Don’t you hate when you’re reading a food blog and you’re all hangry and feeling some kinda way, and you have to scroll down like 80 times in order to get to the goddamn recipe? Yeah, me too. Here’s a list of albums I liked this year. I deem them “the best,” but really they’re…
Back in 2012, I compiled a ranking of all the Halloween films minus the Rob Zombie installments. With Michael Myers now slashing up the box office once again, I thought it’d be a great time to reconsider the list and re-rank the films with a fresh pair of eyeballs. I have since rewatched the entire…
Deciding to recon almost an entire franchise is a risky move, but that’s exactly what Blumhouse Productions did when it greenlit a brand new installment of a 40 year old series: Halloween. The stars seemed to align for Blumhouse: an able director was on board (Stronger‘s David Gordon Green) and helping Green with the script…
[Ed. Note – Check out this guest post by Andrew Noles from Your Best Halloween Ever! Every Tuesday is BOOzeday on his site, but check it out for Halloween crafts, food items, playlists, and more.] Ah, the margarita. If I’m being honest, margaritas aren’t usually my drink of choice (tequila and I have never gotten along),…
October is the best time of year. This isn’t up for discussion; it just is. Fall is a way of life that ushers in Halloween, the cult of pumpkin, cooler temps and best of all, horror everything. Between theatrical releases, streaming sites and VOD, there’s an ungodly amount of blood and terror to inflict upon your…
In 1978, John Carpenter’s Halloween changed of face of horror forever, slashing box office records with its low-budget approach and white-masked boogeyman. Thanks to a story written by Carpenter and Debra Hill, horror was relocated from its usual cemetery and haunted house-type settings to our very own suburban doorsteps as Michael Myers, a recently escaped…
This year horror welcomes back a certain white-masked killer and also ushers in the remake of a bewitching Dario Argento classic. (What a time to be alive.) We’re on the horizon of what could be a very dynamic year for the genre. Sure, Halloween and Suspiria are making waves—and headlines—but smaller films like Hereditary and…
Ten years later: Victor Crowley lives, and the fourth film in the Hatchet series, aptly titled Victor Crowley, just so happens to be the best one. Everything about it works, from its blood splattering deaths and dismembered limbs, to its fast-paced, campy tone. It may also be the funniest. Goddammit, Hatchet fans, you’re in for a treat.…
The Wolf Man. The Howling. Ginger Snaps. Dog Soldiers. In terms of werewolf horror, there are certainly some great flicks to choose from. But a recent rewatch of An American Werewolf in London has once again blown my mind and I’ve got to say: it’s bar none the best werewolf movie. Ever. The movie follows two…
After a tragic car accident leaves them mourning the loss of their son, Anne (Barbara Crampton) and Paul (Andrew Sensenig) move to a new home in rural New England to start anew and seek some closure. However, before they can flee screaming “Helllllll no!” at the top of their lungs, the weirdness begins. Frames fall…
