Halloween has come to I-Mockery and it's brought talking jack-o-lanterns.

I love September.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I love the :O pumpkin face right before the oncoming doom.

The guts scooping animated gif cracked me up. There's nothing like seeing Halloween footage and images from the 70s and 80s. Something about it seemed much more sinister and dangerous than it is now.

actually I have to say ROG, I made that robot costume 2 years back, and it seriously was a pain in the ass to move about, that and being 6'3 in a giant cardboard tinfoil robot costume. Doors were a complete nitemare, children ran in terror, drinks and tables were knocked over. However, it was the most bitchin Costume around!

I was listening to Altered Images "See Those Eyes" this morning as I read the article. Makes amusing background music for the animated GIFs.

This brings back memories. I remember watching this in class back when I was like in 1st grade.

[darkvare]

this one cracked me up great article

[Brunbb]

what the hell was all over that candy bar?

and that is definitely not what i imagine pumpkins sounding like.

[teknotheef]

Dude this is classic i-Mockery. I have been waiting for an article like this for a long time!

[greenimp]

at least they dident end up dressed like a klan member going to a rave like last year

[Miroslav208]

That was some really great funky-disco at the beginning.

[qovab]

not as funny as the first one but still pretty funny

[Captain Seamus]

I love these old safety videos. Someone should take the creepier clips and put them in a slasher movie.

"This Halloween...Safety tape won't save you."

[Julio]

What? There's no Incredibly Serious Cat?

[Mockery]

I know Julio, I missed that cat too. I guess the old saying about sequels never being quite as good as the originals apply to educational films as well. After all, the original didn't have a condescending animated talking pumpkin...

[palsy blue stupid]

Hilarious. I thought it was a bit sad that Corey and her father were so formal and awkward around each other like they barely knew each other: "have you ever seen the inside of a pumpkin before?" I get the feeling he isn't around much anymore.

Also, the introduction with the floating masks could be the start for a great music video for The Cure.

[peh_]

Holy &$*#, I so remember watching this... I love how the pumpkin is a creepy voyeuristic perv... Happy Halloween!

[Desert_Screams]

Damn. Nobody ever gave me pills when I went trick or treating. I feel so deprived. :(

[Mockery]

Well there's always this year, Desert_Screams. And if they don't just hand the pills out to you, offer to raid their medicine cabinets. And while you're in there, go for the Flintstones vitamins. Or better yet, see if they have an old pack of Monster vitamins!

[Colonel Flagg]

Are you sure those "pills" weren't just orange-flavored tic tacs? :yum

[Nick]

That pumpkin is a jerk.

[A Bad Enough Dude]

All the kids dressin' like witches and ghost-es.
I put a nasty-ass bitch in hypnosis

[21stcenturysucks!]

LOL! OMG! I remember when they showed us this video in 2nd Grade. So old!
