Many horror fans look forward to AMC's FearFest, so it's a pleasure to say that it's starting this week on Oct. 13. AMC will be kicking off the annual fest with a marathon of the "Halloween" movies. This starts at 9 a.m. EST (8 a.m. CT) with the first "Halloween" movie and after that it goes up to 'Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers" and starts over playing them up to five again at night. So you have two chances to catch them up to five, once starting at 9 a.m. EST and the second chance at 7 p.m. EST.

The next day is dedicated to the "Friday the 13th" movies, which that marathon starts on Oct. 14 at 9 a.m. EST. AMC is airing the first to "Jason X." Oct. 15 is a mix of "Nightmare on Elm Street" movies and "Chucky" movies.

Sunday (Oct. 16) is dedicated to "The Walking Dead." So that's what "FearFest" is looking like. It goes from from Oct. 13 through Halloween. Will you be watching this year? Share your thoughts in the comments!
