What is FearFest? In 1997, AMC launched Monsterfest, a popular week-long marathon of horror movies and thrillers that aired in late October. On September 26, 2008, AMC announced the launch of a new horror-themed movie marathon for its October schedule called “Fearfest” which replaced Monsterfest.

Includes the iconic film franchises Halloween, Friday the 13th, Leprechaun, Alien, and Stephen King classics. FearFest programming will also be available to On-Demand platforms.

I am disappointed in this years fear fest. No dracula, no Scream, not even the Halloweens in order. Independence Day really? What about The Strangers or Child’s Play or any of the Insidious or the Conjuring??
Very disappointed1
Hi how are y’all doing tonight I’m Jay from NC
Now the volume is off during Halloween 1978! Only channel like that on my tv! Please fix it AMC!
I agree , very disappointing line-up… no classic Hollywood: Frankenstein, Wolfman.. AMC channel has never been the same since it started commercial TV. I watch it very little now days.
I’m on not happy about this year’s fear fest. I was surprised they didn’t show child’s play, scream or scary movie. Instead of fear fest starting October 13 or towards the middle of October. Why not start October 1st to October 31. A whole month of scary movies. No Damien, the omen, cujo, Carrie and some other movies shouldn’t be shown.
Very disappointed, no classics( Dracula, Frankenstein, wolfman, not even nightmare of elm st.) Lots of double showings, none of the sequels in order, movies that have nothing to do with Halloween horror. You can do better than this!!
They don’t own the rights to show those old movies, so they are limited to what movies they can have on
I agree with others, why can’t you show some of the scary movies like Dracula, Werewolf of London, movies from the 60’s when I was a kid. Those were scary to me. At least give us a variety of old and new.
Is the Halloween movie playing on amc tonight I love and enjoy it thNks
Jay if you get IFC it’s on right now.
Uh…It’s November 1st now, Halloween is over. Why would it be on?
