Satan's Little Helper? Really Roshiq? That was one of the worst movie's i've ever seen.

Strongly disagree! You haven't seen much of truly bad movies, I guess.

Anyway, I found it pretty entertaining all through the way. It was a nice come back for Jeff Lieberman, who have made few pretty decent genre flicks back in 70's & early 80s like Squirm, Blue Sunshine & even one of my favorite 80s slasher Just before Dawn! The only complain from my part about SLH is it's bit too long, considering its pretty simple & amusing plot line which I think could be better packed in only 60 to 70 minutes. Otherwise, as a decently made low budget indie flick, I think this can be treated as a fantastic Halloween feature for family viewing!

Definitely checking out Satan's Little Helper tonight. Hope Roshiq's assessment is correct!

I found it annoying, stupid, badly written and acted. I didnt find it scary or enjoyable and all i wanted to do was strangle that kid. I guess i can understand how some people may find it fun especially as a silly movie to watch on Halloween but it is by no means good.

For me, the perfect Halloween movie MUST either have a paranormal story or a classic monster, but it doesn't have to be super scary... it should be a bit nostalgic and bring out the big kid in me... which means they don't nescesarily have to be super scary.

10 movies I would be very likely to watch on Halloween, in no particular order:

1. Salems Lot (original)
2. Creepshow (original)
3. The Fog (original)
4. The Amityville Horror (original)
5. Poltergeist
6. An American Haunting
7. The Haunted Mansion (yes, the Disney movie!)
8. Nosferatu
9. The Gate (what did I say about "the big kid"?)
10. The Haunted Palace (because it's not Halloween without Vincent Price)
