AMC Fearfest begins Saturday, Oct. 13th!

My heart melts for AMC jumping aboard the Halloween programming wagon this year. And with the network's rise in horror-related content and geekery, it makes more sense than ever. Especially when you find out which AMC show-runner is hosting the television event: Kevin Smith! Already making a guest appearance on this season of Syfy's Face Off, Smith has been weaving his way in and out of the Halloween mediaverse this autumn.

I've posted the extensive lineup for AMC Fearfest below (in EST)--and it's the most impressive I've seen this season! For more details and film information, visit the AMC Fearfest website. (I thought it appropriate to include The Walking Dead below as well.)

Note: It seems like there are more than one or two errors on the Fearfest website, so apologies if there are holes in this schedule or where the times obviously don't make sense.


But even despite the site errors, I love this list so hard. There's a great mix of classic, new classic and modern; D grade and prime horror; and good sampling of the genre between slasher, supernatural and sci-fi. I'm so excited for Fearfest to start!
