Mini Review Day 19: Tourist Trap (1979) So I admit that the sole reason I decided to put Tourist Trap on my 31 Days Of Horror list was because I loved the one sheet. It was strange, and certainly attention grabbing, it did its job on selling me. I am actually glad to report that … Continue reading

[Review] Paranormal Activity 4 (2012) by Bede Jermyn
I’m not ashamed to admit that I am a fan of the PARANORMAL ACTIVITY series. While I can understand why some people didn’t like them but for me personally found it a rather effective horror series that successfully tapped into a fear that many people could relate to: the fear of being alone in your … Continue reading
[Bea’s Reviews] Eugenie … Her Journey into Perversion (1970)
“Eugenie … Her Journey into Perversion” (1970) A film maker always takes a huge gamble when it comes to adapting any genre of literature because they are not only sticking their necks out professionally, but they are at the mercy of the fans of the story they are adapting for the big screen. We have … Continue reading

[31 Days Of Horror] Mini Reviews: The Uninvited (1944) and The Raven (1963)

[Review] Lawless (2012) by Bede Jermyn
It always makes me proud when one of my fellow Australians does very well in Hollywood, whether they be in front of or behind the camera. It just shows just how much film studios recognize great talent when they see it. One person in particular is director John Hillcoat, who has definitely come a long … Continue reading

Mini Review Day 9: Dead Snow (2009) Dead Snow has been on my ‘To Watch List’ for quite some time, and what better time to finally tap this one than for 31 Days? I’ve heard nothing but good things about this one, and I can see why! It is a really fun and self-aware horror … Continue reading

[31 Days Of Horror] Mini Reviews: Sweeney Todd (1936) and The Church (1989)
There are several film versions of Sweeney Todd, and up until now I hadn’t seen any of them. I felt compelled to start with director George King’s version, and I am rather glad I did. Continue reading
[31 Days Of Horror] Mini Reviews: Drácula (1931) and Paranoia (1970)
After what seems like years, I finally sat down and watched Drácula (1931), the Spanish version. It was shot at the same time as the Tod Browning film Continue reading
[Bea’s Reviews] Count Dracula (1970)
“Count Dracula” (1970) First, I want to say this- I really have no idea how to explain my feelings about this movie. Horrorotica director extraordinaire Jesus Franco’s take on Dracula starts off as a very respectable take on Stoker’s prose only to descend into what can only be described as whacky madness. I… I guess … Continue reading
[Review Rewind] The Addiction (1995) by Garrett Collins
I don’t think I am hanging too far off a limb by saying that the vampire genre is one that has been done to death (no pun intended). We have seen tortured vampires. We have seen happy vampires. Continue reading
