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?! When I woke up this morning and checked my phone, …
The origin story of Clown is one that showcases the power of the internet, and the way it has afforded fans unprecedented opportunities in the world of filmmaking. To summarize, director Jon Watts made a same-named faux trailer a few years back, which caught the attention of Eli Roth. So in love with the idea …
My earliest horror memories are not of being scared by the movies, but rather having a whole lot of fun watching them. I fell in love with Freddy Krueger at a pretty young age, perhaps younger than one should be at the time of delving into the genre, and I can count on one hand …
It’s no secret that us fans are nostalgic for 80s slasher flicks, and countless films that have come along in the past decade have attempted to recreate the magic of that era – with varying results. There’s perhaps no film that accomplished the task better than Adam Green’s Hatchet – a movie that new release …
I am, and have always been, a staunch advocate of practical effects. True, modern technology can be a wonderful tool when used in the proper capacity, but there are few things that have done more damage to the horror genre than the advent of CGI: computer-generated imagery.

The ‘mash-up’ film has become a bonafide sub-genre of horror in recent years, with movies like Sharktopus, Piranhaconda and the upcoming Zombeavers stitching together two different things to form silly slices of entertainment.

As you’ve probably heard, a substitute teacher in Ohio was recently busted for showing several groups of 14 to 18-year-old students the 2012 anthology film The ABCs of Death, sentenced this past week to serve 90 days in jail for the crime – on top of three years probation. It’s a very controversial sentence, and …
In last week’s recap I described stellar episode ‘Remember’ as a bold reinvention of The Walking Dead, taking the show in an entirely new direction. While the series had admittedly been getting a bit stale, the arrival at Alexandria provided a much-needed breath of fresh air – so much so that it felt like the …
My earliest horror movie memories are not of being scared by the movies, but simply having a whole lot of fun watching them. I fell in love with Freddy Krueger at a pretty young age, perhaps younger than one should be at the time of delving into the genre, and I can count on one …
After being taken to the titular Island of Dr. Moreau in the oft-maligned 1996 adaptation of H. G.
