Published: October 21, 2024 01:44
For the last couple of years, I’ve tried to watch and write about Western movies in March. I couldn’t think of a clever title for this theme, but I’ve enjoyed partaking in it. Even if I don’t seem to write as many movies as I’d like to each time. Here’s…

Italian Cinema was dominated by two genres in the 1970s – the Poliziotteschi and the Giallo. The Poliziotteschi was a particular type of crime drama that is noted for its gritty, down-and-dirty take on police work featuring loads of violence and action…

George A. Romero didn’t invent the zombie movie with Night of the Living Dead, but he certainly popularized it and solidified the tropes of the genre. I remember watching it when I was just a kid – maybe 13 or 14 years old – and absolutely loving it. I…

In the first Final Destination, a group of teenagers board a plane for a fun trip to Paris. One of them falls asleep and has a premonition that the plane is gonna explode mid-air. He, a teacher, and a few other friends get the heck off the plane, and sure…

I’m not sure how the Criterion Channel decided to organize their list of Giallos. It certainly isn’t chronological, and I can’t see any sort of thematic relevance. But we have definitely entered into the sleazy section of the list. By their very nature –…

After my glowing review, it should come as no surprise that my pick this week is the 4K UHD release of A Nightmare on Elm Street. I truly do love it and it truly does look fantastic in this new addition. There are some other good horror releases coming out…

I recently upgraded to a 4K UHD Blu-ray player. I was pretty late coming to this upgrade. Honestly, I was pretty late buying a Blu-ray player. For someone who claims to be a physical media enthusiast, I just don’t care that much about video and audio…

The original The Invisible Man (1933) is a classic Universal Horror picture. It was followed by a sequel, The Invisible Man Returns in 1940. The sequel stays pretty close to the original in that it is a serious dramatic film with horror undertones. It is…

Hammer Studios became well known for their horror output. This is mostly due to the way they remade all the classic Universal Monster movies – Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, etc., though they did make a great deal of other films, some of which were not…

‘Salem’s Lot was not the first Stephen King book I ever read (that honor would go to the short story The Langoliers) nor was it the one that turned me into a lifelong fan (that would be Mr. Mercedes) but it was the one where I realized how good of a writer…
