Halloween Love is a huge inspiration to me, and I’ve always looked forward to the updates each year, and listening to their radio station. Noticed there are Creator posts and I wanted to share exactly how much Halloween has inspired me through the years, in the various art projects I’ve created. I want to share …

I’m sure there are many people that avoid sad movies the same way they avoid horror movies; they don’t want to cry or be scared. In its face, that seems reasonable, but is probably not healthy to hide from uncomfortable things completely. Whether it’s being scared or crying uncontrollably, as many of the following movies …
I’ve never seen a movie so completely and totally fucked by its trailer. It’s rare these days that movie trailers don’t spoil important plot points, if not give away the entire movie. An even worse sin is to spin a movie to appear as something it’s not. Before we go any further, watch the trailer: …
As the internet does so well, it’s full of black and white hot-takes and very little nuance and context. It’s odd that people are shocked by PlayStation’s announcement that they’re ending physical media, cause I was already late to the game on discussing my opinion about this back in 2024! I’m by no means Nostradamus …
In a word, Obsession is universal, but for studios thinking they can capture and repackage that formula, that’s not enough on its own. Cliché and unoriginal are often considered harsh criticisms, but that’s only when done poorly. Clichés are great in storytelling, when done well. Wish Wishing someone loved you is about as universal as …
I have a very specific memory of renting Nightmare Creatures from a video store in Salem on a Friday night in the fall of 1997. I remember the box art. I remember the way the PlayStation loaded it. I remember the first time a creature lunged out of the London fog at Father Ignatius Blackward …
I was eight years old the first time Evil Dead II broke my brain. I shouldn’t have been watching it. I was, and it was fine, and it made me who I am. The deadite transformations, the possessed hand, Ash running from his own severed limb while it made rude gestures at him, all of …
Tim Burton’s classic 1994 biopic Ed Wood, about the wonderfully weird and inept Edward D. Wood Jr. (played to perfection by Johnny Depp in a very charismatic performance), is a love letter to probably the most infamous 1950s B-movie director of all time, and one of my all-time favorites. Despite the movie being incredibly sanitized, …
“Witch has whole town under spell, as she takes victims the town’s people see this as a sitcom on their home television thinking nothing of it. Only a few are not fooled by this spell.” So what, I’m just describing the plot of WandaVision, right? Actually no, this was a completely original idea I came …
