Movies: My Dear Killer (aka Mio Caro Assassino) (1972)

Yeah, yeah, I know I’d been on a “new international films” kick with my past few reviews, but for this one, I decided to get back to a genre I’ve been sadly neglecting for quite a while: good old 1970s giallo goodness. Shudder has a decent selection of some more obscure titles, so I chose … More Movies: My Dear Killer (aka Mio Caro Assassino) (1972)

Revisiting Night Gallery: Season 2, Episode 13 – “The Messiah on Mott Street/The Painted Mirror”

As I mentioned in my post about Thriller episodes, I’ve decided to switch to a one-episode-at-a-time format for both my Thriller series and this Night Gallery series, rather than the six-episode chunks I was tackling before. It’s just a lot less daunting and time-consuming overall. Hope y’all don’t mind. So when we last left Night … More Revisiting Night Gallery: Season 2, Episode 13 – “The Messiah on Mott Street/The Painted Mirror”

Movies: Infested (aka Vermines) (2023)

Yet another film I had seen a lot of buzz about before noticing it pop up on Shudder recently was the 2023 creature feature Infested. It’s a French film, initially released under the title Vermines, and is the full-length directorial debut of Sébastien Vaniček. The movie got overwhelmingly positive reviews and was financially successful during … More Movies: Infested (aka Vermines) (2023)

Movies: Exhuma (2024)

I figured it had been a minute since I’d gone delving into Shudder’s newer international fare, so I took a quick look around the internet for some recommendations on the best films currently available on the platform. And pretty universally at the top of many horror sites’ lists was the 2024 South Korean supernatural folk … More Movies: Exhuma (2024)

Books: The God of Endings by Jacqueline Holland

I’ve probably mentioned this a couple of times before, but I’m generally not a massive fan of vampire novels. There have been a few I’ve gotten really into, but vampires as monsters are a bit stale for me, and I don’t make a habit of seeking out fiction featuring bloodsuckers. But something about the cover … More Books: The God of Endings by Jacqueline Holland

Revisiting Thriller with Boris Karloff: Season 2, Episode 7 – “The Last of the Sommervilles”

As you guys who have been around for a while are aware, I’ve been (very) slowly making my way through the 1960s Thriller series, hosted by Boris Karloff. Though up to now I’ve been making posts and videos discussing six episodes at a time (a tradition I started for reasons I can’t even remember now), … More Revisiting Thriller with Boris Karloff: Season 2, Episode 7 – “The Last of the Sommervilles”
