It aired on TV only a couple of times back in the early 70's and I just happened to catch them. For years it seemed like I was the only person in the world that had ever even seen it. I grabbed a copy when it came out on DVD back around 2003. I also have found memories of other 70's Halloween specials like The Halloween That Almost Wasn't. There was also a Halloween themed magic special that aired in the late 70's but dang if I can remember the name of it. Tales from the Darkside and Monsters were my 80's inspirations for Halloween when I was a teenager. Mrs. Haunted Eve and I are particularly fond of Disney's Halloweentown series of movies. They filled a seriously missing void for new Halloween material last decade.Haunted Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15976113879844099321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-62626495012801618672010-08-11T17:05:52.655-04:002010-08-11T17:05:52.655-04:00What do you MEAN you haven't seen it?

Wore down that copy for over 20 years, and finally found a proper VHS copy. <br /><br />And now I have it on DVD.<br /><br />Mad Monster party is - bar none - my favourite animated monster/halloween inspired film (followed closely by "Witch's Night Out". If you haven't seen that one, find it online. It's impossible to get otherwise. 1970 ridiculous animated goodness).Ghoul Fridayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09783865823490404290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-91289255741583604432010-08-11T16:12:17.477-04:002010-08-11T16:12:17.477-04:00It is on dvd I own it.

But I couldn't WAIT to see this movie!<br /><br />A few years ago I was in the local grocery store and there was the DVD in the $5.99 pile. I think I left a lil puddle of pee in the aisle!<br /><br />I too fell asleep when I watched it. I think, with all the parts they cut, it was too long for me. (and I'm like 40 years older now LOL)<br /><br />Still a favorite!Cabrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656300680266640448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-18018025840232560352010-08-11T10:32:25.801-04:002010-08-11T10:32:25.801-04:00I just posted some screen captures from the 1972 a...I just posted some screen captures from the 1972 animated version/sequel, "Mad, Mad, Mad Monsters".
