I think that decking out the outside of your house would be hard but if
you could do it"more power to ya" I really cannot think much of what to
add, cept maybe rock piles and maybe you could have "BWP" playing as the
trick or treaters come to the door?

Rockpiles around the house. Perhaps you could make a nest of
sticks. put some rocks in like the one in the tree, then a clear punch
bowl on top of the rocks and put it in the center of the table. Party
food from the movie: marshmallows, cocktail wieners, Power Bars. At each
place setting, a small bundle of sticks, bound with strips from an old
flannel shirt. If you go around to novelty toy and candy stores (I'll bet
the Archie MacPhee catalog would have something appropriate), you can
probably find something cheap and suitably gross (eg, eyeballs,
ears...) made out of candy or plastic, to put in the middle for party
favors. Old movie reel cans (not sure where you'd find them). Old tapes,
partially ripped out, dangling from the walls or ceiling instead of
ribbon. Someone with a grating personality and a knit watch cap following
people with a vcr.

before Halloween, right? That is an awesome thought! We are lucky enough to have a bunch of trees, so that will help.
Maybe I'll dress as Heather. Minus 6 day old undies, of course...

on is an excellent idea. It is supposed to be released right before
Halloween, right?">>
As far as I know I think that it is. The only problem that I say with
the video playing when the trick-or-treaters come to the door is that
there is alot of swearing in the movie and the parents might not like
that to much..( I did not think of this till after I wrote my last post)
but if you know what parts to put it on it should be ok.

2 more ideas I had:
1) The 7 dead guys from Coffin Rock. Depending how much $ you have
budgeted for this project, you could get 7 mannequins or inflatable party
dolls (they must make male ones), or make scarecrow-type figures, stuffed
with hay. Tie them together hand to foot ,the way they were described in
the movie. You could attach fake intestines (representing disembowelment)
made of old nylons or grey tube sox, stuffed and sewn together, daubed
with maroon acrylic paint for blood. You could attach them to a big piece
of gray cardboard cut to a boulder shape, and put it up inside or outside.
2) Compasses that always point south. For each one, a small can from
tuna or cat food, a small magnet to attach to the inner edge, a piece of
styrofoam, cork, or modeling clay in the middle. Make a round paper
compass face. Cut a popsicle stick to fit, decorate it to look like a
compass needle, and glue some small steel thing (eg, a little hexnut or
wingnut) on the underside. Put a small nail through the popsicle stick
and paper compass face, into the piece of styrofoam or whatever in the
middle of the can. Use a little glue to attach the "south" part of the
paper compass face to the magnet. This way, people can try to move the
needle around, but it will always return to "south". I haven't prototyped
this; if anyone tries it, let me know how it works.

ps Another possible outdoor decoration: get a roll of butcher paper and
some tempera paint, and make a bunch of small, waist high handprints. If
you have stairs, you might place this so it looks like the hands that made
the prints were made by someone groping their way up the stairs.

I'll need to invite my buds from alt.drunken.bastards - hopre that won't be a problem....
Heck - keep your fingers crossed. All I need is one pretty good scratch-off win and we're happenin!
And BTW - another quandary. I liked the idea of BWP playing on the bigscreen when the trick-or-treaters crash the scene,
but upon second thought - I can't help but remember the F-word count.
Any way around this? I'm assuming that I can't copy my protected original tape/DVD, and no way am I screwing up the
original...

is an awesome Idea for halloween!!! Hope it turns out good you should
instead of having the film runing record sounds and voices like those in
the movie to play like moans and crying and screams (not the cheesy
halloween tapes either record real stuff) I wish I could go to this
party Id like to see how it turns out have fun!
