I was browsing the trailers on Hulu as I sometimes like to do and saw one for a movie that immediately caught my eye: Krampus. It’s not often we get treated to horror movies around the non-Halloween holiday season. Except for around Valentine’s Day. That’s always a good time ofContinue Reading
We docked in Le Havre, France, on the last day of our British Isles cruise. Le Havre is a gateway to France’s Normandy region, somewhere I’ve long wanted to jaunt. Mainly because I’ve been curious about the D-Day beaches. I partly picked the cruise because it afforded a chance toContinue Reading
Last week the Charlie Charlie Challenge (#CharlieCharlieChallenge) swept the Internet. The second I saw it on the Today Show, I knew it’d make a great Forum and Facebook post. (Á la the question: Have you tried summoning Charlie the Mexican demon?) On Saturday afternoon, rain forced us home from theContinue Reading
I forget how I stumbled across the trailer for Crimson Peak, but some description of it including the following words: haunted, Gothic, atmospheric, and Guillermo del Toro.

Sometimes I get bored with standard viewing fare and watch movie previews on Flixster. That’s how I discovered Housebound, an indie horror movie that looks promising. It looks scary, yet also appears to be laced with humor. (À la Shaun of the Dead. Except with ghosts instead of zombies.) It’sContinue Reading
The other night I was flipping through the horror movies in my Amazon Instant Video queue and came across one I’d forgotten I’d saved to my list: Thankskilling. It reminded me of something I’d thought when I’d first seen it: is it possible they now have a horror movie forContinue Reading
While I was watching Dateline on Friday night, a commercial for “Rosemary’s Baby” caught my attention. Of course I had to go look that up. Turns out it will be a four-hour, two-part event based on the 1967 bestseller by Ira Levin. This adaptation was written by Scott Abbott (“QueenContinue Reading
I received an email from a rep at White Lotus Productions about a new indie horror movie they are trying to promote, HazMat. “HazMat” won Best Horror Film at the Berlin Independent Film Festival and the Massachusetts Independent Film Festival.

On Sunday May 11, 2014, Showtime will premier a new drama called Penny Dreadful. If you like Gothic Victorian horror and suspense this show will appeal to you too. (Yes, I have a penchant for that sort of thing myself.) From the Penny Dreadful page on Showtime, here’s what theContinue Reading
