If I showed you this cover, what would you think? As someone who has been reading books since the end of 2022, mostly horror, the cover of any book is important. You may not read the back first but the cover will tell YOU whether or not it’s worth investing. And like with eating, we... Continue Reading →

Seasonal Horror
We’re still in summer and yet I’m itching for fall. Mostly because I need my sweatshirt and sweater weather to come NOW cos it’s been so hot. But with sweater weather, I thought of some seasonal horror. I wonder why seasonal horror works so well. It’s a niche genre, yes, I feel like we get... Continue Reading →
SoH Reviews: The Quiet Room (2018)

A Color Story: Clown
I don’t see many talk about this film. Is it underrated? Not easily found to consume? Easily forgotten or simply buried among other films that get pushed to the side? I’ve been meaning to do this film for a while (2 years) but it wasn’t an easy film to find screen captures of. That’s a... Continue Reading →
SoH Reviews: The Void
I don’t know how much I’ll have to say this but I go into watching new movies with low expectations and not knowing much about the film in general. I do remember seeing this particular movie on my tumblr feed recently. Like… as in a couple of days ago and through Shudder, decided to watch... Continue Reading →
