What happened to Halloween theme on MonstersHD?

[ram1220]

A while back we were told that Monsters HD would have a Halloween theme during the month of October. All I see are the same movies being played over and over that I've seen since March. Anyone have any insight into this or was Voom stringing us along once again?

I think the movies there are mainly different, however with Voom gearing up to change all the channels it looks like all the changes are "two weeks" away.

Maybe VOOM just forgot?
Let's give them the benefit of the doubt on this.
No company is perfect you know.
Hopefully this thread will jolt the memory of the VOOM team assigned to monitor this forum and they will correct their programming asap.

The key(s) in this statement:
A while back we were told that Monsters HD would have "a" Halloween theme "during" the month of October.
is the letter "a" which means 1 in my volcabulary
and the word "during" which doesn't necessarily mean for, although it could
There's still just less than 4 weeks before Halloween and maybe they mean the day of Halloween or maybe the week of...
If I had any insight, it would probably be, "In Two Weeks"

I wonder if Elvira's boobs are still in good condition.

I wonder if Elvira's boobs are still in good condition.

Why not? They're fake.
