As October 31 approaches, there's nothing better than sitting down to watch some of your favourite scary films. 

So, to get you in the mood for All Hallow's Eve, here's a list of the best fright night movies that are a little more chic than freak: 

Beetlejuice

From big hair to quirky costumes, this Tim Burton classic is the ultimate Eighties scary movie.

 

Hocus Pocus

Probably the most stylish of all scary films, Sarah Jessica Parker makes witch-chic cool.

 

Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Now this isn't the TV show we all know and love. Pre-Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kirsty Swanson played a ghoulish cheerleader who slayed ALL the bad guys. 

 

The Rocky Horror Picture Show

If you fancy a little musical, then this cult classic is perfect. Let's do the Time Warp again…

 

Donnie Darko

Because who doesn't want to watch a young Jake Gyllenhaal battling nasty demons?

 

Edward Scissorhands

The Halloween version of a rom-com, we'll never forget Johnny Depp playing this frighteningly sweet role. 

 

The Addams Family

Voted the Best Horror Film in 1991, this is still a favourite among many and definitely one to re-watch. 

 

The Witches of Eastwick

Michelle Pfeiffer, Susan Saradon and Cher are a trend-setting trio of witches in this fantasy comedy.

All of our internet/movie dreams have just come true.

We haven't seen much of The Addams Family since the last film in 1993 (let's not talk about the questionable 1998 remake), so we were delighted when a serious blast from the past started doing the rounds this week.

Christina Ricci's role as Wednesday Addams is still remembered as one of her best, but now we're thinking she could do even better if a sequel is ever made.

This image of the actress "dressed up" as Morticia Addams sent our jaws dropping to the floor:

How good does she look?!

But before you start thinking a new film could be on the way, we'll have to burst your bubble as this is actually a Photoshopped version of a 1991 Addams Family promo shot of Angelica Huston.

Despite it being one of her biggest roles, Christina says didn't have a problem getting more varied roles after finishing her stint as Wednesday.

"I think that I’ve been very lucky that none of these images or impressions I’ve left on people have been bad ones really," the Girl Interrupted star told People magazine.

"People love Wednesday, but I would love that character too, so I’ve never really attempted to shake any of the stuff."
