The first few weeks of August have come and gone and the summer of 2011 has had its share of big budget, summer blockbusters to deepen pockets and hustle children with promises of action figures and printed […]

I can’t begin to tell you how obsessed my mother was with Candyman. Aside from my early exposure to The Exorcist and Halloween, these were some of my first horror flicks. Looking back, I probably shouldn’t have […]

Death. It’s the most final of words; even in the thesaurus it is synonymous with words like ‘finish’ or ‘exit.’ To death, there’s no beginning, middle and end. There are no more birthdays, no more promotions at […]

Documentaries aren’t always boring. Sure, there are the ones that focus on a subject that’s duller than a sixth grade science class, but Wyrd’s Splat Pack piece is just the opposite. For a horror fan, it’s like […]

Area 51 gives off more movie ammo than a storage room filled with AK47′s. Just about everyone who is anyone in the science fiction realm has touched upon the Nevada military base with their own story; their own […]

Women in horror are a rarity- diamonds in the rough if you will. And I’m not talking about the scream queens and the damsels in distress- I’m talking about the rest of us red blooded females who live and breathe […]

The wait is over. The teaser trailers are a thing of the past. The constant stream of leaked production photos and set news has come to a screeching halt. Tomorrow is the big day- the highly anticipated fourth […]

Thirty years ago, brothel owner, Rachel “Madam” Won Ton (Debbie Rochon) had the night of her life with one of her most notorious customers a man known only as “E”. After a night of crazy sex and major drug use […]

It’s the Reagan era, and the war on drugs is on. Enter America’s latest weapon. Scientific name: Stachybotrys Morte – Stachy Mort for short – a microscopic mold developed for the military to uncompromisingly […]

It was love at first sight. My heart went a flutter. My breath became quick and rigid. I froze, I literally froze. It feels like only yesterday that I fell in love with Alex Pardee. Not the man (though he is a […]

Where was I when the hunting nightmares phenomena began; and why wasn’t I in on it? Acclaimed artist Alex Pardee is unveiling his brand new show “Vertigo: A Decade of Hunting Nightmares” starting tomorrow […]

How long has it been since you watched a truly low-budget horror film and you just knew that it was something special? For me, only a few come to mind – Halloween, The Evil Dead, Henry: A Portrait of a Serial […]

Here we are- Christmas Eve. Tonight is the night when Santa rides his sleigh through of the dark of night. As we learned, though, Krampus may be in tow. Shoppers finish up last minute gifts, but buyer beware: […]

Ghost stories aren’t just a Halloween thing. Watching shows like Paranormal State, Ghost Hunters, and even movies like Paranormal Activity prove that ghosts can, and will, happen at any time of year. They aren’t […]

2010 brought another installment in the Paranormal Activity series (I can call it that now that there’s a third movie in the works). Eli Roth and company possessed us with The Last Exorcism. And then there was Saw […]

Weight loss. Quit smoking. Stop spending. Sounds familiar, right? With New Years Eve and the dawn of 2011 only about a week away, the year’s biggest, most burning question is probably hidden somewhere in the […]

Why is it that Christmas is littered with sharp, inventive and downright dangerous decorations? I can think of a million different ways for a serial killer to murder someone with a string of lights alone. Add in […]

Let’s face it; Christmas is a consumer driven holiday. Much of what we consider tradition wouldn’t be possible without Black Friday, over the limit credit lines, and constant cash flow. In the minds of children […]

24 hours of A Christmas Story goes with Christmas just as much as sugar cookies and baked ham. It’s a tradition. Yesterday, I took a look at horror’s favorite classic, The Nightmare Before Christmas. But today, […]

Christmas movies are a dime a dozen. Home Alone. Miracle on 34th Street. A Christmas Story. The strikingly morbid It’s a Wonderful Life. I could go on and on, flaunting my film knowledge for days, but no matter […]
