Day 03: Kweeny's Pallet Cleansing Movies

Alright, you fine folks know by now I am not only participating in the HALLOWEEN HORROR MOVIE MADNESS this year, but I am also a judge. And if you are following along at all, you know the main theme of this years MADNESS is Video Nasties. The worst of the worst in Cinema.

When you watch movie after movie about how terrible humanity is, and your eyes feel like they should be banned from looking upon the world after hours of such vile film, you need movies to cleanse the pallet and remind you life is worth living.

So what does a Kweeny watch to keep her in the spirit, still get her points for the contest and cheer her up a bit? Well other than Beetlejuice of course, here is a list of some fine films you can watch that won't break your spirit and remind you the world isn't horrible after all.

There must be balance in all things you know.

My requirements for this list are simple: Can I get at least a point in the HHMMADNESS for them? Are they creepy, kooky and possibly spooky? Do they cheer me up and offer some fun to the darkness? Are they funny, weird or have an outlook on things that for some reason, brightens my day?
