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 …

Dial M for Murder (1954) Review

This is my second favourite film with Grace Kelly, who was a frequent collaborator with Hitchcock, appearing in 3 consecutive movies: Dial M for Murder (1954), Rear Window (1954), and To Catch a Thief (1955). An ex-tennis pro named Tony invites an old acquaintance under the pretence that he is interested in buying a car …

My Thoughts While Watching… Midsommar (2019) [Trigger Warning: Topics of Suicide]

The Boy (2016) Review

It's October 6th and today we're looking at the 2016 horror that got a lot of negative reviews. That makes me a little bit sad because I enjoyed it, but then again I'm not as picky as most people when it comes to horrors and thrillers. Greta Evans is a young girl from America, who …

The Wicker Man (1973) Review *WARNING: SPOILERS*

I originally saw this movie a few years ago after watching Channel 4's "100 Greatest Scary Moments". This was featured at number 34. After that I was determined to see it. When I eventually did, all I could say was... what the hell did I just watch? In all honestly I had no idea. Even …
