I have to admit that I’m not the biggest fan of Clive Barker. The blood and gore focus of horror. But just because its not my cup of tea in terror doesn’t mean I don’t respect what he brings. Since I have gotten into horror movies, his name always pops up for the recognition he’s done for books and movies. I do have to respect that he does bring something new to horror. It’s not just blood and guts flying everywhere it really is a sought out story.
Samantha ParrishPublished 2 years ago in HorrorHorror Classics: The Fearless Vampire Killers
The Fearless Vampire Killers is one of those films that, depending on your point of view, is either a masterpiece or a waste of time. With that in mind, I thought it'd be a good addition to the Horror Classics series - especially considering how serious the previous films were.
Greg SeebregtsPublished 2 years ago in HorrorHalloween 1978 is a true classic
When people look back at certain genres they all have instant classics that come to mind. Horror is no different as the slasher era has gone on to redefine what it means to be a horror film. A few films had inspiration over that change but perhaps none more than Halloween in 1978.

Häxan, a Danish quiet thriller delivered in 1922, is still as terrifying today as it was the point at which it originally unnerved crowds 100 years back.

Sean PatrickPublished 2 years ago in HorrorThe Top Ghost Films You Need to See
"The Shining" (1980) (Gene pick) The film version of "The Shining" combines two masters at the top of their craft - writer Stephen King and director Stanley Kubrick. Based on King's second novel, King reportedly hated the film, and in 1997 wrote the screenplay for a TV mini-series that was more faithful to his vision. However, the mini-series has been largely forgotten, while the film stands out as a terrifying masterpiece of horror. Known to be fanatic about detail, and adept at working on subliminal levels, Kubrick does more than the viewer realizes to have an increasing sense of wrongness and dread mirroring the feeling the family living in the hotel has that at any time, they could encounter creepy twins in a hallway, or have a vision of elevators full of blood. To see exactly what Kubrick does to achieve this feeling, see the excellent documentary "Room 237."

I swear I’ve been here before. This all looks so familiar. Triangle found its way into theaters in 2009. Left stranded on their boat, a group of friends gets on a stray shift. Noticing something peculiar about this ship, what happens next is hard to describe.
