yeah, i know exactly what you mean. to me, these holidays never really held importance in the way they were meant to, but there's a strong nostalgia or some sort of strong feeling attached to them.
i don't get dressed up for halloween, but i do have a nice pumpkin outside this year. :)

Put an upended, empty bottle of cheap whisky next to it. And post pics. This is important.

Yeah, I like Halloween. I like the people that really dress up their houses nice and elaborate like, graves and dummies and skeletons and orange lights and scary music. I don't like the brats that get drunk in the woods behind my house. They're MY woods. Maybe this time I'll do something about it, something bloody.
Christmas for me is the best antidepressant possible.

I got my costume out yesterday. Ive been the same thing for the past 6 years. I sewed some old ermine and fox and mink stoles to a sweatshirt that I had painted blood and tire tracks on so naturally Im roadkill- its a big hit with the vegetarian crowd- clever me.

I love Halloween. I like to watch, as a tradition, Halloween 3, which gets better on every viewing despite having nothing to do with the first two Halloween films. I'm saving Onibaba which I just got on DVD to watch too. And I might drink a Bloody Mary or 12, depending on how much celery we've got in.

Is halloween 3 the one with that fucking weird song, "(n) more days til halloween, halloween, halloween"? If so, i love that film. It's rubbish but truly great.

That's the one "Three more days to Halloween, Silver Shamorck" then the computer proto-IDM noise that goes "Do-de-do-de-do-de-do-de-do-de-do-de-... " Excellent. The ends a bit overblown but otherwise, some lovely touches.

probably because it's just not part of our culture, but yet another overly American thing that shops are trying to inject in the name of commerce.

Here's a quiz and I'll willingly offer up my ignorance. We often say "oh it's an american import", which fair enough, like obesity and talking loudly, it is. But what's its origin in America?

Yes, and I have the soundtrack Alex (as well as the film itself on VHS - a truly under-rated film!)
btw, Halloween is great - I played Pumpkin Bowling last night at Tesco's until my gf threatened to hit me if I didn't stop rolling a pumpkin along the aisles... :D
