“We scared’em all away….” Four lonesome ghosts, desperate for a few new souls to haunt, make a phone call to the Ajax Ghost Exterminators hoping to “scare the pants off of them.” Luckily for Disney fans, the exterminators happen to be Disney’s Holy Trinity: Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy. The trio, surprised by theContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Lonesome Ghosts (1937)”

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: The Haunted Mansion (Disney Theme Parks)
“Welcome foolish mortals….” My first trip to Walt Disney World was way back in 1999. Having been a massive fan of Disney for my entire life and wanting to visit at least one of the company’s theme parks, this was a major moment for me. My wife and I visited all of the parks atContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: The Haunted Mansion (Disney Theme Parks)”
Thirty-One Days O’Horror: The Watcher In The Woods (1980)
Disney’s Strange Little Gem When one thinks of horror films, they probably don’t think about films produced by Disney. While the Mouse is best known for its family films, it has managed to produce a few solid horror flicks, albeit mostly of the family friendly variety. One of the earliest Disney horror films to pushContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: The Watcher In The Woods (1980)”
Thirty-One Days O’Horror Begins Tomorrow!
“When the crypt doors creak….” Despite a major hurricane destroying most of my home and internet service that won’t be very reliable, yours truly will go forward with Thirty-One Days O’Horror! My first post will be published tomorrow and I will do my best to review a minimum of three films each week and I’llContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror Begins Tomorrow!”
It’s Just Around The Corner!
Days O’Horror 2020! Halloween will be here before we know it, so with that in mind I decided to give my readers a sneak peek at what’s to come in October’s month long celebration, Thirty-One Days O’Horror! Last year I focused on thirty-two Universal Monsters classic films (I threw in the Spanish version of DraculaContinue reading “It’s Just Around The Corner!”
Days O’Horror #31: The Wolf Man (1941)
“All astronomers are amateurs. When it comes to the heavens, there’s only one professional” What can I say about 1941’s The Wolf Man that I haven’t said before. I love this film. It’s my favorite horror movie, favorite werewolf movie, and one of my top five favorite films of all time. Lon Chaney, Jr. nailedContinue reading “Days O’Horror #31: The Wolf Man (1941)”
Days O’Horror #30: Abbott And Costello Meet The Invisible Man (1951)
Murder! Boxing! Comedy! Abbott and Costello Meet The Invisible Man finds the popular comedic duo facing off with a man on the run for a murder that he didn’t commit. Released in 1951, the film is my personal favorite of all of the Abbott and Costello Meet…. films released by Universal. The film stars BudContinue reading “Days O’Horror #30: Abbott And Costello Meet The Invisible Man (1951)”
Days O’Horror #29: The House Of Frankenstein (1944)
“Could Frankenstein Have Made Me Like Other Men?” 1943’s Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man gave us the first team up of Universal Monsters. 1944’s The House of Frankenstein added Dracula to the fray (at least temporarily) and would continue these team ups in later films starting with House of Dracula (1945). Boris Karloff stars notContinue reading “Days O’Horror #29: The House Of Frankenstein (1944)”
Days O’Horror #28: Abbott And Costello Meet The Mummy (1955)
“Some mummies are men. Some mummies are women” In the second to last film that they would make together, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello dig up some laughs in 1955’s Abbott And Costello Meet The Mummy. The movie isn’t as funny as some of their other films, but it’s still a pretty serviceable comedy. TryingContinue reading “Days O’Horror #28: Abbott And Costello Meet The Mummy (1955)”
Days O’Horror #27: The Invisible Man’s Revenge (1944)
Return To Insanity After three relatively unrelated sequels that bore little resemblance to the first The Invisible Man film, 1944’s The Invisible Man’s Revenge brings murder and power-hungry insanity back into the story. Jon Hall, who starred in The Invisible Agent two years prior, returns as a new character, Robert Griffin, who isn’t related toContinue reading “Days O’Horror #27: The Invisible Man’s Revenge (1944)”
