The Night Has Fangs Directed by Ted Nicolaou, written by a team that includes B-movie master Charles Band, and backed by Full Moon Features, 1991’s direct-to-video Subspecies breathed new life into the slowly fading corpse of the vampire film genre. The film tells the story of rival brothers Stefan and Radu, two vampires with veryContinue reading “Halloween Bites! Subspecies (1991)”

Halloween Bites! Nosferatu (1922)
“The Master is near…..” Released in 1922, F. W. Murnau’s Nosferatu: A Symphony Of Horror is the first vampire film to ever grace the big screen according to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. A blatant rip-off of Bram Stoker’s Dracula novel, Murnau changed the names of the characters and the ultimate demiseContinue reading “Halloween Bites! Nosferatu (1922)”
Thirty-One Days O’Horror Returns!
You’re Gonna Drink Up This Year’s Theme! Vampires! Vampires! Vampires! Need I say more???? While I know that I haven’t been around as much as I’d like to this year (thanks to major changes at my job), I will definitely continue my October tradition of Thirty-One Days O’Horror. This year I’ll be taking a lookContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror Returns!”
Halloween Bites! Thirty-One Days O’Horror 2024!
Next Halloween Is Gonna Suck! Thirty-One Days O’Horror has gone down many dark alleys over the years. From a look at all of the classic Universal Monsters to classic Disney horror films and attractions to a bevy of beautiful Final Girls and this year’s sadistic slashers, I try to keep things a bit fresh eachContinue reading “Halloween Bites! Thirty-One Days O’Horror 2024!”
Revenge Of The Slashers: Michael Myers
The night HE came home! Happy Halloween! You’ve made it to the final day of Thirty-One Days O’Horror! My month long celebration of my favorite slashers comes to a close with none other than Michael Myers! He wasn’t the first slasher, isn’t the most lethal, but he’s the granddaddy of ’em all! There was noContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: Michael Myers”
Revenge Of The Slashers: Ghostface
“Do you like scary movies????“ Ghostface needs no introduction. If you’ve been on this planet since 1996, there’s no doubt in my mind that you have seen at least one Scream film. When the original Scream movie hit the big screen, it turned the slasher genre on its head, directly referencing other films in theContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: Ghostface”
Revenge Of The Slashers: “Billy”
“Filthy Billy. I know what you did, nasty Billy!” Although we barely get a glimpse of him in the film, “Billy” is easily one of the creepiest slashers on my list this year. Appearing in 1974’s Black Christmas, “Billy” terrorizes a houseful of sorority sisters by making obscene phone calls to them and then killingContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: “Billy””
Revenge Of The Slashers: The Prowler
“I want you to be my date, Rose.” Of all of the slashers on this list, the Prowler is probably the one most forgotten despite having some of the most brutal kills in cinematic history. The original film, which I reviewed here, fared poorly at the box office, but the gory kills that came courtesyContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: The Prowler”
Revenge Of The Slashers: Angela Baker
“If she were any quieter, she’d be dead!” She might be sweet on the surface, but Angela Baker is a big ol’ bag of messed up under the skin! 1983’s Sleepaway Camp introduced the world to Angela and thanks to the brilliant performance of Felissa Rose as Angela, the character has been a part ofContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: Angela Baker”
Revenge Of The Slashers: Sweeney Todd
“A proper artist with a razor.” Arguably the oldest slasher on this list, Sweeney Todd may not immediately come to mind when talking about slashers and slasher films, but he definitely fits the bill. The character originated in 1846 in a printed serial, also known as penny dreadfuls, titled The String Of Pearls. From thereContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: Sweeney Todd”
