Truly one of the greatest supernatural films ever. The Woman in the Snow segment is also one of the most beautifully filmed stories ever.

I can't wait to see what other Halloween movie ideas you have.

Halloween at my home is going to be: Dracula (the Frank Langella version), The Changeling (the George C. Scott classic), Vampyr (Carl Dryer's film). And maybe, just maybe, Ghost Story with Fred Astaire.
