Horror Movies in Theaters

Most horror movies shown in theaters in October are shown at dinner and movies places, and at retro theaters. Both types of theaters have been struggling, due to covid, so for the most part, they won’t show as many horror movies as usual this October. Alamo Drafthouse has most of it’s Texas locations open, and the same is true for Studio Movie Grill and Movie Tavern locations. There are so few horror movies listed on their calendars that I’m going to post links to their calendars for now, instead of listing all movies for each theater. At this point, The Inwood Theater in Dallas will not be showing midnight movies, and the Sundown at the Granada (also in Dallas) will not be showing any movies.

New Releases

Halloween Kills will be out on October 15, in wide release. Night Teeth, from Netflix, will be out on October 20, possible only on Netflix. Hypnotic will be out on October 27, and Last Night in Soho will be out on October 29. Antlers will also be out on October 29.

Sadly, there are no current mainstream horror movies to be released this October, Alamo Drafthouses are closed, and the Inwood Theater isn’t showing midnight movies.

Update: Due to a lack of new releases, national theater chains are showing classic horror movies from now through Halloween.

However, the original Halloween, plus Halloween 4 and 5, will be released in select markets this October, including Dallas, San Antonio, Houston, Tyler-Longview, and Austin. I haven’t found comprehensive listings, but in Dallas (according to Google) Halloween will be playing Friday, October 30, Halloween, and November 1, at Studio Movie Grills, Cinepolis Cinemas, and Moviehouse and Eatery locations.

Additionally, those three chains will show other vintage horror movies in October.

Movies and TV October 2018

12.09.2018 (12:38 pm) – Filed under: Horror Movies and TV Shows

I thought I would add something new this year, a listing of horror movies and TV shows for October. In addition to first run theatrical releases, I will include vintage horror movies playing at local theaters in DFW. This list will be updated frequently, so check back.

Syfy’s 31 Days of Halloween. Starting October 1, running through Halloween. 31 Days has a mixture of Syfy originals, reruns of genre TV shows, and mainstream horror movies. ZNation, Channel Cove, Van Helsing, and The Magicians have season premieres in October.  There doesn’t appear to be a full schedule for 31 Days. Syfy’s daily schedule is here.

AMC’s Fear Fest. It isn’t what it used to be, but it’s still worth watching. It looks like AMC has decided to include some classic genre movies in the early AM. This site has printed out the entire Fear Fest schedule on this page.

Freeform has a more kid friendly lineup of genre movies, called 31 Nights of Halloween. There are some pretty good movies on their schedule, but don’t expect something like Hellraiser. Their schedule is here.

The Food Channel has an interesting show called Halloween Wars. It’s a reality show that features teams competing against each other to create the best edible Halloween display in the category chosen by the hosts. The teams include pumpkin carvers and pastry chefs. The show’s page on the Food Channel site is here.

Turner Classic Movies has it’s annual month long horror fest running again this year. It’s full schedule is here.

The Disney Channel has it’s kids friendly Monstober again this October. A partial schedule is here. This schedule is updated frequently, so check back for updates.

I get a lot of my information from a site called Halloween Movies on TV. They are a comprehensive resource, and the site is updated daily. Their home page is here.

New Feature Film Releases

Currently in theaters-Hellfest, The House With a Clock In It’s Walls, and The Predator.

October 5-Venom. Ok, not a horror movie, but it looks like a damn good comic book movie. Opening wide on the evening of October 4, after 7pm.

October 12-Bad Times at the El Royale and Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween. Bad Times is more of a thriller, but it looks interesting and has a good cast. Goosebumps 2 is aimed at kids, and adults with kids.

October 19-Halloween (2018). This is the one we have all been waiting for. This is a direct sequel to the original Halloween. It ignores the 2,617 Halloween sequels and remakes made after the original. The trailer looks great, and early word is that it won’t disappoint. Opening wide on the evening of October 18, after 7pm.

October 26-Suspiria (2018). This is a remake of the 70’s classic. It may not be opening wide, so check local listings. The puzzling thing is that Hollywood has decided to not open a genre movie wide on the Friday before Halloween this year. They have done so every year since at least 2013, and the movies have generally done well. I’m saving the Halloween sequel for this weekend, instead of watching it when it opens.

 

Vintage genre films playing in DFW

Always check showtimes on the theater’s site the day of the showing. Theaters sometimes make last minute changes to showtimes.

 

Inwood Theater. The Inwood is one of the oldest theaters in Texas. It’s located in Inwood Village, at the southeast corner of Inwood and Lovers, in North Dallas. It’s just west of the Dallas North Tollway, and just south of Northwest Highway. Inwood has had midnight movies playing on Friday and Saturday since the 2000’s, and they are playing all genre at midnight in October. It’s best to arrive early for the midnight showings in October, in order to get a good seat. The Inwood Lounge, a full bar, connects to the theater lobby, and the theater has good concessions, with alcohol. The Inwood’s site is here. All showtimes are midnight.

October 5th and 6th-Bubba Ho-Tep. A 2003 classic starring Bruce Campbell and Ossie Davis, about Elvis Presley living in an East Texas retirement home. Elvis (Campbell) teams up with a fellow resident (Davis) to battle an evil Egyptian entity.

October 12th and 13th-The original Halloween. If you don’t know what this movie is about, you shouldn’t be on this site.

October 19th and 20th-The Hills Have Eyes. The original 1977 movie about a vacationing family who encounter a clan of cannibals in a remote part of the Southwest.

October 26th and 27th. The Rocky Horror Picture Show, featuring a live shadow cast.

 

Alamo Drafthouse. There are now several Alamos in DFW, with locations in Richardson, Cedars (close to Downtown), Las Colinas, Lake Highlands, and Denton. Alamo has reserved seating, a full menu, and a full bar. Some of their showings are movie parties, with a host and interactive items passed out to the crowd. Do not be late. Alamo won’t seat after the show’s start time.
