If you’re on this site, you loved monsters as a kid. Probably even had a “Monster In My Pocket” or two. And during those days, you probably held that familiar Nintendo controller in your hand and threw down on some Zelda, Mario, or Metroid. But, as a monster lover, you inevitably found yourself playing one […]
Dusty takes a look at how he fell in love with Twin Peaks
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 […]
Finally! Zombies to hold us over until more zombies arrive! I mean, I guess you could always watch Night of the Living Dead during the summer or something, but that probably doesn’t happen in most households. It’s okay. We can still be friends. As long as you don’t love Survival of the Dead. Then […]
Through our sister – the great LC Fremont – we connected with Layne LaVanway. Layne does weekly reviews of Constantine on his YouTube channel. Before tonight’s episode, why don’t you check out his thoughts on last week’s episode. You can find Layne on Twitter: @laynelavanway
Now we’re cooking. The vampire menace is starting to make itself known. They congregate like packs of zombies, sniffing the air for fresh blood. And, even though their stingers aren’t strong enough to break through glass, their elbows are very much up to the task. The early vampires – like Crazy Lawyer Vampire – are […]
Welcome back to the world of The Strain. Here you will find exterminators who are wizards with charcoal and probably should have gone into architecture, boyfriends schooled in all manner of jackassery, and patient cabbies who act as getaway drivers and listen to the ramblings of out-of-breath old men (I assume he heard about the […]
I hate to keep harping on the same points over and over again, but they give me no choice. Outside of Abraham Setrakian, there are no other characters with decent stories. This show drags when it is driven by character drama. I liked seeing Setrakian’s history with The Master and Eichorst, but the rest of […]
Last week I talked about how getting away from character-centric drama was the key for this show. Distract the audience with vampires so we don’t see just how poorly written this show is. “Gone Smooth” finally did that, and “It’s Not For Everyone” continued down that path. That’s not to say there weren’t problems with […]
After an underwhelming start to the series, I was hoping that this second episode might renew my excitement for the show. The survivors were being released. With The Master being transported across the river by the unaware (and always angry) Gus, the apocalypse would be starting. In addition to that, Vasiliy Fet (my favorite character […]
