Top 5 Non Scary Halloween Movies for Kids

#5. Casper

A friendly ghost falls for the daughter of a paranormal therapist and tries to figure out a way to take her to the school's Halloween dance.

Released: 1995
Starring: Christina Ricci, Bill Pullman, Eric Idle

Most people know Casper the Friendly Ghost, but they haven't seen this early CGI movie where Casper and his troublemaking ghost uncles interact with real people. Surprisingly, it actually looks pretty good. The story is solid, even if it is a bit weird for a cartoon ghost to pine for a real girl, and it's pretty funny, too (the girl's father refers to the ghosts as "the living impaired"). There's adventure and ghosts and mystery and even death, but none of it is actually scary, so it's perfect for kids.

#4. Halloweentown

On Halloween, a trio of kids follow their grandmother into the magical land of Halloweentown to learn witchcraft and help defeat a demon who is making people disappear.

Released: 1998
Starring: Kimberly J. Brown, Joey Zimmerman, Debbie Reynolds

This is a Disney movie, so it's about as non-threatening as you can get and still be a Halloween movie. It hits all the usual Disney points - a harried mom, grown-ups underestimating children, kids saving the day - but with a Halloween flavor, so kids will love it. It's cutesy and it was originally a TV movie, so the special effects aren't exactly stunning, but it was popular enough to spawn three sequels: Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge, Halloweentown High, and Return to Halloweentown.

#3. Spaced Invaders

A little girl is the only one who believe a gaggle of moronic aliens when they arrive on Halloween wanting to take over the Earth - everyone else thinks they're kids in Halloween costumes.

Released: 1990
Starring: Ariana Richards, Douglas Barr

Spaced Invaders is a rare breed among Halloween movies in that it belongs in the science fiction genre rather than the fantasy genre. The aliens are tiny and silly and the whole movie has a goofy air about it, but it's actually funny as opposed to eye-rollingly lame. The many callbacks to staples of the sci-fi genre, from War of the Worlds to Star Trek, speak to the writer's intelligence, and the little girl in this movie has the best Alien inspired costume I've ever seen.

#2. The Addams Family

Unscrupulous accountants deliver a fake long-lost uncle to an eccentrically morbid family in order to trick them out of their enormous fortune.

Released: 1991
Starring: Raul Julia, Angelica Huston, Christopher Lloyd, Christina Ricci

The Addamses are quite possibly the world's weirdest family. They live in an enormous, creepy old mansion where dad Gomez enjoys crashing toy trains, mom Morticia cuts the heads off roses, and children Wednesday and Pugsley play with an electric chair. Yet their ghoulish exploits are funny rather than scary and they're a happy, functional family in their own special way. The Addams Family is well written and adventurous and it ends with a rather unusual Halloween party. It has a direct sequel called The Addams Family Values.

#1. Hocus Pocus

A teenage boy who doesn't believe in magic accidentally unleashes a trio of evil witches on Halloween and must team up with a girl from school and a boy-turned-cat to defeat them before they prey on his little sister.

Released: 1993
Starring: Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, Omri Katz

Usually when you put witches, magic, death, and Halloween together, you get a horror movie, but not when you give it to Kenny Ortega (the director of High School Musical). Instead, you get a funny story about 300 year old witches who want to eat kids trying to deal with modern day things like cars and vacuum cleaners and eventually getting beaten by bullied kids who need to learn to appreciate their little sisters more. It's a fun movie full of big names (the witches are played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy) that's developed quite a cult following among both kids and adults.

Sci-fi DVD Movies - The 10 Best Sci-fi Films From 1984-1999

I started out to make a list of the best Sci-fi films and to my surprise my list was concentrated in a 16 year time frame. My criteria is simple, was the movie memorable and if I turned on the TV and that movie was playing, would I watch it again. I don't like ranking movies, I will leave that up to you. These films are listed in order of their original release.

The Terminator (1984)

The film that created a franchise, the best of the Terminator trilogy. A new take on judgment day where the machines judge human kind, and find human kind wanting. Sarah Conner fights for the future against a nearly invincible foe with the help of her future son's father, sent from the future ,by her future son, to save her (wow). Incredible plot, great action thank you director James Cameron for this fabulous movie.

Starman (1984)

It's nice to know that not all aliens are not out to enslave us or kill us. Jeff Bridges puts on an amazing performance as an alien that takes the form of a widowed women's (Karen Allen) husband reading the DNA of some saved hair strands. The alien then learns about humans as they hean to an alien rendezvous point while being chased by the feds. Along the way ,Starman helps us to learn about ourselves and even performs a few miracles. Surprisingly enough this movie was directed by John Carpenter a master director of horror movies.

The Last Starfighter(1984)

The premise of the film, an alien alliance in their search for Starfighter pilots to defend the universe, design a video game that simulates space combat so perfectly that the game can be used to select potential pilots. This is a fun movie with a dose of comedy that is not meant to be taken seriously but it is very entertaining.

Enemy Mine(1985)

Strand a human and an alien combatant on the same planet and throw in a lot of adversity and what do get. Probably not what you would expect, plus the final scene is basically a tear jerker. You will never recognize Lou Gossett Jr in this one.

Star Trek- The Voyage Home(1986)

The best of the Star Trek movies was directed by Mr. Spock(Leonard Nimoy). The intrepid officers of the Enterprise must go back in time to retrieve a Humpback whale to save the earth in the future. There is a lot of fun to be had in watching the Enterprise officers attempt to get things done on present day earth.

Aliens (1986)

I liked the first Movie "Alien" but Aliens was definitely the best of the Alien franchise. I loved the characters in this movie. I loved the Ripley, the sergeant, the lieutenant, the evil company representative, the synthetic man and all the other marines. Combine great characters with a great plot, great cinematography and great special effects and you get a fantastic movie.

Predator (1987)

When you send in a badass special forces team and you lose contact with them what do you do? You send in ex-special forces badass mercenaries to find out what happened to your missing team. The team that was sent to hunt becomes the hunted and are no match for alien technology, but the force is strong with one of them.

Total Recall(1990)

Arnold Schwarzeneggar stars as a man that wants to visit Mars but the only way he can get there is by getting a phony memory of a vacation implanted into his mind by a company named Recall. Once he gets the implant the fun begins, lots of action and intrigue equals lots of entertainment.

Star Ship Troopers(1997)

This movie flew way under the radar when it was first released. Loosely based on the novel by Robert Heinlein, director Paul Verhoeven paints a picture of a militaristic earth government where only veterans have a right to vote, and their fight against the bug planet who have been bombarding the earth with asteroids. This movie is not recommended for kids as the methods of combat employed by the bugs can be quite gruesome. Home of the toughest drill instructor you ever saw.

The Matrix(1999)

The best of the Matrix trilogy is the first movie. This movie blows you away the first time you see it because there is so much originality in it, you never knew what would happen next.

That completes my top 10 Sci-fi list from 1984-1999, be on the lookout for future lists and reviews.

Terror From Space - The Top Alien Movies of All Time

The world is full of mysteries and mankind isn't even close to unraveling all of them. And it's what makes this such an amazing place to live in. When even seemingly unbreakable rules like that of science seem to be revised and questioned everyday, then there truly is a lot of room for mystery left in this world. And one of the biggest mysteries of this world and beyond would definitely be aliens.

The legacy of alien visitations and abductions has left quite a legacy on this world, especially in our pop culture. You see them everyday from TV series like 'Roswell' to action figures of a variety of aliens that range from the familiar Greys to some very weird draconian-looking ones. This legacy goes beyond the small screen and the shopping mall however. One of the biggest adopters of aliens to their cause would definitely be the movie industry.

Here are some of the best alien movies that are sure to fire up your weekends. From sheer terror to heartwarming moments, aliens have been used by the most talented directors to inspire in us a whole range of emotions. Some of the best would be:

- 'Signs': This M. Night Shyamalan thriller is one of the best alien movies ever made because of its interesting storyline and the signature Shyamalan twists at the end. Most everything about this Mel Gibson starrer is unique from your usual popcorn fare, as Shyamalan is a master of evoking terror and suspicion from his audience in the most unconventional ways. Watch out for this one if you're sick of all the gun-toting madness of your standard alien flicks.
- 'Dreamcatcher': This movie is scary in an altogether different way, which isn't surprising since it was based on a book by the immortal Stephen King. This movie confronts us with the reality not just of alien life on earth but of he possibility of them taking over a human body and taking complete control of it. This is definitely one for the Halloween season!
- Star Wars: Return of the Jedi: There are just some movies that are so iconic they can't be knocked off any list. And this is one of them. Based literally in a galaxy far, far away, aliens both humanoid and otherwise abound in the movie that features the final battle between Luke Skywalker and his evil father, the Sith Lord Darth Vader.
