Black Friday- Jeffery X Martin

First off, deepest apologies to Mr.Martin for taking so long to get this review up. Second, this was a tremendous read. The world building is some of the best I’ve read in quite some time. Each story adds more mystery and intensity to Elder’s Keep that allows it to grow into its own character. It […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E2 review: “The Kindred”

A New Sheriff And Monster Are In Town (and don’t mess with her/him) While Sleepy Hollow settles into its procedural formula of consulting old texts for clues, flash backs and Abbie telling Ichabod something witty/funny about this wacky modern world, the show also surprises us with nice tidbits like prophetic nightmares, a new monster and the […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E1 review “This is War”

Welcome Back, Baby: Sneaky, Clever, Fun, Familiar. Have you missed hearing a sexy male voice intone “Leftenant” in a British accent? Lament no more. Sleepy Hollow is back. It’s a little slicker (more makeup and some cool SFX), but the writing is still sharp and the outrageous skew on history is still galloping along. I […]

SXTAPE

I’m pretty tired of found footage but every now and then a movie will come out and completely blow away any and all preconceived notions I have of these types of films. SXTAPE was not that film. There is so much potential with this concept that it was frustrating to watch SXTAPE fail again and […]

The Strain S1E11, “The Third Rail”

The season is winding down.  While the show has gotten better, it’s still maddeningly inconsistent.  There are some great scenes – and there have even been some truly great episodes – but there are too many moments of drama driven by the stupidity of the main characters.  This episode had a little bit of each […]

Thanatomorphose and Contracted. A Body-Horror 2 for 1

Well, well, well. I have returned from my long-standing self imposed sentence, dancing in and out of consciousness staring at strings of code and cursing the day that X-Pages became a thing. For those who are unfamiliar with me, I started this website in February of 2013 and watched it grow in to a community […]

The Artist, by Kat Morris

By Kat Morris   What is it about washing blood off of things that makes one turn suddenly introspective? Is it the feel of the blood? Sticky, clinging, suffocating, grasping at fibers, desperate to remind you that it was once moving and vital and not running headlong down a drain. The rushing water?  Clear, cold, […]

A Lesson In Style…or, Me No Not Like Mistakes (Bloody, gore, bloody, gore, blood)

Hello again all my members of the Renfield’s Grave Robber Union! It is good to be back in written form again. I haven’t been posting my articles much since I’ve been focusing on my Re-Collection section, finishing other work, and getting ready for Shriekfest Film Festival where my feature screenplay “LaLaurie” is a finalist. (And […]
