A Dark Superhero Movie: Why is The Crow the Best Horror film?
For the past twenty-two years, I’ve seen lots of horror movies and I have favorites that have reasons why they are my favorite. For example, The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1976) is my favorite horror cult movie for its characters and its plot. The Nightmare on Elm Street (1984-2010) franchise is my favorite slasher film and Freddy Krueger is my favorite character in all of the horror genre. Cannibal Holocaust (1985) was a movie that will gross me out and a movie I will only watch once. The Saw (2004-2017) Franchise has the best plot twist ending out of all the horror movies I’ve seen. The Frankenstein creature, which is based on the novel Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, was a character I related to growing up and even now because of my diagnosis of Autism at a young age and being left out or rejected for who I was. The exact feeling the creature had once he was brought to life by Dr. Frankenstein. I can continue with more movies and why they are so special, however, we would be here for a while if I were to do that.

The Shining: a Timeless Masterpiece of Horror
The axe strikes the door again and Wendy Torrance lets out a shriek of terror, her trembling hands clutching a knife. Wood splinters and Jack Torrance (devoted husband and father) presses his face against the gaping wound in the bathroom door. “Here’s Johnny!”

5 Underappreciated J-Horror Films
Well, it's October again and that means that Halloween is on the way. I did a thing last year where, in the weeks leading up to Halloween, I wrote a series of horror-related lists and reviews. I wanted to do something in the same vein this year and what better way than to return to my flagship series?

Hunters Series - Burn Part Nine
The drive to Salt Lake felt so slow, like we were going through mud and it was clinging to the tires. I thought about everything I’d been through. Losing my dad, losing my soul and dealing with a demon all at once. I didn’t know how much more I could really handle. The thing is I had to handle it all even if I didn’t think I could.

Hunters Series - Burn Part Eight
We pulled up to the Boulder Station casino and looked around for a minute. It was a little run down and was way off the strip. C.J. parked the car in a spot close to the casino so we had a good view of the front entrance.

Hunters Series - Part Seven
The air was hot and dry. It was one of those dry heat days when you were thankful that it wasn’t any wetter out. I walked across the dusty road towards the hotel that I needed to get too. There was no one around and not a person to tell me that I was in the wrong place. My eyes shifted to the side street catching a figure walking towards me. He was tall with long blonde hair and I knew right then what it was that was coming towards me. I swallowed hard and glanced back at the hotel. Another figure was there. It looked like he was yelling to me. I ran as fast as I could for the hotel. Then, I realized who it was that was yelling to me.

Hunters Series - Burn Part Four
I stood up and ran down the stairs at full speed. The blonde demon turned when he heard me and started at me. He moved faster than anyone should and slammed into my body. I hit the wall by the door hard and teetered almost losing my balance. The demon was right there, face twisted in disgust. I shot back to the door. Just a couple feet more and I’d be out. I felt a hand on my leg and I fell forward slamming my face into the floor. The blonde demon pulled me back to the water demon, who smiled wide in approval at me.
