Penny Dreadful S1E6, “What Death Can Join Together”

I apologize on the tardiness of this.  I was out of town for the past week-and-a-half and had no way to watch this until yesterday.  I’ll have my episode 7 recap up tomorrow. Between the flashback episode and being gone for a week, I had almost forgotten about Ethan and Dorian’s night on the town. […]

Review of Eric Cota’s Sudden Chiller Audio Exposure Vol 1 & 2

Everything old has come back to the new. It is inevitable that if it is timeless, then it will return, and sometimes with a vengeance. Freakshows once thought of as a dead performance art now have feature shows on cable television. Rockabilly was thought to have died with Buddy Holly has morphed into various sub-styles of […]

The Hatchetts by George Yesthal

 As the resident Gothbilly at Horror-Writers it is pretty obvious that I have a soft spot for “hillbilly horror”. Hell, that is practically all I write about! No, these are not your father’s hillbillies! They don’t “shoot at some food and come up with bubblin’ crude”.  These are “twisted backwoods, the wrong side of the tracks, from […]

Friday the 13th AND a Full Moon!

This coming Friday is the only Friday the 13th that the year 2014 will see. We had two in 2013 and will have three in 2015. So, what is the big deal about this one? It also happens to land on a full moon. Blammo! Two superstitions on one day. If you believe that one […]

The Vagrants

  So, I know that I sound like a broken record, but I’m really not much of a horror fiction gal. It’s just too much for my sensitive, little imagination to take sometimes. Or worse than that, it isn’t scary or creepy at all. Basically, unless your name is Joe Hill, I am going to […]

Penny Dreadful S1E5, “Closer Than Sisters”

Much like the Caliban-centric “Resurrection”, this episode is very heavy on flashbacks.  And by “very heavy” I mean the only non-flashback moments are Vanessa writing a letter to Mina.  The contents of that letter are what we see on the screen, which means we get the occasional voiceover from Vanessa. After the last couple episodes, […]

Willow Creek

Everyone loves found footage these days, right? No? Are you feeling the found footage fatigue? What if I told you this was a film about Bigfoot and it is written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait? Goldthwait has managed to acquire a solid reputation as an “outside of the box” director with Shakes the Clown, Sleeping […]
