I know I am one of few people who actually didn’t mind Zombie’s reboot of Halloween – yes, it was nothing like Carpenter’s classic, but I thought he did a decent job of translating the story for a contemporary audience, and some of the kill scenes were FANTASTIC. So, I put Halloween 2 on my

Normally I wouldn’t even mention a movie as bad as this, but I’m thinking that maybe there are some other horror fans out there who *might* be curious, especially fans of Creepshow 1 & 2. But TRUST ME, skip this. I should have known since Romero and King had absolutely nothing to do with this
So while I was making my regular Top 10 & decade list this year, I found I kept sticking horror films in it, and then decided they needed a home of their own, because 1) lists are fun, and 2) I need to update this blog sometime, right? Feel free to argue, but here’s what
Being blown-away by the creepiness of A Tale of Two Sisters long ago at a midnight SIFF showing, I was apprehensive about the US version, but still curious enough to want to see it-obviously not that badly, since I just recently caught it on DVD. But man, did they fuck it up. I don’t think
I really wanted to like Jennifer’s Body. Like, really, really, REALLY wanted to like it. Why? Because I think Diablo Cody is great. I loved Juno. She seems witty on Twitter. She’s fierce and independent and beautiful and clever – and she’s a woman writer making it in Hollywood. Sadly, I was as bored as

I think my favorite reaction is the guy with
Sometime when I was around 8 or 9, the flashy new cable channel my dad had ordered kept playing previews for Brian De Palma’s Dressed to Kill. I was fascinated by the scene in the elevator with the flash of a straight razor. I BEGGED my parents to let me watch it. “Let me watch
First a confession: this song is growing on me at a somewhat alarming rate, which I find slightly disturbing as I never thought I would like any Pink song, much less admit it in my blog, but there you go. In any case, the whole reason for posting this video is because I happened to
ZombieHarmony This might be my new favorite thing ever – massive points to these folks for all the little details, like the search options (slow-moving, fast-moving, immobile, limbs intact, some limbs intact, NO limbs intact), interests, and even the banners you can add to your site! LOVE.
The first in a series – this has be the biggest flaw in the first Scream movie (altho I still love it to death). Screenwriter Williamson gets some major points for having Tatum scream “fucker” as she throws the beer bottle, but clearly lost some brain cells thinking that the garage door would actually lift
