Sorry, Gang!

Where The Heck Have I Been???? I’ve been missing in action for a little while now and I just wanted to drop in to say that I’m sorry for not making any recent posts.

Getting “The Dirt” On Mötley Crüe

Netflix Despite being one of my favorite bands of all time, I’ve never read the autobiographical The Dirt by Mötley Crüe. I’ve read and heard plenty of their stories over the last few decades in other media, but never did purchase the book. Thankfully Netflix has breathed life into some of their misadventures in theContinue reading “Getting “The Dirt” On Mötley Crüe”

Throwback Thursday: Halloween (1978)

Forty Years Ago It’s hard to believe that it has been forty years since John Carpenter’s Halloween was released.  While it wasn’t the first slasher film (many argue that 1912’s The Lunatics deserves that title), it was definitely the film that blazed the trail for future slasher franchises such as Friday The 13th, A NightmareContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Halloween (1978)”

It’s October, Ghoulies!

Busy, Busy, Busy! Last year I tried and failed to watch and review thirty-one horror films in thirty-one days in celebration of Halloween.  This year I’m very happy to have an excuse to not do that this year.  Why?  Because I’m going to be busy having way too much fun.  I have something planned forContinue reading “It’s October, Ghoulies!”
