Art Direction vs Cinematography
I don’t know how or why or where this topic came from to be honest. With all the movies I’ve watched so far this year and just taking notes of how fun and innovative and exciting horror has been lately (it always has been, even in lull periods) and I just wanted to acknowledge some...

Double Feature Review: The Boogens (1981) & Night of the Comet (1984)
This was not planned! I had another idea I was planning on doing but I basically missed the entire first day to get started on it (aka Monday, went out for 3 hours to do errands and got exhausted) and with Tuesday, I know I don’t have enough time to research and go looking through...

High School Horror (2003-2006)
It’s 2003 and I’m entering high school. What was happening in 2003? I was watching The WB and America’s Next Top Model (what an awful show looking back) and enjoying Power Rangers Ninja Storm (I still think that’s a great PR season). It’s also a time when for me, horror was a bit more “mainstream”... Continue Reading →
Technology & Horror
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 →

Horror Watchlist & Booklist of 2023
Ohhhh this year has been something else. Little ole me looks back at the previous years and what I watched and how much I watched and honestly, I'm surprised I watched ANYTHING this year.

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 →
