Comic Books for Horror Lovers: DCeased
Spine-Chilling Spotlight
It’s no secret that I love horror in any and all forms. While watching films takes up a lot of my free time, I do find myself being somewhat successful in keeping up with some of my other hobbies. One of those other, more enjoyable, ones is collecting and reading comics. There are tons of horror-themed comic books to choose from these days, but it’s always intriguing to me when one of the “big two” gets in on the action. [...]
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.

That Would be Just Fine
Darkman Review
It never ceases to amaze me how many great films have slipped right under my radar. Especially films made by some of my favorite directors. Thanks to the ever-growing library of films distributed by Shout! Factory, I finally get a chance to not only see some of those films, but to also see them in their best presentations to date.
Darkman is one of the most overall entertaining films I’ve seen in a good while. It has something for everyone [...]
A Nasty Piece of Work
Sparks Review
I’ve been a fan of superheros since before I was a fan of horror. I still have all of my action figures from when I was younger and still have a huge collection of comics, as well. Although Todd Burrows and Christopher Folino’s Sparks is a superhero film, it still has certain elements that any horror fan can appreciate.
Sparks is full of torture, murder, and revenge, which are all things we see in horror films on a daily basis. [...]
