There are a small handful of movie moments indelibly etched into my brain, and none are more magical than the first time we saw a glimpse of the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park. It was a scene that solidified my love for cinema, confirming that anything was possible inside the walls of a movie theater. Jurassic …
The online horror community has been flooded with posts about the Insidious franchise in the past couple weeks, brought on by the release of the third installment. Reviews and retrospectives have mostly been the name of the game – in fact, I wrote about both Insidious and Insidious: Chapter 2 right here on HL – …
Last year I gave my opinion on Alien 3, and when I finished writing that piece I decided I wanted to follow it up with a look at Alien Resurrection when I had the motivation to do so. This week I felt the time was right, so with a heavy heart I sat down to …
Toy adverts, movie promos, magazine articles, random clippings – I’ve collected them all over the last 35+ years and now it’s time to pull them out of the darkness and get them digitally immortalized online, so future generations can study them, ponder them and hopefully shout “COOL” every now and then.

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 …
We’ve reached the end of another week – thank god! – which means it’s time to once again take a look at the coolest, weirdest and/or most awesome images I’ve stumbled across on the internet this week. So let’s get right to it, shall we?! Director Vincenzo Natali‘s Twitter account is very new, but it’s …
I just rewatched Open Water, and felt like talking about how great and underappreciated I think it is. How anyone can watch this movie and not find it to be wholly terrifying is beyond me, yet it holds a sad 32% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes (despite having a much more respectable 72% on the …
