Welcome back to the HW Mailbag. Only one question this week, but it’s a good one. Current debate that’s going on at work…What’s scarier, ghosts/paranormal or slashers/killers and why? Your thoughts? – @kcguru23 @kcguru23 works at a hotel and they have these debates during slow moments. I wouldn’t mind working in a place like that. […]
Synopsis: In an attempt to shore up their overnight security, a mall unveils their new plan: metal security doors that will close at night. Also, three patrolling robots. They swear the robots are non-lethal, but that doesn’t explain their onboard head-exploding lasers. Some teens decide to have an after-hours party in a furniture store. Lightning […]
As I mentioned in the not-so-distant past, I am a relatively recent horror convert. Because of this, I have fairly sizable holes in my viewing history. I haven’t seen a lot of movies that a lot of people hold up as classics. In a perfect world I would have found all sorts of time to […]
Boo! John Carpenter Returns to Halloween Franchise! In case you missed it, Blumhouse has announced that they have brought John Carpenter back into the Halloween franchise. He will be producing the next installment in the series, set to release in October 2017. I do not like this. As you all well know, Carpenter is the man […]
In case you missed it, Blumhouse has announced that they have brought John Carpenter back to the Halloween franchise. He will be producing the next installment in the series, set to release in October 2017. I love this. As you all well know, Carpenter is the man responsible for first bringing Michael Myers into our […]
Synopsis: Authorities find over 800 VHS tapes made by an elusive killer in and around Poughkeepsie, New York. We the viewer – most of whom are absolutely not police or FBI agents – get to watch some of these and see what terrible things this killer did. Awful things. Twisted things. Why did they let […]
Welcome to another exciting installment of the Horror Writers mailbag! Thanks for the questions. Did you see the Rec saga? – @NicoLasaigues I have seen the first three, and I really enjoyed all of them. Like a true American, I saw Quarantine first (USA! USA!), so I think that colored my judgment of the first […]
Synopsis: A period piece that follows Elizabeth Bennet – the second of five sisters – through her unwanted courtship. You could almost say that Elizabeth Bennet and something called “Mr. Darcy” fooled around and fell in love. Also, there are zombies. So many zombies. My thoughts: I have never read Pride & Prejudice. I have […]
Welcome to the Horror Writers mailbag! I’m hoping to make this a weekly column, but it all depends on how many questions I get. I didn’t get many for this edition, so I was forced to make up some questions. Please don’t make me do that again. It’s pretty sad. If you have questions you’d […]
Synopsis: A deaf, mute female author lives alone in a fairly secluded house in the woods. A man in a creepy mask shows up, kills her neighbor and terrorizes her. My thoughts: This seems like a pretty standard home invasion movie, but I gave it a shot because it was directed by Mike Flanagan. I […]
