For the 14th day of 30 Days of Terror, I picked a film starring one of my all-time favorite actors, actually two. If you’ve only seen the remake of House of Wax, I strongly suggest you search out the original. House of Wax (1953) is special because it has Vincent Price and Carolyn Jones. She…
Thick cheese has always been a valuable resource in the horror genre. For day 8 of 30 Days of Terror, I pondered which film had a strong cheese influence, and The Blob came to mind. Beware of The Blob, it creeps And leaps and glides and slides Across the floor Right through the door And…

Yes, I know The Greatest Show On Earth (1952) is not a horror movie. While it does have thrills and suspense and drama, no it is not horror. The reason I’m talking about this movie today is because February 10, 2019 marks the seventh anniversary of Circus Tarot, and The Greatest Show On Earth is…
