This is why I do this! It’s gems like this that get my excited. I don’t do this marathon so that I can drone on about movies I’ve seen twenty times, it’s for me to find cool new movies. It’s for me people! It’s all about ME!! So, when I discovered The House of the …
Sometimes in life things surprise you. Case in point Slither. On the surface this looks like a cheesy 80s low-budget horror film ,like Tremors, but its not that. It’s not terrifying, or torture. It’s not shot dark and grimy or shakey-cam. It’s very standard in most of those ways, and very different in others but …
Yes, this is a horror show. I don’t care if some of ya’ll agree or not, but you have a serial killer and that is horror. I’m going to talk about Dexter, and specifically season 1. The marathon continues and I would be remiss if I didn’t at least mention this Showtime show. For me, …
We are going back to the comics medium today. I’m not a big horror comics guy, and really there aren’t that many options out there, you got Walking Dead, Steve Niles stuff and old comics. The old comics I’m referring to are the EC books and Eerie and Creepy back from the 40s, 50s and …
First off, I hate re-makes, I can’t think of one right now that I like. Comment on this if you have one. So, when I heard about people re—making one of my favorite horror films, I was like, “Forget that big-nose, I aint watchin’ it.” Then someone just told me to watch it a couple …
Once upon a time there was a creator, his name was Chris Carter. He name a phenomenon called X-files. Everyone loved it and him. With his new-found powers he made another show that was not as loved but even better than X-files, it was called Millennium. I was one of those faithful followers of X-files, …
Today I talk about one of my all-time favorites. John Carpenter’s The Thing. Back in 1982 this amazing movie came out, and I just watched it last night, and it’s still amazing. Seriously guys the special effects in this are still great and if you think about this was 30 years ago and STILL it …
Got a new one for ya’ll. Before I get into this movie, let me say that the main actress in this is from Friday Night Lights, and if I can ever take a moment and talk about that brilliant TV show I will. It’s not about football. It’s not about Texas small town. It’s about …
Zombies, Vampires…. Bah! Werewolves are where it’s at son! Let me tell you a little story, a woman named Colleen had 3 children. She loved movies, especially science fiction and horror flicks. She got that from her dad. So one day she bought a VCRand then bought another one that could record. With 2 VCRs …
Now we are in my domain biscuits! It’s the second half of the month and I am stoked to talk about my FAVORITE comic book… well at least horror comic. (Maus would be my all-time) First off, some of you might be thinking, “what, comics?? Where’s the movies?” Look simpletons, comics are were it’s at. …
The Danes are jacked up man! Okay boys and girls, I’m changing things up a little, we are half-way through the month, I still am unemployed and there’s only so many risks I can take in watching horror movies that I have no idea if they are good or not. So, every now and then …
Wait, I don’t get it Andres, how can we be on Day 10, when we were just reading Day 14… and it’s Oct 14th too! Well, I’m a Looper, so deal with it. Actually you are in a time-warp and I was camping for 2 days, which due to rain and my crappy tent, we …

Miike is one crazy mo-fo. What is amazing to me is that this movie was made in 1999. Twelve years ago and to me it’s freakish. The poop doesn’t hit the fan until the later part of the film, and then there’s these question to what is real and what is in our hero’s head… …
Despite what the title of this film may suggest, Peeping Tom is pretty tame, coming out the same year as Psycho, which clearly eclipsed this film. It is unfortunate because Peeping Tom really is good, it is a disturbing look at voyeurism and a deranged mind. Since it’s made in the 60’s it doesn’t have …
Losing a kid will Jack your jaw. Or at least I imagine it would. This movie here will support that theory. I get these movies from people’s suggestions or lists I find on the internet, and Don’t Look Now comes from one of these lists. I’d say that by today’s standards this would not be …
