Maybe you are a twisted individual like myself (pleased to meet you) and you not only watched The Human Centipede (First Sequence), but you watched it more than once. And you liked it. Truly, few movie quotes are as […]

Hey kids, this time we are going to travel back to 1982 and 1983 and look at what may be the best horror movies to come out of those two years. Again, these are not, definitively, the best movies of 82 & 83; they’re just my personal favorites. I present to you in, no particular […]

An Interview With Ed Guinn
Ed Guinn, everyone’s favorite cattle truck driver, was kind enough to answer some questions for Lisa. I think you will find him to be exceptionally funny and exactly the kind of guy you want to hang out with. Ed can be seen in Shawn Ewert’s upcoming film Sacrament, premiering June 7, 2014 at The […]

There’s nothing quite like hearing quotes from “Intimations of Immortality from Recollections of Early Childhood” while watching a child find his dead dog, then have his mother cough up blood all over him. Frankenstein’s devastating childhood gives us a window into why he loves the flowery language of […]
Were the 80’s the best decade for horror movies or am I just biased because that’s what I grew up on? Perhaps a little bit of both? Either way, I have taken a look back at the movies that this totally tubular decade brought us and picked out my personal favorites. These are listed in […]
Henry is a delightful young man who’s positivity and humor is contagious. I really had such an enjoyable time speaking on the phone with him.

Danger Word: A Short Film
Director: Luchina Fisher Writers: Tananarive Due and Steven Barnes Before I get started, I’d like to point out that Steven Barnes has writing credits for The Twilight Zone, The Real Ghostbusters, The Outer Limits, Stargate SG-1, Baywatch and Andromeda.

Godzilla
Monster movies are tricky in that the titular star is often a minor character, behind those that it affects. He is a plot point. A puzzle to be solved. A villain to be conquered. They are often the center of the film, but they are unable to carry it. That duty in Godzilla falls on […]
