Direct-to-DVD: the gay and homoerotic horror flicks of Alex Dove

Can you handle a gay H.P. Lovecraft adaptation?

A CGI slasher, an 80s throwback, and a horror comedy
Headless Horseman, The Revenant, and Bloody Homecoming. Which was my fave? HEADLESS HORSEMAN (2007) Headless Horseman takes the classic story…and makes it a backwoods slasher. A group of kids is headed for a party. There are some pumpkins in their … Continue reading
