Scare Package Review
No Halloween ‘season’ or month-long marathon is complete without at least one anthology film, right? Truth be told, this isn’t actually the first one I’ve watched this month. It is, however, the first that I am discussing here with you, so without further ado, let’s discuss Scare Package. The Plot Chad has hired a new employee for Rad Chad’s Horror Emporium. As part of his training, Chad recounts various horrifying tales, to get his new, best employee ready for the job! My Thoughts Following a similar formula to most, if not all, anthology films, Scare Package presents the audience with … Read More

Holiday Hell Review
I’m not sure I’d ever see a full night of peaceful sleep again if I were to let this holiday season come and go without reviewing at least one Christmas-themed horror flick. Thankfully, I put in an order of some new movies recently that arrived just in time. Thus, tonight’s viewing pleasure went to the 2019 anthology film, Holiday Hell. The Plot Amelia is looking for the perfect gift for her sister and must endure four horrifying tales from the friendly shopkeeper, each set during the holiday season. My Thoughts There are way more Christmas-related horror movies out there than … Read More

10/31 Part II Review
For diehard fans, every day is a good day to watch a horror flick. That doesn’t make the month of October any less special, however.

One that I have been looking forward to for quite some time is the anthology film, 10/31 Part II. The Plot Malvolia, The Queen of Screams is back to present her loyal fans yet another Halloween Monster … Read More
I Think We Should Give This a Try
Hi-Death Review
My most recent trip to the movie theater was to watch a new horror anthology film. I wanted to keep this train rolling, so I could think of no better way to do so than with yet another film showing off some of the genre’s best indie talents. I am referring to 2018’s anthology, Hi-Death. The Plot Two friends decide to take a “Death Tour” while visiting beautiful Hollywood, California. They are taken on an increasingly horrifying journey, created by some of the best independent directors today. My Thoughts This follow-up to 2013’s Hi-8 (Horror Independent 8) presents five new … Read More

Terror 5 Review
Having seen two new horror anthologies in the same amount of days, I might be tempted to say that their popularity is on the rise once again. While this format has always been a favorite of mine, they aren’t always executed successfully. Continue reading to see whether or not Sebastian Rotstein and Federico Rotstein were able to pull out all the stops with their film, Terror 5. The Plot Terror is all around on one long night in Buenos Aries. Zombies are walking the streets, while a plan to swap girlfriends goes horribly wrong for two friends, a group of … Read More
Comic Books for Horror Lovers: Crypt of Shadows
Spine-Chilling Spotlight
When you think of horror in comics, Marvel may not be the first publisher that comes to mind. Depending on your general knowledge of comic books, you may just automatically think of the old EC Comics titles like The Vault of Horror and Tales From the Crypt. You wouldn’t be wrong to think of such standout titles. After all, this is where the ever-adored Crypt-Keeper was first introduced. Horror History EC, or Entertaining Comics, wasn’t the only giant in the horror game, however. The 1950’s was a huge time for comic book publishers and while Marvel Comics, then known as … Read More
