To quote my favorite podcast, *My Favorite Murder*, it's spoOOOky Halloweeeen! If you're out at the West Hollywood Halloween "parade" (why do they call it a parade? It's just a street fair) and see an Abbott and Costello, say hi. —*Patrick Gomez, Editor-in-Chief*

Emma Stone stars as Michelle in 'Bugonia'.

Is she an alien, or just a typical CEO? This question is at the heart of director Yorgos Lanthimos' twisty new film. Emma Stone plays Michelle Fuller, the powerful leader of pharmaceutical company Auxolith, who gets kidnapped by Teddy (Jesse Plemons), a conspiracy theorist convinced Michelle is really an Andromedan — an extraterrestrial sent to Earth to destroy it. Come to see Stone get her head shaved, stay for big laughs, darkly incisive commentary, and incredible performances from Stone, Plemons, and newcomer Aidan Delbis in this absurdist black comedy. —*Lauren Huff, Staff Writer*

The Witcher

Liam Hemsworth on 'The Witcher' season 4.

Fans lamented when Henry Cavill announced his exit as monster hunter Geralt. Liam Hemsworth picks up the White Wolf's blades on season 4 of the Netflix series that also stars Laurence Fishburne, and the suspense is killing us — not like a basilisk, but maybe a drowner. —*Debbie Day, Staff Editor*

Before *La La Land* and "I'm Just Ken," there were… zombies. Ryan Gosling's 2009 one-off album with his pal Zach Shields and the Silverlake Conservatory Children's Choir is the perfect Halloween soundtrack — a monster-ghost love story that's equal parts sweet and spooky. —*Jason Lamphier, Senior Editor*
