PopHorror Let's Get Scared

There is something chilling about the subtle creaks and moans of an old house… noises that are typically shrugged off with some vague explanation, but unnerving nonetheless. On the other hand, there’s something near terrifying about a loud, startling noise, the type of sound that invokes feelings of unease, causing …

Nowadays, it seems like everyone is ultra-sensitive and squeamish — including many horror fans! For those who occasionally wish to kick it old school and see an unapologetically sleazy (and just plain weird) horror flick, Machine Gun Baby may be just what the abortion doctor ordered! That’s right: A major theme …

I love documentaries! Some of the best ones I’ve seen this year are For the Love of the Boogeyman: 40 Years of Halloween, The Bill Murray Stories, Wolfman’s Got Nards, and now The Dollhouse. I got the chance to watch The Dollhouse as coverage for the 2018 Screamfest Film Festival. When …

Tales From The Grave is a horror anthology web series that features a new director for each story. The latest episode, Hallowed Be Thy Name, premiered this week. This time, it was Jonathan Patrick Hughes’ ((S)aint Nick 2016) turn behind the camera. I will tell you in all honesty, I haven’t watched …

As we wrap up our coverage of the 2018 Brooklyn Horror Film Festival, I had an opportunity to watch the Head Trip Block Shorts for review. The block is perfectly described on the BHFF site as: At its boldest, horror doesn’t play by any rules. As you’ll see in these unclassifiable shorts, …
