Yes, with Netflix, Video on Demand, DVD', Blu Rays, etc., a huge monster movie marathon doesn't hold quite the punch it used to. But I for one still get a kick out of the "shared experience" aspect of knowing other fans are watching at the same time. And yes, AMC did it better when it was MonsterFest and commercial free, but this could still be fun, right?
Hopefully the schedule is up soon.

Is this what you were talking about TJ? October 2011 Fearfest SchedulePretty cool line up they've got there. Makes me wish I got AMC over here. I haven't seen Silver Bullet in years. I remember when I was younger I used to watch that movie every few weeks or so. Strangely though they seem to be recycling the hell out of a few episodes of the walking dead.

I don't have cable to I have to miss out on it. I watched it every year up to 2008 but when I moved in '09, I didn't have cable and haven't had cable since. I plan on watching a shit load of horror movies this month(it's practically October!).

It has slowly gone down hill over the years. I remember when it was the whole month, now its just a few weeks.
It's always fearfest in my dvd player.

Heck, back in the late 90's (I think) when they had daily online contests during it (geared towards that days "theme") I won myself an IPaq handheld computer. Then, it was state of the art. Now, my IPod has more processing power.....but it was fun to play.

I would be happier with a Dark Shadows marathon.

I love Dark Shadows. Grew up watching it with my mom... it was sort of "our thing".
I have a super cool Dark Shadows album on vinyl. We (my fiance and I) actually listened to it a couple of nights ago while we made little ghosts out of fabric covering Christmas ornaments haha.
