If you grew up in the 1990s, and developed a taste for the horror genre at a young age, there’s a good chance you remember Skeleton Warriors, an animated cartoon series that aired on CBS from 1994 to 1995, and spawned its very own toy line. Created by Gary Goddard, who a few years prior …
The new Showtime horror series Penny Dreadful needs no gimmicks. The writing, acting, production, etc. are already top-notch. However, in addition to that, there is a wonderfully open-ended sustainability to the show that they’ve set up. They’ve already shown us vampires, ghosts (?), Frankenstein’s monster, and other possible creatures with an only partially-linear construct to …
Seeing as how the very first episode of Hannibal‘s second season kicked off with a brutal fight sequence between Dr. Lecter and Jack Crawford, which took place some time after the majority of the season’s events, I was pretty certain that last night’s finale was going to be a total shocker, with at least one …
Not bad, not good, just pointless. Rosemary’s Baby (2014), to the shock of no one I’m sure, comes no where near the atmosphere, melancholy, and greatness of the original classic. I don’t even have a default position of prejudging remakes, I enjoy plenty of remakes. I also have no complaints about this particular remake, other …
I love the TV show and what they have managed to create but when I think of The Walking Dead I think of the comic book first and probably always will. I’ve followed it from the beginning and despite the occasional bump in the road it remains an unmissable and truly unique publication where anything …
The River television series, which is yet another shaky, found-footage venture from the Paranormal Activity guys, was surprisingly fun. I would chalk this up to being a guilty pleasure because the writing and dialogue were painfully stupid. From characters that don’t understand a word of Spanish, to being able to speak it fluently after a …
Regular readers will know I have been looking into my past recently through articles I call ‘Inevitability’ … I gave them that name because when I look at what interested and excited me as a kid it nearly always had subtle traces of horror lurking within. Sometimes it might have just been a spooky character …

Clowns … They bother me! Today I’m counting down the 10 clowns that have freaked me out the most over the years. Some are typical horror movie creations, others just turned up in regular TV shows and films, but their appearances left a mark on my young mind and shaped an unnerving dislike for them …
I write about my childhood a lot here on Halloween Love but I suppose that’s inevitable. Every drop of passion and love I have for the horror genre was born and developed in my youth. As I’ve always said … it was age-appropriate imagery that first sparked my interest in horror and that just grew …
