Whereas most of the things us horror fans watch start off happy and then take a turn for the horrifying, The Walking Dead is one show that wasted absolutely no time getting to the latter. In the premiere episode, Rick Grimes woke up in a hospital bed and quickly discovered that the world had gone …
If there’s any major change from the first half of Walking Dead‘s fourth season and the first half of its fifth season, it’s that Rick Grimes has gone from pacifist to Punisher, fully embracing his badass side and committed to doing whatever needs to be done to protect his family. Just as Grimes’ balls are …
Forensic analyst by day and serial killer by night, Dexter murders evil criminals who slip through the cracks of Miami’s defective judicial system. He then places a drop of their blood on a glass slide and tucks it away in his slide box. Create your own “trophy case” of edible slides this Halloween with this …
It was to be expected that Season 5’s action-packed premiere episode of The Walking Dead would pave the way for a handful of slower ones, centered mostly on driving the story to an epic mid-season conclusion. Anyone who’s been watching The Walking Dead with any regularity surely knows the way the show works at this …

Because all of these things were packed into …
There are a few traditions that are an essential part of my annual Halloween experience, which include drinking enough pumpkin beer to turn part-gourd and, of course, carving at least one terrible looking jack o’lantern that just begs to be smashed on my porch by trick or treaters who don’t appreciate the finer things in …
It feels like just yesterday that a plane full of undead passengers landed in New York, and long-tongued vampires began ravaging the city. And yet, it was nearly three months ago that The Strain premiered on FX, the show wrapping up its inaugural season with last night’s 13th episode. Throughout the course of the season, …
Now that Californication has wrapped up, we’ll be seeing David Duchovny pick up the gun again and return to grittier roots, as a once-again law enforcer, tracking down the Manson Family in the new TV show Aquarius (coming in 2015). This is going to be fun.
One of the strongest aspects of The Strain‘s inaugural season has been the decades-spanning story of good vs. evil, reflected in the relationship between Abraham Setrakian and The Master’s right hand man, Thomas Eichorst. If Eichorst is Dracula then Setrakian is Van Helsing, and it’s of course no coincidence that the latter shares a first …
