central).


• "Constantine" (2005) will be shown at 7 p.m. (Central).


• "Jeepers Creepers" (2001) will be shown at 9:30 p.m. (Central).


• "A Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984) will be shown at 11:30 p.m. (Central).
