Slaughtered Innocence (2012)

Anyone who is a fan of the movie Old School starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn & Will Ferrell probably remembers the wedding scene with 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' playing.  If you're like my friends and I, you associate that song with the movie - or at least you did until you watched Slaughtered Innocence by Tyler Hosley.  Now, I can't give away any spoilers but when you watch this you'll know what I'm talking about and you won't ever listen to that song the same way again.

I've watched all of Tyler's shorts, and each one just keeps getting better and better.  This is my favorite one yet.  I love every twisted minute of it.  This is hard to review because I can't give away anything because you need to see it for yourself.  It's only 7+ minutes long, but every single minute is used so effectively, with each of them creating a memorable scene.  All I'll reveal is the awesome use of 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' and the greatest phone call ever made to a partner.  Trust me, every minute of this will stick in your mind.

Now as I can't give away anything that happens, it doesn't mean to say I can't tell you other reasons why it's awesome.  As stated before, the use of music throughout this is so effective that dialogue isn't even needed, but when the dialogue is used it's memorable.  I also loved the use of the shaky cam, as it gave it a disjointed feel that really worked.  It's kinda like if someone filmed a documentary in one of your darkest nightmares.  The phone call that I mentioned is also really funny, albeit in the darkest of ways.  It's black comedy and not for everyone, but those of you who read this blog will get a kick out of it.  That's not saying it's a comedy though, because there's some genuinely creepy horror here.  All of Tyler's shorts have interesting characters and the dude has a real knack for writing horror.  Each short keeps getting better, I know for a fact from talking to him how good his ideas are and I look forward to every future project he does.  So, sit back, leave all morals at the door and watch this awesome short - and the rest of his shorts.  I also recommend Junkie.  Watch them all though and you'll see the progression of a young filmmaker with skills and ideas so twisted they make a car wreck look like a calm, spring boat ride.  Enjoy.

The Woman In Black (1989)

Due to the release of the 2012 remake, I felt it worthy to check out the original before the remake - and I'm so glad I did.  This was a really good slow burner, with a dreary atmosphere throughout and when the jump moments arrived, they really had an effect.

The movie focuses on a lawyer, Arthur Kidd, who's just recently started a family.  The newborn baby is interfering with his work life so he's given a chance at getting back into the regards of his boss by handling the minor details for a recently deceased video.  He's sent away to a coastal village for a week to get her affairs in order - but what he uncovers is far more grim than the death of an old woman and he is haunted by a mysterious woman in black as a sinister tale unravels.

The mystery aspect of this movie is engrossing enough to keep it interesting throughout.  If anything you're going to watch on to find out some answers.  However, the addition of the extremely creeper woman in black really provides some creepy moments.  She doesn't speak, she doesn't even move that much, but she looks twisted.  So a strength of the movie is the story and the pay offs from the slow burn.  Another great thing about it is the atmosphere throughout, enhanced by the countryside and seaside location.  Our lead actor does a great job here to, with a descent into paranoia and madness.  There's also aspects of the 'whole village knows something they're not telling you.'

Good or bad as the remake may be, at least it's made people aware of the original and I really hope those who don't like the remake give the original a chance because it really is a gem.  It's engrossing throughout, eerie, creepy, chilling and smart.  Anyone who dismisses horror movies as trash needs to be forced to watch this, because it's a smart horror film and more importantly, it's entertaining.  We'll here this being called a 'supernatural thriller/drama' but trust me, it's ghostly horror at its finest.

Silent Night (2011)

Wow.  This was a blast.  It really was a,lot of fun for a horror fan such as myself in it's brief 3 minutes.  There's not much to say other than watch it.  It only takes 3 minutes of your time and after it's finished it leaves you wanting more.  The atmosphere is amazing, the score is amazing, the make up kicks ass and it really takes the jolliness out of Christmas - unless you get you jollies out of death, which being a horror fan, I do obviously.

I don't know much about the director David Felber, but thanks to Twitter (where I discovered this) then I intend to find out more.  This is yet another great short that deserves some recognition, and I recommend you check it out asap.  Also, check out the other shorts on my blog and show some support to up and coming horror filmmakers.

Humanoids From The Deep (1980)

Creature features are an essential part of horror history.  Throughout the years, creature features have offered us a wide array of 'creatures' that have entertained us for decades, from Gojira to the Creature From the Black Lagoon, some creatures have become landmarks in the history of cinema, and have influenced other creature features throughout the years, whether it is cheap knock offs or new creations.  The 80's was a great era for cheese, and especially in the creature feature sub genre.  In 1980, Humanoids From The Deep, got the decade off to a fun start, and here's why...

This movie is about a group of fish-like, frog-like, creatures causing havoc in a small fishing town.  Not only do they have a thirst for violence, but they're quite horny.  So, to quench their thirst they go on a spree of gory murder, rape and resulting impregnation of scantily clad teenage girls in their 30's.

Sounds tasteless, right?  Well, it isn't exactly tasteful.  If you're going to watch a movie called Humanoids From The Deep then don't go into it expecting standards, morals and a taste.  It's a fun-filled violent thrill ride.  It has a great atmosphere throughout, awesome men-in-rubber-suit monsters, great FX and plenty of boobs and blood to keep everyone happy.  This is an 80's horror gem at it's best.  Just one of many.  Pick it up and have fun.

Lord of Illusions (1995)

This was the last movie Clive Barker directed, which is unfortunate because the world needs all the Clive Barker it can get.  As a writer, he stands out for his originality and ability to write pure horror.  As a director, he's able to convey that on the screen.  For me, his concepts are ingenious.  Take Hellraiser for example.  Or Midnight Meat Train, which you could be forgiven for thinking it is merely what it appears to be.  Clive Barker is a treasure in the world of horror, and I for one am grateful for his existence.

Lord of Illusions is about a detective who stumbles across more than he bargained for while on a run of the mill, routine case, and is drawn into a Los Angeles underbelly of magic, mystic, sects and murder.  He discovers a side of magic much more sinister than mere illusions, and will soon find something even more evil is on its way.  The story begins with a magician named Nix being buried deep underground by his best apprentice but this isn't truly the end, is it?  It's an ambitious story, full of imagination, told violently and bloodily as a nightmare reality continue to unfold through a series of twists and turns.

Horror is often a genre which is only considered to be a work of genius by horror fans.  It's not often a horror movie is considered a genius work of art in the general population.  It's a genre that has more assumptions made about it than any other genre, and people do not consider how wide the spectrum of horror truly is.  Lord of Illusions is a movie I would recommend you show to anyone who ever dismisses horror as 'trash.'  It's a detective story, with elements of film noir as much as a horror film, and like any good detective story, you never know what to expect.  What makes it better than other detective stories is that it's much more fantastical, imaginative and interesting.  It's also a very well made film, which is impressive in it's own right as Barker is more of a writer and painter than he is a film director.

The scenery in this film is often bright and beautiful, which is a significant element due to the darkness of the content.  It really does give you a feel of  'what goes on beneath the surface?'   Furthermore, the acting is great and each cast member does their job selling their character to keep us engrossed in the story.  Scott Bakula is excellent as the lead Harry D'Amour, who for much of the film is carrying it along on his own.  Daniel Von Bargen is sinister as the evil Nix and the rest of the supporting cast as just as convincing in their roles.  If you like detective stories, then there's a great one here for you to wrap your head around, if you want horrifying images and gore then there's plenty of that and if you want an imaginative movie that stands out from the rest then I urge you to pick this one up.  If like me, all of these combined sounds perfect for you then watch it now and I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

From what I've heard this movie gets better with a revisit, so there's no telling how much I'll love it when I watch it again.  First time was a special experience.  It really has left an impression.

Fathers Day (2011)

You know how when people say, ''don't watch this if you're easily offended.''  Well, in regards to Troma movies this applies more than ever.  Even if you aren't easily offended, Troma movies might still offend you, whether it be the content within them or just the cheap, nasty presentation of their movies that some may call an insult to the art of film making.  Or maybe you're like me - SICK.  For those who love Troma, it's because we know not to take their movies seriously and not only accept them for the trashy fun that they are - we adore them for it.  Fathers Day is another twisted, fun addition to the Troma family.

The premise of the movie is a simple hunt 'em down revenge story.  A killer is on the loose and it's up to a wannabe Snake Plissken, a priest and a street hustler to stop the vicious murderer.  What ensures on this epic adventure is some of the most vomit inducing funny experiences put to celluloid.

So, the 'good' points?  Well, I don't condone real life necrophilia, evisceration and cannibalism - but when you get it all within the first minute a movie then you definitely have my interests.  It doesn't matter how horrible it's going to get, you just need to keep watching to see how far it goes.  And, you know... it's fun.  So within the first few seconds you know it's going to be disgusting, but anyone who's watched Troma movies in the past knows to expect OTT, politically incorrect, taboo behaviour.  If you're a viewer stumbling upon some of their catalogue for the first time without knowing what to expect, and you have an uneasy tolerance for the most degrading of subject matter then I don't envy you.  Well, maybe I do a little...  OK, so violence is aplenty, what else is good?  It's very Grindhouse in style, which for me, is one of the coolest forms of film to look at.  Personally, grindhouse looking movies have a much cooler look than the highest budget Hollywood blockbusters.  Fathers Day is as grindhouse as it comes in regards to modern movies.  It looks freakin' sweet.  Another great thing about Troma movies, and this one in particular, is how witty they are.  They don't set out to be taken seriously, but the comedy is genuinely funny.  It's not that 'so bad it's good' type of comedy here either.  Sure, it's goofy, but it takes a genius to write stupid movies without making them seem, well... plain stupid.  Smart stupidity is what I'm getting at.  The FX are also 100% here.  For a movie like this, you want as little CGI as possible.

The bad points?  Well, all the good points I listed are probably things that others will hate about it.  Not many will watch this through my eyes as a well made, low budget, highly ambitious masterpiece.  However, those of you I know read my posts will probably enjoy it.  If you've seen Troma movies before you know what you're getting yourself into.  Fathers Day won't be regarded in the same esteem as cinematic classics such as Toxic Avenger and Class of Nuke 'Em High, but it is just as much fun.  Give it a watch if you're wonderfully warped.

Dawn of the Mummy

There's not much you can say about Dawn of the Mummy in terms of it being a cinematic masterpiece.  But it is damn good.  I mean, what happens to models when they travel to Egypt, meet up with some crooks raiding an Ancient Egyptian tomb that's been cursed?  They obviously awaken a Mummy and his army of the undead.

Dawn of the Mummy is just a lot of fun, but it has some strengths.  For a start, the cinematography and setting are amazing.  Second, it paces along just nicely with enough sub par acting to keep you entertained and laughing and thirdly, there is some pretty nice gore - especially at the end when the army of the undead are loose on the local town and are feasting upon everyone.

This is definitely one of the 80's forgotten gems, but it's one of many as the 80's was producing great, fun horror on a regular basis.  So grab a few cold ones, order a pizza and sit back and enjoy Dawn of the Mummy.  It's popcorn entertainment at its best.  Nothing more, nothing less.  Just pop it on and enjoy the fun and thrills.

The House of the Devil (2009)

Anyone who has a horror blog has probably mentioned this movie at some point.  There's probably nothing left to say about this one that hasn't been said before.  I have no doubt in my mind that the following review is going to be full of opinions you've read elsewhere if you've read the reviews for this film.  But I don't care.  I need to talk about this film.  This is the one of the movies of my generation I can see being heralded as a cult classic decades from now, if society has descended into a wasteland with no appreciation for the horror of the past.  This film made horror exciting and fresh just by taking a step back and simplifying things.  So let's get on to the review and me blowing smoke up the rear of a movie that probably just wants to cool down.

Set in the 80's, a college student is financially motivated to take a job babysitting the kid of a mysterious caller on the night of an eclipse.  As strange as the man on the phone is, Samantha really needs the money to pay for rent and basic living.  When she arrives at the house in the middle of nowhere, she's informed that she'll be babysitting an elderly lady and she was lied to because the couple needed a babysitter in such short notice.  Reluctantly, she accepts the job after being bribed with more money and it ends up being the biggest mistake of her life - the family are Satanists and they plan on using her in a ritual.

The House of the Devil isn't full of gore.  It isn't action packed.  It isn't full of scares.  So what makes it scary?  Well, it's the complete and utter helplessness of Samantha that makes it scary.  You really feel like you're in the movie with her and she's oblivious to everything that's going on - but we're not.  She's in the middle of nowhere with no transport and something terrible is about to happen to her.  The movie is effective because you just know something awful is about to happen, but it keeps you waiting and then when you don't expect it - BAM!!! - it hits you like lightening.

Ti West made a great decision setting this in the 80's.  There was no internet, no fancy phones and basically a complete lack of any form of communication technology.  All she has is the house phone, which was ultimately what got her into trouble when she ordered pizza from a number left by the Satanic family.  The lack of communication adds to the feeling of isolation and helplessness that Samantha is experiencing.  She's also oblivious as to what's in store for her.

Another great aspect of this movie are the settings.  They really compliment the film well.  The house is old and big, situated in the country, surrounded by woodland and away from the real world.  The night time setting outside also has a life of its own to it and you really feel like it's a special night.  It just doesn't feel like any other regular night and you get that 'there's something in the air feeling.'  The full moon, like other horror movies all throughout history, is a character in its own right.

Jocelin Donahue is the sole character for the majority of the movie and does an excellent job carrying it.  Even her simple mannerisms her character has to perform are intriguing to watch.  She makes the mundane and simple seem so interesting.  It doesn't hurt that she's friggin' perfect to look at as well.  She keeps this movie going on her own for the majority of it though and thoroughly deserves all the praise and more.

I believe this movie is a masterpiece of cinema and not just horror.  But unfortunately, it'll never be held in as high regard by anyone other than genre fans.  Although it may still be liked, it's more of a horror fans wet dream because we'd been waiting on a movie like this for some time.  It's a throwback in many aspects but also really fresh.  It's believable, it's authentic, it's engrossing and it stands out (head and shoulders above) most movies from the past few years (and there has been a lot of great movies in the past few years).

So, future horror classic?  I really hope so.  This really made Ti West a name and as a result I look forward to anything he does in future.

Return of the Living Dead: Necropolis

orr

I've done it.  I've completed my mission of watching the ROTLD in a matter of days, and because I still have flu, I might just watch another series.  If I do I'll review it here.  On to the point now though, what did I think of ROTLD: Necropolis?


I loved it.

After watching Rave to the Grave, I was expecting Necropolis to be the same trashy, mindless, fun crap.  But I was wrong.  This movie surprised me and proved all of my preconceptions wrong.  I thought it was a genuinely great movie that deserves a place in the series.  It may not be better than the 1st 3, but it does enough to deserve merit alongside them.  The only criticism I have is the slow moving zombies, but the strengths of the movie as a whole make that criticism irrelevant.

The film is about a group of friends who break into the headquarters of a corporation who are creating zombie super soldiers to save their friend.  It loosely follows the ideas put forward in Yuzna's predecessor.  But all Hell breaks loose when the zombies break out of their prison and start wreaking havoc on the place.  That's the basic summary of the plot, but as basic as the plot is, there's a lot of filler in this one to keep us fixated.

Unlike Rave to the Grave, the gore in this is pretty good and there's some neat special effects.  Also, like the 3rd one, it focuses more on horror than comedy.  I also loved the idea of Bio-Zombies.  Maybe this movie was trying to capitalise on the success of Resident Evil.  It doesn't matter though as Necropolis is good in its own right.  The acting was solid but not spectacular and more importantly, there was a robo zombie with a machine gun arm.

I honestly don't understand the criticism for this one.  I can understand for Rave to the Grave but not for Necropolis, as it was a genuinely good small budget movie with a lot going for it that kept me entertained throughout.  This doesn't rank with the 1st 3, but as I said, it does do enough to deserve a place in the series.

Return of the Living Dead: Rave To The Grave

So here I go taking a giant leap into Hell.  I'm taking a risk ruining a series for myself that I've fallen in love with by watching one of the sequels every fan of the series I know has told me to avoid.  Did I listen?  No... it just made it seem more appealing.  Surely no movie can be that bad...

And honestly - it really wasn't that bad.

Going into this I was expecting a cringe-worthy piece of crap that would be impossible to sit through.  So imagine my surprise when I actually enjoyed it.  Now don't get me wrong, it is a piece of crap, but it's a fun piece of crap.  The only comparison it has to the 1st 3 ROTLD movies is the name and the zombies repeating the word 'BRAINS' over and over.  In no way whatsoever does it even deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as the 1st 3, but if you can take it for what it is then you might enjoy it like I did.  It's a fun, trashy popcorn movie and shouldn't be viewed any other way.

I'll start off with the bad points - there are a few.  First off, the zombies looked like crap.  There was no effort put into making them look like zombies at all.  The make up was weak and it came out looking like regular people with chalked faces and a bit of red around the lips.  There was only 2 cool zombies (one that died instantly after suggesting promise and the other just sorta stood by a highway trying to get a passer by to pick it up and drive it to a rave).  Now onto the gore.  It isn't the best, but it's cheesy and fun enough to enjoy.  There was a really nice death with a screwdriver (or a pencil, I can't be sure) and there was a couple of fun decapitations.  However, the zombies died as a result of these as well as gun shots.  Everyone knows that ROTLD zombies are trickier to kill than this.  The humor is another weakness, but it's also a strength.  By that I mean that the attempts to make us laugh are so unfunny that we end up laughing at how unfunny they are.  It isn't LOL but it helps remind us that we shouldn't be taking it seriously.

I can't think of any strengths.  It was the weaknesses that made me enjoy it.  I wouldn't recommend this to someone who's expecting anywhere near on par with the 1st 3, but if you enjoy mindless, daft, immature fun with a bit of terrible zombies thrown in then you'll get a small kick from it.  Just think of it as just another zombie movie, because if you're a big ROTLD fan then this sequel might offend you.

Return of the Living Dead Part 3 (1993)

If you read my reviews on Return of the Living Dead Parts 1 & 2 then you'll know that I plan to review the entire series.  I'm currently on course to complete this task and tonight I got one step further with Return of the Living Dead Part 3, directed by the consistently great yet underrated director, Brian Yuzna (Re-Animator sequels and other greats).  Just like the first 2 movies, this one didn't disappoint me in the slightest.  As a matter of fact, it might even be the best in the series so far.  It takes a completely different approach from the comedy driven zombie action of the first two and instead focuses more on the horror and even more so - romance.

Curt and Julie are a young rebellious couple, completely in love, them against the world (you know the type).  Anyway, one night they sneak into a military base where Curt's dad works and witness an experiment where the military are trying to turn the undead into super soldiers.  Later on that night the young lovers decide to runaway together but an unfortunate accident kills Julie, and naturally Curt makes the mistake of bringing her back to life with the lethal 'Trioxin' that we've come to learn never ends up good for anyone when they're exposed to it.  Curt isn't ready to accept his girlfriend is becoming one of the undead, so he takes her on the run and they have to overcome obstacles such as the forces, the undead, a pissed of Hispanic gang looking for revenge and Julie's growing cannibalistic hunger.

For many fans of the series this was the movie that truly ended it.  I know the next 2 sequels are received with general loathing and contempt, but the 3rd of the series is a fan favorite often held in as high regard as the 1st (even more so than the 1st by some).  Brian Yuzna really switched it up with this one and put his own stamp on it.  If you've seen other Yuzna movies then you can tell it's one of his just by looking at the zombies amalgamated Picasso-like, appearances (Society comes to mind, only less f'd up).  Like his buddy and sometimes colleague, Stuart Gordon often does, Yuzna has presented a high concept idea on a small budget and made it look great. The only criticism I have is it's a shame Yuzna didn't do another sequel focusing on the zombie super soldiers going to war.

Return of the Living Dead Part 3 not only kept the series exciting, it kept it fresh.  Gone is the goofy comedy and in its place in more tense horror with a necrophelic romantic heart.  There is still a comedy outlet for the chaos going on though with the character of the River Man.  He's so insane it's hard not to have a giggle.  After watching this I don't know if I want to watch the next 2.  This was a perfect movie to round off a great series, and I haven't heard a single good thing about the next 2.  But I did promise you all that I would so I fully intend on doing so.  Who knows? I might even be one of the only people to enjoy them.

Dance of the Dead (2008)

Jimmy is a down on his luck class clown/pizza boy who's just been dumped by his girlfriend on the day of prom. To make matters worse she decides to go with the Class President/douchebag of the school.  On his way to the prom he gets a phone call from his boss saying he needs to work... like his night couldn't get any worse, right?  We also have a group of nerds who are members of the sci-fi club who couldn't get dates for prom in the first place so they decided to spend their night in the local cemetery. Then there's the rebellious garage punk rock band who refuse to go to prom because they're all anti-establishment, high and have a small case of the writer's block.  Could the night get any worse for anyone?  Well, that's where the zombies come in to put a further dampener on everyone's evening and it's up to Jimmy, the sci-fi club, the punks and a team of unlikely heroes, including a cheerleader and a psychopath who looks about 35 to save the day.

Horror/comedy gets mixed reaction from horror fans.  Movies like Shaun of The Dead have been great examples of how they can be both funny, yet stay true horror at the same time.  Then we have movies like Feast that just want us to have some bloody, gutsy fun.  Personally, I'm a huge fan of horror and comedy together, even if it focuses more on laughs than scares.  So if it's scares you're after then you won't find them in Dance of the Dead, as it's essentially a comedy with zombies thrown in the mix.  It's hilarious, and the dialogue is witty and fun.  The kills are a hoot as well (who knew that wrestling moves was an effective way to kill the undead?).  There's also zombie car theft and other weird and wonderful things going on.  It's understandable why this has become a movie with a strong cult following, and maybe in time it will become the cult classic it deserves to be.  I recommend it if you're a fun of goofball comedy horror like Todd & The Book of Pure Evil.  It's witty, it's funny, it has great kills, it has romance, it has car theft, it has wrestling and lots of other wonderful surprises.  Pick it up asap if you enjoy mindless fun.

Clownhouse (1989)

I'm of the opinion that a movie should only be judged by the product that's visible on the screen, but I know some people may judge a movie because of the circumstances surrounding it.  Clownhouse directed by Victor Salva (Jeepers Creepers) to some, is a victim of the latter.  For those of you not in the know, Victor Salva was found guilty of performing sexual acts with one of the child stars of the film.  It's a shame that this had to happen because people are going to avoid watching the film as a result, and if you ask me they're missing out because, when judged solely as a piece of cinema,  it's one of the best horror films of the 80's.

The film revolves around 3 young boys, one of whom, Casey, is petrified of clowns.  One night they visit the circus and poor Casey is so tormented by a playful clown and his friends that he runs out screaming.  Afterwards the 3 boys head home thinking all is well, but they're home alone and the clowns from the circus have been murdered by escaped mental patients and their costumes have been acquired by the killers who then set out to have some fun.  It's only fitting they should find the house where the 3 kids are telling ghost stories unsupervised.... Didn't you just hate when that happened as a kid?... Anyhoo, Casey keeps seeing the clowns outside the house, and he encounters them on a couple of occasions.  However, no one believes him at first, and it doesn't help that his older brother not only doesn't believe him - he also teases him.  The clowns only torment Casey at the start, which is fitting due to his bed wetting fear of clowns.

I won't give away any more of what happens in the movie because it's one you really need to see for yourself.  I will tell you more reasons why it's a good film though.  The basic idea of this movie is horror at its purest - children home alone being invaded by psychopaths, who's only motivation is to torment for the sake of it.  In my opinion, it's the best of the home invasion movies, and it's even more effective because its children who are the victims.  It's a suspenseful horror film, and what it lacks in blood and gore it makes up for in slow building tension, a menacing atmosphere throughout and an ominous score combined with circus music.  It has an incredible 80's feel to it but it still holds up to this day.

I plead that you put any personal animosities towards the directors actions and focus solely on the piece of cinema he's created.  He may be a pervert, but he's also a very talented filmmaker and if you can watch this and judge it solely as a movie then you're in for a real treat.  Clowns are a staple in horror history, and this is an example of them being executed to the best of their ability.

Welcome To The FUNHOUSE!!!!!!

Hey guys.  My name is Kieran and this is my horror blog.  The reason I started blogging was to justify my addiction - movies.  I've always loved writing my incoherent ramblings down and I thought with a whole internet out there, I thought I'd add my own horror blog and share the love with fellow fans.  The main purpose of this blog is to talk horror with fellow horror fans.  If I even get one reader then I'll consider this an accomplishment.

I've loved horror from a very young age.  My gateway was Goosebumps, Ghostbusters and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, but I always used to stay up late and consume all the horror I could.  It never scared me, it fascinated me and my imagination ran wild (to the dismay of my creative writing teacher). When I was 7, we used to do creative writing in school and I was the little oddball writing about monsters, ghosts and cannibals.  My love of horror, and film in general, kept progressing as I got older and I'm still that big kid to this day (even though I'm 23 now and have adult responsibilities).

So feel free to chat, comment, ask me things, request, etc.  I hope you enjoy my blog.
