In elementary school, I always checked out two books from the library. I can still see the cover of these short Universal Monsters versions and the orange background. I would read them repeatedly; my two favorites were Dracula and Frankenstein. These fun old black-and-white treasures that Boris Karloff portrayed are …

Lately, there have been many movies celebrating the 80s horror movement. Most, I have to admit, aren’t that good. However, The Barn is one of those fantastic movies. It reminds me of all those monsters I loved so much. It starts almost immediately with *TRIGGER WARNING* a little kid falls …

In the 80s and 90s, and even into the early 2000s, Jules Bass and Arthur Rankin Jr. were the go-to guys for Christmas specials such as Rudolph and Frosty. However, Rankin Bass had a hidden trick up their sleeve. It often goes unnoticed because it flies under the radar. However, …

This past weekend, I attended the New Jersey Horrorcon and Film Festival. The entire event was almost surreal, with many challenges.

The WNUF Halloween Special has often been ignored or excluded. However, people are missing a fantastic throwback for horror hounds of all ages. If you grew up on horror movies, you would understand. The plot is chaotic by the end, even if it is a found-footage movie. I am not …

The very name Rob Zombie can trigger people. There’s a line in the sand; sometimes, people cross it. I am a firm believer that I should give anything one try. Some movies stick, and some don’t. I am a personal fan of Zombie’s work. As social media evolves, so do …
