I would walk with great trepidation through the horror isle of the video store knowing that here were things not for young’ns like myself. I knew that there … Continue reading →

I love intelligent horror movies and wish there were more of them. But you know what? I love the dumb ones too. Maybe more. I have no intellectual defense of it, I just like it. I don’t like them “ironically.” I don’t even know what that means really. I am simply entertained. And for big … Continue reading →

This article was originally published on 12ftdwende.com on 30 April 2010. So a few weeks ago I mentioned that my favorite of the cinematic boogeymen is Freddy Krueger. What can I say, he got me young. From the boxes in the video store to the bits and pieces I’d catch on late night television, that … Continue reading →

The Invisible Man (1933) – I have always been a fan of horror movies. Always. I was a weird kid, you know? The grim and macabre held a great fascination for me. Now my parents recognized this but you’d be hard-pressed to find responsible parents who would let their 6-year-old see the latest Freddy Krueger … Continue reading →

A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) — In theaters I was just stoked that someone actually made Freddy Krueger scary again.

Such universally relatable scenarios have formed the basis of the prolific Friday the 13th series [this remake is the 12th film made]. There are always interesting … Continue reading →
