Keeping The Family Tradition Alive Dracula’s Daughter (1936) is a rather unique film. It doesn’t fit the mold of your standard vampire movie. Instead of a vampire intent on drinking the local citizenry dry, this film features a vampire that wants to break free of its curse (at least in the beginning of the film).Continue reading “Days O’Horror #2: Dracula’s Daughter (1936)”

Days O’Horror #1: The Invisible Man (1933)
Seeing the unseen for the first time! Being a huge Universal Monsters fanatic, it somewhat pains me to admit that until yesterday I had never viewed any of the films featuring The Invisible Man in their entirety. I have watched films influenced by these movies and read the book by H.G. Wells that started itContinue reading “Days O’Horror #1: The Invisible Man (1933)”
The Horror Starts Tomorrow!
Thirty-One Days O’ Horror! Tomorrow I will be diving into the first of a month-long look at thirty-one of Universal’s classic horror films. Things will begin with a Universal film that I’ve never actually viewed before, 1933’s The Invisible Man, starring Claude Rains and loosely based on the popular H.G. Wells novel of the sameContinue reading “The Horror Starts Tomorrow!”
Thirty-One Days O’Horror Returns!!!
And this time it’s Universal! About two years ago I decided to watch and review thirty-one horror films across the month of October. I made it to day fourteen and had to call it quits due to the fact that work was piling up on me and I’m lazy. This year, however, I’m primed toContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror Returns!!!”
Throwback Thursday: Zone Troopers (1985)
Somewhere in Italy Trapped behind enemy lines during World War II and chased by Nazis, a small group of American soldiers end up as the rescuers of an unlikely POW—an alien! 1985’s Zone Troopers is definitely not for everyone. It’s a B-movie with big dreams and hokey special effects that might turn off a lotContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Zone Troopers (1985)”
Throwback Thursday: Boggy Creek (2011)
Not In Fouke, Arkansas When I was nine years old, my parents took me and my siblings to see Boggy Creek II: And The Legend Continues. In a dimly lit theater in Oakdale, LA, I became enthralled with the beast that terrorized the rural town of Fouke, AR and a professor and students intent onContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Boggy Creek (2011)”

This free event will once again be held at the Brimstone Museum in Sulphur.

Throwback Thursday: This Bigfoot Isn’t Blurry!
Texarkana, Texas Just a stone’s throw away from Fouke, Arkansas is Texarkana, Texas. While that fact may not interest everyone, it definitely got the attention of Bigfoot fans earlier this month. On June 14th and 15th in Texarkana, The Legend of Boggy Creek was shown at the Perot Theatre, the same theater where the filmContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: This Bigfoot Isn’t Blurry!”
Monster Mash!
Fenway Park And Beyond…. Godzilla: King of the Monsters has been out for almost two weeks now. It’s ticket sales haven’t been impressive and it has been slammed by critics, but the bottom line is this: If you watch a Godzilla movie hoping for anything other than massive monster fights, you’re watching it for theContinue reading “Monster Mash!”

Upcoming goodies! I’ve been away for a bit but have no fear, I’m back. Between laptop issues, work, and life, I haven’t been able to post as much as I would like to in recent months. Thankfully things seem to be slowing down a bit and I have a little bit more free time toContinue reading “Weekly Update!”
