Movie Reviews

Hello, all! Johnny Macabre here, sitting down to post my first review as a new writer on one of my favorite horror news sites. And I thought, what with the holidays right around the corner, I would start with a personal Macabre Christmas tradition: David Steiman’s 2005 horror comedy, Santa’s …

The Blood in the Snow Horror Film Festival is one of my favorite festivals of the year. After covering it last year, I got to review some of the best shorts and features I’ve ever seen. Now I’m here to say that the same can be said for BITS 2018. …
