The Hellraiser franchise… a love and hate relationship I have with this franchise. Granted, I haven’t seen ALL of what Hellraiser has to offer but I have enough insight to where it has so much potential (still) to become greater or take that next leap into attracting new fans. But this post is not about... Continue Reading →

Favorites: Top (7) Episodes of The Twilight Zone (S1) + HM
A series that is well beloved and over time seems to be better and better is the classic CBS series, The Twilight Zone, created by Rod Serling. It was almost too ambitious to try to do something like a favorite episode from each season or limiting down what to do. So for this series, I'll... Continue Reading →
Favorites: October Watches
October 2020 has the BIGGEST watchlist so far and it’s time to share some of my favorites so far. I will only list maybe 5 plus 2-3 honorable mentions because we can’t do a list without some honorable mentions!

SoH Reviews: The Evil
An unexpected watch… comes in the form of a 1970s horror film from the streaming site Shudder.

Favorites: Ranking ANOES Franchise
Overdue for a long, long time. The Nightmare on Elm Street franchise is my favorite franchise in the genre. There are only 9 films under its belt and a tv series Freddy’s Nightmares that will be excluded out of this list for the fact that it is a series. Finally, I am going to rank... Continue Reading →

Another day, another favorites post. Today however, is something that has been in the works or at least on my mind for the past few “favorites” and it’s time to talk about Stephen King and some of my top favorite adaptations of his works. His birthday was just last month and it’s spooky season where... Continue Reading →
SoH Reviews: The Cabin in the Woods
A movie that I have “seen” but have not “seen”. A movie that since it’s release has really garnered a lot of critical and audience praise for being campy, fun and unique. We’re talking about the 2010 but 2011 released film The Cabin in the Woods and this is my official first time watching the... Continue Reading →
