October 8 White Zombie (1932) A young man turns to a witch doctor to lure the woman he loves away from her fiancé, but instead turns her into a zombie slave.
October 15 Bride of the Monster (1955) In the film, two stranded hunters seek refuge in an abandoned and haunted house, where the current owner, Dr. Eric Vornoff (Lugosi), refuses to provide them hospitality. As the hunters attempt to force their way into the house, they accidentally release a giant octopus, which is then sent to kill them. Sure, we've seen it before! But have we seen it with a Swedish professional wrestler playing a mute laboratory assistant named Lobo or the untimely demise of a scientist at the hands of an atomically powered mutant octopus? NO! "Bride of the Monster" isn't winning awards, but it's been wrapping its tentacles around the hearts of horror kids and cinephiles for seventy years.
October 22 The Black Cat (1934) American honeymooners in Hungary become trapped in the home of a Satan-worshipping priest when the bride is taken there for medical help following a road accident.
