Oh I haven’t done one of these in a while! So for anyone who isn’t new, Retro Rundown is a series I do on here where I rewatch episodes (mostly tv shows) of horror shows and just give a review of them in the mindset of more maturity, adult life instead of like… half watching … Continue reading Retro Rundown: The Twilight Zone “The Odyssey of Flight 33” Review

Favorites in Horror Decades: The 60s
A new “series” on the blog but I wanted to talk about my adventures into different decades of horror. We can talk about the 80s and 90s horror all we want, they are great, and the 80s is oversaturated but home of the big franchises but no one is really giving earlier decades its due. … Continue reading Favorites in Horror Decades: The 60s
SoH Reviews: 13 Ghosts (1960)
It’s been a while since I’ve done a review for this film, maybe the last one I did was for Cat People? Reviews have been scarce this year so far because I haven’t been watching a whole lot of “newer” movies lately, it’s been really rough but I am trying and it’s slowly coming back … Continue reading SoH Reviews: 13 Ghosts (1960)
SoH Reviews: Black Sabbath (1963)
We’re continuing the Bava train with another review! Prior to watching 1960’s Black Sunday (or The Mask of Satan), I was super excited to see Bava’s collection on Shudder and I was a little overwhelmed about what to watch. So, we have talked about Shock, Blood and Black Lace, Black Sunday and now we are … Continue reading SoH Reviews: Black Sabbath (1963)
SoH Reviews: Black Sunday (1960)

I saw one on Sunday (11/29) and one the previous week which will be talked about on Saturday’s post but today, we will discuss … Continue reading SoH Reviews: Black Sunday (1960)
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: Top (7) Episodes of The Twilight Zone (S1) + HM

SoH Reviews: The Terror
This is a long time ago found at a goodwill movie to finally sit and watch. I also watched this after Sleepwalkers which is why I’m knocking out two reviews at once. They mentioned a twist in the summary on the back of the cassette box, and I even got a recent DM response mentioning … Continue reading SoH Reviews: The Terror
