The Purge: Anarchy review

They say that pictures are worth a thousand words, well if that is true then this picture sums up all of my feelings for this movie sequel.     I purged harder in the bathroom this morning.   “Do you feel cleansed?” I do now… Renfield Rasputin writes horror and is sick of this shit. […]

Renfield’s Re-Collections part 7 (Revenge of the Gothbilly)

Well it looks like I have to watch what I say and do because halfway around the world someone will get pissed and send me a cease and desist note, (not to mention that they will tattle to the social media giant that they found you on – insert spooky wiggling fingers here). I won’t go into […]

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Heaven (Or, How I Made Peace with the Paranormal and Stigmatized Zealots and Cynics in the Process) by Corey Taylor

Many people are familiar with Corey Taylor as the masked lead singer in Slipknot, or of the Generation Y’s metal answer to the Cure, Stone Sour.  But he is also a writer with a unique sense of humor and the meaty stories that fill the appetite of any hungry reader. Believe me, they are all […]

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 […]
