After nearly a year without the vamps, wolves and sweet southern mind-reader in our lives, True Blood made its return to HBO last night for the show’s seventh season, which is the last hurrah for Sookie and the gang. Once the 10-episode season comes to an end, so too does the series as a whole, …
It was over 20 years ago that the very first episode of The X-Files premiered on Fox, which was followed up by a whopping 201 more. The popular show ran for an impressive nine seasons, making it – at the time – the longest running consecutive science fiction series ever on U.S. broadcast television. Naturally, …
So, you’re probably wondering who the freak is in the picture above, wearing a smart evening tails suit, bow tie, white gloves and a nightmare inducing mask. A serial killer from a new found-footage horror film? A long forgotten maniac from a low budget early 80s slasher? A rejected costume concept for the Scream movies? …
British TV on a sleepy Sunday afternoon rarely features programming that attracts my attention, but this week a little piece of iconic horror history suddenly appeared on the screen and it was fascinating to watch what happened next. Channel 4 in the UK has a programme called Four Rooms, (which I believe is also produced …
Today we continue our year-long celebration of A Nightmare on Elm Street‘s 30th anniversary here on Halloween Love, having previously covered such topics as an unaired reality TV show from the early 2000s called Real Nightmares, Wes Craven’s New Nightmare, the Nightmare on Elm Street remake and even the 90s series Nightmare Cafe, created by …
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 …
