Hey folks, it's been a while. I took a break from here for a few months to allow myself to recharge. I know, you wanted your cheap and exploitative fix, and I wasn't here providing the sugar. I'm sorry. I was busy getting married. Anyway, I have a tradition every October of watching 31 horror … Continue reading Mulberry Street (2006)
Yeah, we're going with another Weird Western, this time a fusion of horror and cowboy cinema which points out the terrifying trouble with western expansion, not just in terms of the racism but also the after effects of the ecological devastation that mass migration into unclaimed wilderness can bring.

The insect life in Australia is terrifying. The animal life in Australia is terrifying. Seriously, it's an entire continent of beautiful beaches and ecological nightmares. So … Continue reading The Ruins (2008)
Hey look, it's Rear Window meets Boggy Creek! Abominable is the story of Preston Rogers, a paraplegic confined to a wheelchair after a terrible climbing accident that killed his wife. You know, like in Cliffhanger or something. Maybe you shouldn't have tried climbing something called Suicide Rock, but what do I know? I'm not big … Continue reading Abominable (2006)
