Monster Mash
"Once upon a time a midnight dreary I ponder weak and weary," just like the macabre writings of Edger Allen Poe. It kinda reminds me of those monster movies we used to watch when we were kids. You know the Boris Karloff or Bela Lugosi flicks that always came on TV mostly on Saturday nights when television was so young. Whether it was Frankenstein or Dracula and others we were all entertained. In more than one instance as kids we tried to make a real life monster, just like the Frankenstein movie we watched that previous Saturday. We literally turned our parents garages into "Laboratories." On so many occasions the Saturday night monster movies were showcased by Soupy Sales who hosted Shock Theater. As kids we begged our parents or did anything just so they would let us stay up to that ungodly hour of 10 o'clock when Shock Theater came on. Huddled under blankets ever so near to those small TV screens, we were glued to the tube as they say until the very last.

'The Exorcist' (1973): An Appreciation
"You show me Regan's double, same face, same voice, everything. And I'd know it wasn't Regan. I'd know in my gut. I'm telling you that that thing upstairs isn't my daughter. Now I want you to tell me that you know for a fact that there's nothing wrong with my daughter except in her mind! You tell me for a fact that an exorcism wouldn't do any good! YOU TELL ME THAT!"

Isabel
Hello, my name is Isabel. I have a dark story to tell. For fifty years on end, I have been in the space between the living and the dead, watching the man I used to love slowly become a empty and demented shell. Alone he sits in his room, surrounded by white walls; nurses and doctors regularly patrol the halls.

Part One
Her chest heaved, searching desperately for air, as her body weakened with each step. She had been running for so long. The cold of night had brought chills to her skin, even as she ran. Darkness enveloped her — only a few small rays of light peaked out from the canopy of tall trees that surrounded her. I must find somewhere to hide, she thought to herself, frantically searching along the distant tree line.

The Best Bad Horror Films
Most horror fans I know have movies that they absolutely love and have no qualms admitting that they are over the top and cheesy. I personally think movies that are so bad that they’re good should have their own category when browsing on Netflix; sometimes the mood calls for something, cheesy, gory, and possibly packed with partial nudity. As a long-time fan of the genre and horror film reviewer I’ve seen some great films, some unwatchable wastes of time, and some amazingly bad pieces of cinema. It only takes a quick Google search to see lists upon lists of bad horror movies, so I know this isn’t an original idea nor is it, by any means, a comprehensive list. We all know about Troll, Sharknado, and Birdemic but I’m going to try to dig a little deeper and show you some of my favorites that never seem to make those lists. It doesn’t matter to me if the cheese is intentional or not, it is still present in all of these films and in large amounts. Ladies and gents, I give you four of the best bad horror films you (probably) haven’t seen.

Best Horror TV Shows of All Time
The horror genre is slowly making its way into the world of television. Since it's pretty big on the large screen, and people cannot get enough of shitting themselves through horror movies, why not create the thrilling genre into a TV series? All the more to shit themselves over.

'Zombies, Man... They Creep Me Out!'
Zombies. Where did this lovable epidemic come from? When I was a kid in the late 80s, early 90s, I loved horror films. In fact, they were an extension of who I was as a kid. I saw my first horror film at four years old (yes, I remember). As I reminisced in a post I did while ago titled "10 Films I Would Need If Stranded on a Deserted Island":
