We received a copy of Halloween (2018) for review and to inspire the creation of this Halloween Inspired Movie Night Guide.

One of our favorite things to do on a Friday night is watching movies at home. The home release of Halloween today got us thinking. How would we do a Halloween inspired movie night? For starters, we’d watch both Halloween (1978) and Halloween (2018). That isn’t all though, we’d also pair it with some delicious food. Lucky for you, we have a few recipes up our sleeves.

Before we get to the food, a little about Halloween (2018). In Halloween, “forty years after the events of 1978’s Halloween, Laurie Strode (Curtis) now lives in a heavily guarded home on the edge of Haddonfield, where she’s spent decades preparing for Michael’s potential return. After being locked up in an institution, Myers manages to escape when a bus transfer goes terribly wrong, leading to chaos in the same town he preyed on decades earlier. Laurie now faces a terrifying showdown when the deranged killer returns for her and her family – but this time, she’s ready for him.”

Planning Your Halloween Inspired Movie Night

So just how does one plan the food for a Halloween inspired movie night? As we mentioned earlier, this past fall we created 2 recipes inspired by Halloween (2018) and Halloween (1978). When paired together and with a few ciders or a bottle of wine, these recipes are perfect for a viewing of both Halloween films.

  • Haddonfield Horseshoes– This regional treat is popular in the area where Haddonfield would be. The more hot sauce you add, the gorier the effect will be. The great thing about the Haddonfield Horseshoes is that it is a full meal all in one.

The Haddonfield Horseshoe is inspired the movie Halloween and is perfect for the holiday! 2geekswhoeat.com
  • Blood Spattered Pumpkin Seeds– What kind of movie night can you possibly have without snacks? While popcorn is all well and good, pumpkin seeds are far more appropriate for a Halloween viewing. This recipe is addicting! You’ve been warned. Not to mention, we also grabbed a fun interview with executive producer Ryan Turek.

Bonus Features

Now that you have some ideas for tasty treats for your Halloween Inspired Movie Night, are you curious as to which extras are included with the Blu-ray release of Halloween? We were too! Here is what is offered:

  • Deleted/Extended Scenes
    • Extended Shooting Range
    • Shower Mask Visit
    • Jog to a Hanging Dog
    • Allyson and Friends at School
    • Cameron and Cops Don’t Mix

The special features in Halloween are super interesting and worth checking out. Our only complaint is that they aren’t nearly long enough. We would have loved to have seen more of The Original Scream Queen, The Sound of Fear, and Journey of the Mask. We also would love to hear from more people who were involved. *cough* Ryan Turek *cough* That being said, we enjoyed what was offered.
