As the leaves begin to change and the air feels crisp, there is no better time to get cozy and watch a good movie. Here are five movies that capture the essence of the season perfectly and will make you want to light a candle and curl up on the couch with a pumpkin spice latte. I promise that these movies will make your autumn nights as memorable as the season itself.
1. Hocus Pocus
Let’s start this list off strong with Hocus Pocus - one of the most iconic halloween movies there is. This movie follows three resurrected witches in modern day Salem, Massachusetts brought back to life by a teenage boy and his little sister. The magic, humor, and fall setting of this movie make it an October classic.
2. The Craft
The Craft is one of the best movies to watch during October before Halloween due to the supernatural horror aspects of the movie and the 90s grunge style featured through the characters outfits. The movie follows a friend group of four high school girls who are witches, and use their powers to deal with their problems. However, this becomes messy when the girls take it too far by getting creative with their magic and start using it to harm anyone who gets in their way.
3. Coraline
Coraline is a claymation movie that follows a young girl named Coraline Jones who moves into a new house with a door that leads to a parallel world. The movie features a spooky atmosphere and elements of fantasy, which make it a perfect film for cold autumn nights.
4. Twilight
Twilight is a love story between a teenage girl and a vampire. It takes place in the Pacific Northwest, which adds a moody atmosphere to the film. The visuals of the movie align with the fall aesthetic and the mystery and darkness of the plot make it a great fall watch.
5. The Blind Side
The Blind Side is a heartwarming true story about the power of kindness and compassion. The movie follows the journey of a homeless teenager who is taken in by a family. With their guidance, he discovers his talent for football and becomes a star player. The warmth of the film makes it a great watch during the coziest season.
