Living in the UK means I rarely find food products that could be classed as EXCITING, we’re just not that kind of country. So every couple of weeks I like to head to a specialist store that opened up in my home town about two years ago which sells imported candy, chocolate bars, canned drinks …
We all remember slap bands when were kids, those Airheads-shaped colorful bands that you could slap around you and your friend’s wrists over and over in a habitual manner as hyper kids tend to do. I remember them specifically from the Scholastic Book Fairs of elementary school where we’d find all sorts of Halloween-themed goodies: …
It’s often said that the TV series Roseanne was way ahead of its time, and the show’s many Halloween specials serve as a prime example of that. Airing in October of 1989, during the second season, Roseanne’s very first Halloween-themed episode was something that was practically unheard of on the small screen at the time, …
The cool thing about the Halloween season is that EVERYONE suddenly embraces and celebrates the things we love all year round. Non-horror television shows have proven to be no exception to that rule over the years, often getting their horror on in the weeks leading into the greatest holiday of the year. Of course, no …
Sunday has once again arrived all too quickly and here at Halloween Love that means one thing – it’s time for another batch of incredible poster images from the thriving alternative art community! So far I’ve revealed my personal favorite posters that pay tribute to: Jaws – Stephen King’s IT – Alien – The Shining …
For many of us the journey toward a love and appreciation of horror will have started with the same things across our childhoods. Spooky toys, certain movies we were either allowed to watch or secretly viewed when our parents weren’t around. Cartoon shows, reading books, and that oh so magical Halloween season. They all combine …
Once hailed as “The Next Spielberg,” M. Night Shyamalan has become somewhat synonymous with disappointing failure. He came onto the scene with the arguably universally adored The Sixth Sense, but many fear his directorial prowess stopped there. Films like Unbreakable and Signs have their respective fanbases, but the failures of Lady in the Water, The …
I can’t think of a horror movie that’s proven more polarizing over the years than Halloween 3: Season of the Witch, the oddball sequel that tossed aside the story of Michael Myers and (attempted) to take the franchise down a completely new path. Only in recent years has the tale of murderous Halloween masks been …
Back in 1986, Media Home Entertainment released a documentary about that year’s Fangoria Weekend of Horrors event, which hit VHS and never (officially) made the transition to DVD. Running an hour long, the tape included footage shot on the convention floor, clips from horror movies, and interviews with various stars, and it’s a must-watch time …
Given Hollywood’s obsession with the origin stories of iconic characters, it’s somewhat surprising that the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise has never spawned a full-on prequel. Oddly enough, it was the pilot episode of Freddy’s Nightmares – a show that didn’t have much to do with the character – that delved deepest into Krueger’s origins, …
