The House of the Devil – review
THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL It is an interesting trend in horror these days, the pull away from modernism and the move towards nostalgia. It is as if the '80s and '70s are hallowed horror ground where all the classic horror films were made. While I can appreciate a move towards realism and better film-making,… Continue reading The House of the Devil – review
ANTICHRIST – review
ANTICHRIST Well, if you can say anything about ANTICHRIST it is that it earns every ounce of its controversy. A bold, challenging, nihilistic, and hateful little thing, this is the sort of movie that movie elitists always claim they want but rarely embrace.

The Opening Night Jitters – a Halloween story
The Opening Night Jitters Billy put the last body in place and let out a long breath. It was done. At least his part in it. Beyond the zombies and the skeletons wasn’t his problem, that was Mark’s job, and if Mark was still making eyes at Dani, well, that sir, wasn’t his problem, now… Continue reading The Opening Night Jitters – a Halloween story
of Shadow, Of Light
When I was a kid, I did art all the time. I loved it. I dunno that I would say I was good at it, necessarily, but I loved it. It wasn't until I was a teenager that I started to do anything with writing and, when I was late in my teens I gave… Continue reading of Shadow, Of Light
