The Descent (2005) — A Claustrophobe’s Worst Nightmare

By now Neil Marshall’s horror masterpiece The Descent has been given its fair share of praise, but when a film succeeds this well can we ever give it enough? The film is now eleven years old but I still find myself revisiting it at least once per year, often more, which is strange considering I

It’s officially October the 1st! What does that mean? It means it’s time to start roasting some pie pumpkins, making your own fresh pumpkin puree (PRO TIP: the stuff in the can is a mixture of various squash. Booo). Yes! You finally have a reason to put that tiny bottle of Pumpkin Pie Spice in

All Phantasm Films Ranked!

When I was much younger, my aunt told me of a film she’d seen at the drive-in many years ago, of how she almost fainted at the sight of a flying silver ball with spikes burrowing itself into a man’s head. This film was Phantasm. With this newfound knowledge I had been given, I began

Scream Queens 2.02 “Warts and All” Review

Scream Queens returned last night to reveal Chanel #5’s fate, and…she’s fine. I told you so. Unfortunately, no one believes her story despite the proof of werewolf girl’s decapitated head (though the rest of her body has magically disappeared) and green ooze footprints up and down the hall. The detective on the case decides they

Found Me Some Halloween Beer, Just in Time for DRINK BEER DAY!

Halloween themed beer is once again starting to appear in UK stores, so this afternoon I decided to treat myself to a few bottles of golden goodness, totally unaware that TODAY is apparently ‘Drink Beer Day’ … Well, in that case it would be rude not to! I’ll be starting with Hobgoblin Ruby Beer, which

Scream Queens 2.01 “Scream Again” Review

When Scream Queens premiered last year, it was after a heavy marketing push and a lot of fanfare. It was the newest show from mastermind Ryan Murphy, the man who brought us the hits Glee and American Horror Story. He’d even managed to snag the OG scream queen herself, Jamie Lee Curtis (Laurie Strode from
