Talking with the guys who give you Night Terrors…and facials
I recently blogged about a horror DVD impulse buy I made simply because there was a killer Santa on the cover. Night Terrors is a horror anthology that pays homage to old school direct-to-video indies. I know. Everyone with an … Continue reading
Theater geek outcasts face some serious Drac drama
Richard Griffin’s indie flix celebrate the sex, gore, and campy goodness of 70s and 80s horror, exploitation, and grindhouse movies (I blog about most of them here) so I’m always psyched when a new one comes around. This time he … Continue reading
Quick looks at modern horror time killers part 9
This trio of films has its flaws, but I would definitely not pass up any of them. Each one has its own very distinct personality for sure. HELLBENDERS (2012) Hellbenders is a pretty fun premise—a bunch of deadbeat messes join … Continue reading

A dog is man’s best friend…especially when man is man’s worst enemy
I was at a reading in New York City with several of my fellow Bold Strokes Books authors, and after David Swatling read an excerpt from his book (like a master storyteller) about a dog finding a human head in … Continue reading

Quick looks at modern horror part 6
THE POSSESSION OF MICHAEL KING (2014) The Possession of Michael King is definitely out to grab the Paranormal Activity and The Last Exorcism crowd—but it’s kind of better than both. It’s much darker and more sadistic. And while it’s sort … Continue reading

The witch flick I’ve been waiting for!
2013 Spanish film Witching and Bitching is the first witch horror flick that gives me more than I could hope for. This is like Hocus Pocus and The Witches all rolled into one—for adults! It’s the movie The Lords of … Continue reading
The Six Million Dollar Man takes on six million killer fish
More than a rip-off of Piranha, the 1979 flick Killer Fish is almost more a rip-off of The Deep, only without one of few really bad Donna Summer disco songs as a theme. But don’t worry. There’s plenty of bad … Continue reading

Thanks to Boys, Bears & Scares, I’ve become familiar with a whole lot of fellow gay horror authors who grew up on 1980s slasher movies as I did. Just like me, these guys have taken their love of scary movies…and … Continue reading
