Nonetheless, it’s becoming more and more frequent nowadays, too, thanks to the popularity of films like Tucker And Dale Vs Evil and TV shows such as Todd And The Book Of Pure Evil. In its press notes, OMG…We’re In A Horror Movie compares itself [...]

All Hallows Eve (2013), written and directed by Damien Leone, was a refreshing take on the horror anthology. The film had a simple but solid premise that was used as a framing device for the omnibus; two children discover an unmarked VHS tape in their haul of sweets after trick or treating. This tale, in the vein of an urban legend, fuses each of the three separate segments on the tape [...]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer #23 feels like the true first step on the path to the season 10 finale, in the best way possible. While headroom isn’t necessarily made with each character and their fear of separating from the overall group, each of those distances is at least addressed and brought back to the forefront. In particular, the issue focuses most heavily on Andrew and his penchant for always stabbing [...]

Controversy swarms the Netflix documentary Making a Murderer as many argue the series is one-sided and biased toward Steven Avery’s innocence. Web sleuths and the media dug deeper into the case and pointed out that incriminating evidence was left out of the popular 10-part series, and villainous former prosecutor Ken Kratz dismissed the doc as a work of fiction. Kratz (doing what he does best) ran his mouth to the [...]

Rock music and horror have always sort of gone hand in hand. Both are rebellious in nature but, at the same time, are often financed by major studios. This kind of music and the images conjured up by horror films also seem to go together quite nicely. During the 1980’s especially, they both fed into each other in a big way. So it’s no surprise, really, that so many of [...]
