I’m shocked I haven’t touched on this topic. It’s something that has been on the list of topics to do for so long that I kinda forgot about it. Oops. In a time where we depend so much on technology and it changes so fast overnight, we’ve seen more horror films use technology as the... Continue Reading →
Stephen King’s The Stand: Book (1978) vs Miniseries (1994)
Ohhhh I’ve been dreading this one. And not for bad reasons but overwhelmed reasons? Look, we’re talking about Stephen King and his works and those can be a manifesto type of situation but we don’t have time for that! I’ll say up front, last read, picked up a few new thrifted books and one was... Continue Reading →

October Fun Questions
Happy October aka the spookiest month of them all! I wanted to do something a bit more different, fun, not stress myself out which I already do on a normal basis but this is something you can do yourself!

Top 13 Fashion/Costume Moments in Horror
The other day, I was randomly watching the 1971 film “Blood from the Mummy’s Tomb”, a Hammer film production (and I mean I randomly chose this) and while watching it, my eye kept getting caught by the lead character Margaret (played by Valerie Leon) and her purple coat. Every time she wore this coat, I... Continue Reading →

Small Town Horror
Fun fact, I live in a township. I don’t know if that qualifies as “fun” but it is a fact and it is true. I also had to look up what the hell a township even is and it is “numbered” and “sectionalized land system” which makes sense in the state where I live, there... Continue Reading →
SoH Reviews: The Vault of Horror (1973)

Invasion Horror
I didn’t know what to write about this week… I will say the benefit of being a constant writer and note taker is that I will write down ANY idea that comes into my head about topics on this blog. I haven’t had time to watch anything new (especially Poltergeist II) but I’m hoping for... Continue Reading →
SoH Reviews: The Fly II (1989)
The day (6/12) started out weird with the wifi going in and out. And since it was being unreliable, I had 2 options: watch dvds or watch my vhs tapes and there were only 2 left in my collection that I had to watch. I chose the latter. The other option was Poltergeist II which... Continue Reading →
