For day 12 of 30 Days of Terror, I figured I’d continue on with George A. Romero, and talk about Diary of the Dead since I enjoyed Land of the Dead a lot more than I expected. I was hoping that Diary of the Dead (2007) was a continuation of Land of the Dead because…
Day 11 of 30 Days of Terror brings Zombies from George A. Romero. While they are not my favorite, I understand that they are important, bringing a strong survival aspect to the horror genre…though, isn’t all horror about surviving and being mostly physically and mentally intact at the end? Zombies…I’m still not sure what I…
I’m trying to understand why zombies have flooded the horror genre, so I figured I’d watch Dawn of the Dead (2004). It’s the remake of the movie of the same name from 1978, the second in George A. Romeo’s zombie franchise. Even after seeing this, I’m still not sure about them. The fact that this…
Dark Floors (2008) has been on my watch list for a while, and now that I’ve finally seen it, I’m left feeling empty or at least not full. I saw the trailer for it, and that’s how it came to be on my watch list. I thought it was going to be terrifying, but they…
For the last day of 30 Days of Terror, I didn’t have to think too long to know which film I wanted to tell you about. Sugar Hill (1974) is one of those amazing B-Movies produced by American International Pictures; it also falls into the Blaxploitation category, which is a term that annoys me, but…
Today, I thought a double feature would be fun for the 13th of 30 Days of Terror, but which two films? Well, that’s easy, the first two installments of the Gates of Hell Trilogy. I know few people who’ve heard of these films. The grouping of films in the Gates of Hell Trilogy is on…
I can’t think of many aspects of the horror genre that I don’t love (well, except Zombies), and creepy crawlies are a perfect way to celebrate the 7th day of 30 Days of Terror. Empire of the Ants is one of my favorites, featuring out of control insects, and why I chose it for today….
It seems that everything I’ve read in the last six months has been zombies in one shape or another. While Turning Grace (The Turning Series Book 1) does bring a slightly different take, I was still hungry when I finished reading it. The pacing was very slow, with much of the story filled with teenage…
