It wasn’t until this past Saturday that I fully realized just how strong of a film THE STRANGERS (review) is. Seeing it in theaters elicited seat stirring and all manner of other audible audience discomfort, but seeing it in a home theater was an entirely different experience.

Maybe, maybe not talks of a theatrical RE-ANIMATOR remake in 3D. A doomed proposal for a teencentric HERBERT WEST television series. The release of CTHULHU as an impressive black and white short and a less impressive Tori Spelling starrer on DVD. Countless other ambitious amateur adaptations.

It was of no surprise to me to see it receive a unanimous induction into the LOTTD. I should have [...]
I’m thriftly acquiring a page from Drew McWeeny (he’ll always be Moriarty to me) and his Daily Read. I make no promise that it’ll be a daily occurrence until I move to Austin and have much, much more time on my hands. I also would not count on the content being horror exclusive nor all [...]
