Have you ever been watching a horror movie when, unexpectedly, an actor you know pops up in a small role (a cameo, if you will?) We're not talking early roles from now-big-name thespians (like George and Leo); I mean those with decades-long careers, some of which are horror icons already. To me, it's always a … Continue reading 10 Horror Movie Cameos

31 Days of Horror Movie Themes
Rather than the usual "here's one horror movie to watch a day", I'm going to do half of the work and suggest a theme a day. I'll give you the theme (or trope) with some examples and starting info; the rest is up to you. It's like I'm curating, so you can fill the list … Continue reading 31 Days of Horror Movie Themes
10 Horror Movie Characters I Feel Sorry For
Horror can create some truly tragic characters, given the amount of crap the writers throw at them during the runtime of a movie—and sometimes prior to the movie itself. Some characters are basic cannon fodder for masked slasher killers, while others have more depth with sombre backstories and trauma. They are layered or innocent, undeserving … Continue reading 10 Horror Movie Characters I Feel Sorry For
31 Days of Summer Horror
We're into my least favourite season. I'm Scottish, so I don't handle heat well. There's nothing good about having to have a fan on 24/7 to avoid dying of heatstroke in your own bed. But I digress. [clears throat] The days are getting longer, the weather's getting hotter, and the young-uns are out of school. … Continue reading 31 Days of Summer Horror
Why Are the British Desensitised? – My Theory
I've lived in Britain for 36 years—since I was born here in late 1986—and I can't help but notice that we're a lot harder to scare than some other nationalities. I've only really known three people who get even mildly scared at horror movies. One of them, whom I've known since we were 11, has … Continue reading Why Are the British Desensitised? – My Theory
Horror TV Moments That Made Me Cry – Top 10
I've found that 30+ years of watching horror movies has made me more empathetic. This means I'm more likely to cry during sad moments of films and TV. A few months ago I watched Moana with my other half—his first time, my second—and I swear I cried from start to finish; especially when her grandmother … Continue reading Horror TV Moments That Made Me Cry – Top 10
My Favourite Characters in Horror: Hitchcock – Top 10
I've been a fan of Hitchcock for less than a decade. I had already seen Psycho and The Birds when I was younger, but I didn't truly begin to experience his extensive filmography until my late-20s after seeing James Rolfe's list of his top 10 Hitchcock movies. That was my jumping off point. I've now … Continue reading My Favourite Characters in Horror: Hitchcock – Top 10
Horror Movie Remakes I Actually Enjoyed
I think I'm starting to chill in my old age when it comes to movies. Although I've never been that picky about horror, I wasn't particularly a fan of remakes unless I hadn't seen the original. A lot of the time, when I found out a remake of a classic was coming, I would just … Continue reading Horror Movie Remakes I Actually Enjoyed
The 11 Most Confusing Horror Movies I’ve Seen
Let's face it, not every horror movie is a straight forward slasher or found footage that smacks us in the face with its obviousness. Sometimes the writers like to leave us perplexed by making the ending ambiguous or throwing in so many curve balls we don't know what's going on. Then there's the occasional (usually … Continue reading The 11 Most Confusing Horror Movies I’ve Seen
