She never allows herself to get close to anyone in fear they'll discover her secret, but when she meets a charismatic philanthropist, Adaline is reminded of her long-suppressed passion for life and romance. (PG-13)

Little Women
If there could be a Little Women for every season (and truly, there could), then Greta Gerwig's 2019 version would be the version to watch in fall.

(PG)
Halloweentown (1998)
A town where it's Halloween all the time? Moving there, stat. And how often do we get to see the literally iconic Debbie Reynolds waving her hands over a cauldron?
Jennifer’s Body (2009)
Karyn Kusama and Diablo Cody's maligned masterpiece is finally getting its due, but so many still haven't seen it! This is a twist on demonic possession that has more in common with Heathers than Dawn of the Dead, plus a killer MCR-style soundtrack.
The Addams Family (1991)
Morticia and Gomez are absolute relationship goals, not that we need an excuse to put another Christina Ricci movie on this list. Her turn as Wednesday will forever be…haunting.
Death Becomes Her (1992)
People forget Meryl Streep had a funny side long before The Devil Wears Prada. She and Goldie Hawn go head-to-head over Bruce Willis in this supernatural black comedy that's as soapy as soap can be.
