A few weeks ago I made Halloween 3 the focus of our weekly alternative poster art list, and while I was thrilled to see such incredible work paying tribute to this cult masterpiece I remember thinking there really should be more! No movie explores the dark forces that come out to play during Halloween quite …
It was just about 10 years ago that I attended my very first horror convention. I remember feeling at home when I walked into Maryland’s Hunt Valley Inn for HorrorFind Weekend, as the hotel was swarming with people I immediately felt a strong bond with.
