What do "The Lost Boys," "Silver Bullet" and "Watchers" all have in common? They're all incredible horror movies that star the king of horror: Corey Haim.

Since Halloween is upon us, there's no better way to celebrate the spooky holiday than by binge-watching some awesome horror movies and snacking on some sweet candy. Here are six Corey Haim movies you should binge watch this Halloween.

1. "The Lost Boys" (1987)

Nothing beats this vampire cult classic from the 1980s.

Sam and Michael Emerson's parents just got divorced, and they have to move to Santa Carla — the murder capital of the world. On a night out, Michael runs into some trouble with vampires and unknowingly gets turned into one. With the help of the Frog Brothers, Sam helps save his brother from going full-on Dracula. This movie will have you laughing while being frightened!

2. "Silver Bullet" (1985)

This Stephen King classic is one you don't want to miss! Taker's Mill is usually a quiet town, but that all changes after many citizens of the town are mysteriously murdered. Only a young boy named Marty Coslaw is able to put together that the man responsible for these murders isn't a man after all — he's a werewolf!

Join the town of Taker's Mill and Marty as they take down a vicious werewolf this Halloween.

3. "Watchers" (1988)

After visiting his girlfriend, Travis Cornell finds a little surprise in the back of his car: a golden retriever. After Travis takes the dog home, he realizes that this dog isn't any ordinary golden retriever. It's an extremely intelligent research dog.

Little does Travis know that a monster escaped from the same research factory as the dog and is chasing him. Join Travis as he fights off the NSO and the laboratory monster to save his furry friend. This movie will frighten you and warm your heart all at once.

4. "Fever Lake" (1996)

A group of college students kick off an exciting weekend as they party at Fever Lake. On their way there, they are warned several times to not proceed with their getaway, but they refuse to listen. After all, they are staying in their friend Albert's cabin, so nothing bad can happen... right?

This slasher film will have you in on a thrill ride the entire time!

5. "The Backlot Murders" (2002)

As a rock band films their music video on a movie set, many workers and even members of the band get murdered... by an Elvis-masked killer. Find out who is behind the madness when you watch "The Backlot Murders."

It is a fun film that will have you screaming from thrill and fear!

6. "The Hostage Game" (aka "American Sunset") (2010)

"The Hostage Game" isn't exactly a horror movie, but it definitely is a thriller that will instill fear in your heart. One day, Tom MacLean wakes up with knives hanging above him and detectives surrounding him. While he was sleeping, his wife was taken. After the detectives don't give Tom the help he wants to find his wife, he turns to the Embassy. That doesn't help either.

Feeling as if he is left with no other choice, Tom hires a bounty hunter named Arturo. Tom and Arturo start receiving weird clues and weird phone calls, which inform them that they need to play a game for Tom to get his wife back.

This movie has an ending that you certainly will NOT be expecting. It's very worth watching!

Have a happy Haim-o-ween!

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.
