Tusk
Tusk is a movie I discovered, along with The Caretaker and Max Fleischer's original Superman cartoons, in a dream. Most of my creative choices, as well as what I intellectually consume, are decided upon because of dreams. If I dream a song, I listen to it as soon as I wake up. If I dream of a movie or a book, I watch the movie or read the book (or some of it that same day). I want to know what the larger mind, the Universal Conscious Awareness, is trying to impart to me as a "message." This is guaranteed to reap dividends.
Review of Poor Things
Did you watch Poor Things? I saw the snippets online and on TV, and the scenes looked sumptuous. Emma Stone is one of my favorite actors.

Rosa pinioned her hands against the cubicle as her bowels jetted a red-brown soup into the porcelain. Her stage fright always started in the gut, though Rosa would never have admitted that's what it was. And it never got easier. The tension of stepping out in front of a crowd of unimpressed, unenthusiastic punters caused her gastric contortions she was unable to contain. Fortunately, the smell of some agoraphobic chemist's notion of a pine forest covered up her own colonic aromas.

Backyard Skulls
February 2007 His blade slices through the fleshy parts with ease. It’s graceful, disgusting but graceful. How he holds that carved handle with equal parts purpose and delicacy, as if he’s painting a rummage sale art piece to hang over a fireplace.

The curse
There's blood EVERYWHERE! Where did all this come from? Oh, no!! I see my friend covered by his own gore. One of his arm is missing... It's lying not far from him. The blood is all over him... Wait... It's all over ME! I panick... Now that's a terrifying situation to wake up to.
One to See, One to Speak, One to Listen
Contains gore and horror some readers may find disturbing. Rated 14+ Author's Intro: This story is meant to revive the Gothic literature so famously crafted by one of my favourite writer's, Edgar Allen Poe, and as such, the language and style is deliberately antiquated. Thank you for reading my all time favourite work of horror - Les
Call Me LesPublished 2 years ago in HorrorCreeps
Climbing from her apartment window onto the rusty fire escape, she carefully avoided the sharp bits she had snagged herself on before. Up a few more ladders and landings, she finally ascended to the rooftop. Laying on her back, she peered up at the stars that began appearing in the night sky. She had done this since she was a girl. Long ago, it became too dangerous to travel on the ground, significantly as night fell. However, from this particular vantage point, the world looked the same as before the reckoning, except for the decrease of smog. She felt like she could reach up and touch the twinkling lights above her and swirl them around her fingers like diamond rings.

The Black Pillow

Sean PatrickPublished about 7 hours ago in HorrorThe Lady in Waiting
It was a balmy afternoon when I arrived at Honolulu International Airport. My flight was delayed, so I decided to relax in the waiting area, soaking in the ambiance of the tropical paradise. As I sipped on a refreshing pineapple juice, I couldn't help but notice an anxious blonde lady in a white dress standing at one of the gates. She seemed out of place, her eyes fixed on the runway as if she were waiting for someone.

A story about a psychopath
In the small, sleepy town of Greenwood, the arrival of Dr. Adrian Blackwood caused quite a stir. He was charming, handsome, and an exceptional neurosurgeon with an enigmatic air about him.

Chisom EstherPublished about 8 hours ago in Horror Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Prometheus' (2012)
Seriously shocked that I never reviewed this movie. It's the kind of movie that misses its own point so badly that a critic can easily take a big wet bite out of it.
Reed AlexanderPublished about 11 hours ago in HorrorThe Whispering Woods
Deep in the Whispering Woods there was an old mansion, red brick walls of which were covered with moss and half torn roofs which had blackened with time and were rustling in the wind at night. Like old men talking to themselves. It was a dark and autumn atmosphere – even breathing the air felt like inhaling rotten livers. The trees appeared to have turned away from the house in a shy manner.
MOUNT ELONE,"NO ONE ENTERS, NO ONE LEAVES"
It was a night like no other, the kind where the air itself seemed to hold its breath, waiting. In the town of Elone, nestled at the base of the ominous Mount Elone, the streets were eerily silent. No wind rustled the leaves, no animals scurried in the night. The town’s residents knew better than to venture out after dark, especially on the nights when the mountain’s shadow stretched unnaturally long, reaching out as if trying to ensnare the town in its grasp.

In the quaint town of Ravendale, nestled in a valley surrounded by misty mountains, life moved at a leisurely pace. The cobblestone streets were lined with charming cottages, and the townsfolk greeted each other with warm smiles and friendly waves. But as idyllic as Ravendale seemed, it harbored a secret—a secret that lurked in the shadows.

Behind the curtains which flip with every new vision, the heart pounds softly and then suddenly the pace ruptures and rises swiftly. Lap dab lap dab, then a huge gasp of air and the breath increases...what happened to courage?
