It’s time to delve back into Night Gallery, and since we already covered the pilot episode as well as the (very short) first season, we’re now going to get into the second season. Because season two contains 22 episodes (as opposed to only six in the first season), I’m planning to tackle this project in … More Revisiting Night Gallery: Season Two (Episodes 1-6)
A hit at the 2014 South by Southwest Film Festival, director Leigh Janiak’s impressive debut Honeymoon is, I think, best enjoyed going into it cold, as I did, because I really had no idea what was going on until near the end, which made the film a reliably harrowing experience (I‘m gonna spoil it here, … More Movies: Honeymoon (2014)
I’d seen this film three or four times previously and absolutely adore it, so it was with some surprise that I realized I had never got around to doing a proper review of it. Allow me to correct that tragic oversight forthwith. Starry Eyes premiered at the South by Southwest film festival in 2014. Written … More Movies: Starry Eyes (2014)
1981 was another banner year for horror, and as such, I had my work cut out for me again, having to winnow the list down to five entries from the initial fifteen I picked out. If you do the math, that means there are ten (!!!) honorable mentions, which might be the most so far. … More My Favorite Horror Movies from Every Year Since I Was Born: 1981
Since in my last movie review, I finally got around to seeing a classic horror film from the 1950s that I had previously and shamefully been sleeping on (Night of the Demon from 1957), I decided to continue along the same lines for this installment, taking in another film from the same decade that gets … More Movies: The Night of the Hunter (1955)
Jacques Tourneur is a name that should be well-known to serious horror fans; he’s often hailed in that community for directing a handful of the classic RKO horror pictures of the 1940s: Cat People, I Walked with a Zombie, and The Leopard Man. I had seen those films previously, but for whatever reason, I had … More Movies: Night of the Demon (aka Curse of the Demon) (1957)
Before I embark on the long trek into season two of Thriller with Boris Karloff, I’m going to take that promised side journey into Rod Serling’s Night Gallery, the pilot episode of which I discussed here. You see, just this past weekend while I was out and about, I happened upon a complete box set … More Revisiting Night Gallery: Season One
As you fellow horror nerds probably know, every now and then, you’re really in the mood for some pure, unadulterated, and vibrantly fragrant 1970s cheese. Being in one of those moods myself this week, I decided to toddle on over to Shudder and check out a 70s flick that I had been curious to see … More Movies: The Manitou (1978)
At long last, I’m returning to my exhaustive breakdowns of each episode of the American Thriller series from the early 1960s, hosted by Boris Karloff. This time around, I’m only covering five episodes (instead of the usual six), because there were only five left in season one, so without further ado… Episode 33: “The Terror … More Revisiting Thriller with Boris Karloff: Season 1, Episodes 33-37
I feel as though I’ve covered a great deal of American, British, Italian, Asian, and French horror on this site, but one country’s offerings that I’ve mostly neglected thus far is Spain, a nation that also had something of a horror boom in the 1970s, which was in fact largely kicked off by the classic … More Movies: Tombs of the Blind Dead (1971)
