Movieline's Week In Review: Hold Us, We're Scared

[Cue scary wind sound] Hellooooo, Movieline reader. Have you come for a Halloween... treat? [Cue werewolf howl in the distance] Let me interest you in our toothsome Week in Review, a compendium of chills, thrills and terror... and that's just The A-List. [Cue organ and theremin] Be sure to say hello to the weekend undertaker Dixon Gaines, ghoul be your guide through the spirited days to come. And you most certainly won't want to miss our special Halloween coverage on Sunday -- if, that is, you can escape at all! Bwahahaha! No, seriously, have a great weekend, and do drop by Sunday! We'll have candy!

· Resident horror guru Brian Clark carefully curated the must-see Halloween 25 for your viewing pleasure. Thanks, Brian!

· Thanks to this week's interviewees, including the one and only James Franco, Sigourney Weaver, Ian Somerholder, Bill Nighy, Jessalyn Gilsig, Gillian Jacobs and Verge honoree Whitney Able.

· A new week of Saturday Night Live means a new edition of the Relevancy Poll. Negative points for stealing, guys!

· The new Mission: Impossible 4 title left something to be desired, but Tom Cruise's new emoticon was just about perfect.

· Recaps! Hoo boy, we got recaps, include ZOMG the Project Runway finale, South Park, Glee, Modern Family, Gossip Girl, Grey's Anatomy, Boardwalk Empire, Mike & Molly, The A-List: New York, The Event, Bored to Death and, as always, Erin Andrews' accompaniment on Dancing With the Stars.

· SNL and "chowderhead vérité" became unlikely factors in the Oscar Index.

· Charlie Sheen got wasted and (sort of) trashed a hotel room. Then it was off to rehab -- for all the good that'll do.

· Gay Bert and the Fat Mafia were all the rage. Like, literally.

· We celebrated an awesome movie's anniversary, but enough about Vampire in Brooklyn.
