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] The Changeling (1980)
THE CHANGELING (1980) I had been meaning to see this film for quite some time, and when I needed another 31 Days replacement, a friend brought it up and I thought I might as well finally watch this. This film turned out to be one of the genuinely creepy films that I have ever seen. … Continue reading
Book Review – Dropping Fear by Mike Catalano
So way back over a year ago, we had a little podcast. An interview with then new author Mike Catalano on his debut Dropping Fear. Mike is a good friend; we met through Arrow In The Head when he was a news editor. I was very excited to chat to him about his book, I … Continue reading
[31 Days Of Horror] Mini Review – Graveyard Shift (1990)
GRAVEYARD SHIFT (1990) So I needed to find a replacement for Suicide Club since my DVD was faulty. I decided I would finally check out Graveyard Shift, the film that Eric Walkuski and Ammon Gilbert have been going on about since I met them. Did it live up to those oh so high expectations?

[31 Days Of Horror] Mini Review – Pieces (1982)
PIECES (1982) Grindhouse/exploitation slasher tries to do giallo, which is one way to describe Pieces. The film I discovered after watching Going To Pieces: The Rise And Fall Of The Slasher Film is a neat little gem from that era. It isn’t perfect by any means but it is a solid watch. It is nasty; … Continue reading
[31 Days Of Horror] Saturday The 14th (1981)
SATURDAY THE 14TH (1981) Saturday The 14th is a strange little film, it isn’t some unofficial Friday The 13th sequel, nor is it a slasher rip off. This film is its own thing, think The Monster Squad via the way of Troll 2. In short this film is fun, cheesy, campy and very dated. It … Continue reading
[31 Days Of Horror] Mini Review: The Bird With The Crystal Plumage (1970)
THE BIRD WITH THE CRYSTAL PLUMAGE (1970) Dario Argento’s first solo directorial effort The Bird With The Crystal Plumage is an absolutely fantastic film. If you have seen his other earlier works from the 70’s and 80’s you’ll have a good idea of what to expect. The film is a classic ‘giallo’, a mystery/thriller/horror that … Continue reading
[31 Days Of Horror] Psycho 2 (1983)
PSYCHO 2 (1983) What’s one of the most typical things that happen to a beloved and successful film? Why a sequel, prequel or remake of course! One that should never have been thought up to do that to was Psycho; Hitchcock’s masterpiece was well a masterpiece! You don’t dare touch that (unless you feel whacked … Continue reading
