Halloween Movie Countdown: "Tower of Terror"


As a count down to Halloween, I will be posting about movies that I like to tune into every year as Halloween approaches. Some of the films on my Ultimate Halloween Movie List are universal classics, while some are just trips down memory lane and hold a strong sentimental value.



Speaking of which, the movie I have chosen to post about today, Tower of Terror, falls right into that category. It's got all those classic Disney elements: charm, cheese, atmosphere, and a well-structured story.



Tower of Terror is full of Halloween elements as well as some cheesy goodness. Steve Guttenburg's corny acting and reaction shots, Kirsten Dunst's 90's grunge outfits, a crazy old witch, some very communicative ghosts, and some fun plot twists along the way are what make this silly film a Halloween classic from my generation.



As for some trivia, turns out that the director of this movie also directed about 21 episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark from 1991-1996. Anyway I found the movie on YouTube and hope you enjoy it!

Here's the first part of the movie 1/10:

Are You Afraid of the Dark?



I have been wanting to do a post on AYAOTD for a long time. My friends and I all grew up watching the show as young kids remembering how scary we all felt when ghosts would appear or when scary monsters would show up. Years later when we all met in High School, we talked about how much we used to miss growing up in the 90's and how much we missed our favorite TV shows including: Doug, Hey Arnold, The Amanda Show, All That, etc... and of course the one and only: Are You Afraid of the Dark?

After a while, we started to turn our get-together's into 90's nights where we'd watch silly episodes of AYAOTD, Goosebumps, and plenty of other cheesy 90's shows and movies. Not only is watching AYAOTD nostalgic, but now it's extremely laughable, as predicted. We'll laugh at everything in the entire production from the acting, writing, costumes, sets, to the overall direction and of course, the special effects.

An amazing example of AYAOTD's brilliant special effects:

Recently one of my friends sent me a link to Beauch87's YouTube Channel which includes plenty of summaries of classic AYAOTD episodes, here's one of his hilarious summaries:

This is a ridiculous parody of AYAOTD that my friends and I made in our film class last year. Enjoy the cliché elements!
