PopHorror Let's Get Scared

The Hornet’s Disciple and The Scars She Left hasn’t been released yet but already is the subject of controversy. The film found itself in violation of IndieGoGo’s new guidelines AFTER its campaign was successfully funded. IndieGoGo withheld the funds it had collected from backer for 2 months, eventually refunding the …

I live and breathe indie horror. There’s just something so creatively raw and beautiful about it that makes my icy, black heart beat just a little bit faster. That’s why I enjoy supporting the genre in any way I can. I especially love horror anthologies. What’s better than getting to …

Night of the Living Dead (1968) doesn’t necessarily give audiences what they WANT, but it sure as hell gives them what they NEED. The average American filmgoer is a sucker for happy endings. They want the hero or heroine to struggle against adversity, or overcome societal ills like racism, or, …

While called in to inspect the mysterious bleeding tears of The Virgin Mary statue within an Irish Magdalene Laundry for “insane and fallen” women, two priests (Lalor Roddy and Ciaran …

I have a confession: Friday the 13th is my jam. I’ve loved it since I was a kid growing up in the 80’s and discovered the franchise at an all-too-young age. I can’t even begin to tell you how stoked I am that my favorite unofficial holiday is here! I also …
