my favorite parts of the movie are the first 15 minutes or so.

first off the intro music is incredible...LOVE IT...I think it's a harpsichord and sounds just great, definately creepy

next, the smiling skull gets me every time!...is this supposed to be funny?...
it's like, don't worry, the movie is harmless!

and finally runaway Billy talking to the guy sitting in the tree. what the hell is that guy doing there? then again, hanging out by yourself in the middle of nowhere in the dark can be a great time.

I really did like the the scene where Billy is opening his birthday presents and the toy robot walks into the doorway...that is well-done and memorable.

Favorite scene for me would have to be the Spider Lady. The only genuine scary part of the film IMO.God I love these kind of movies!

Yes the Spider Lady scene was wonderfully done.I loved the way they used an attractive oriental woman.It worked very well.

The transformation sequence was well done, let down only by the rubber corpse having its innards sucked out.

There are many awesome moments of Spookies, but my favorite would have to be the scene where Adrienne is being attacked by that gremlin-lizard thing while the cat-demon with a hook is watching from outside. I really love the music that's playing in this scene. I also want to mention the scenes where "the bride" escapes downstairs and is confronted by that witch, where Richard is attacked by the oriental spider lady, and when the grim reaper comes to life. The zombie scene at the end is also great--it also has an excellent score.
And of course, "Happy birthday, Billy. Hahahahahahahahaha!!!"

My favorite part, or at least one of my favorite parts, has to be the end zombie scene. That was awesome. The beginning credits are cool, along with the cool music.

When the bride breaks free of the zombies and finds the car, the zombies stop running and courteously do the Watusi on the hillside while they wait for her to get in the car. Then they resume pursuit once she is safely inside the vehicle.
