The first time I watched Zoltan, Hound Of Dracula (also known as ‘Dracula’s Dog’) I was about 9 years old. It was a very hot Summers day, roughly 3pm in the afternoon and I was curled up on the sofa with a bad cold. My Dad got me a LARGE Strawberry Sundae from the ice …
Dead & Buried is a disturbing, disturbing movie, delightfully so. Oh, and Robert Englund has a small part in it.
Most words have many meanings, definitions, and interpretations.

I’ll never forget the first time I attended a horror convention. It was Maryland’s annual HorrorFind Weekend event, in August of 2005. I was 19 years old, with my dad by my side. And neither of us had any idea what we were getting into… in the very best of ways. Though horror conventions were …
In honor of Valentine’s Day I’m going to present five of my favorite horror movie duos. Of course these are open to interpretation but I think you’d be hard pressed to disagree. 5.

I’m of course talking about 1981’s My Bloody Valentine, a Canadian production …
At the beginning of my first post, I mentioned collecting VHS tapes. At last count, I have over 100 tapes, mostly horror. The best part of this hobby is “The Hunt”. Yard sales, thrift stores & flea markets have become my Mecca for the dead format. eBay is a treasure trove of lost tapes and …
I collect VHS tapes. As long as it’s horror, or occasionally action. Or Sci-Fi. Or exploitation comedy. Ok, so I collect any VHS. If you ask my wife, she will tell you I have too many. But any horror fan will tell you that VHS is how we fell in love with the genre. It …
