Scream Queen Impact I have to admit that when I was researching potential Scream Queens, Shauna Macdonald popped into my head for one film and one film alone: The Descent (2005). That film alone makes her worthy to be on this list as far as I’m concerned, but as soon as I looked at herContinue reading “Reign of the Scream Queens: Shauna Macdonald”

Reign of the Scream Queens: Katharine Isabelle and Emily Perkins
Scream Queen Dynamic Duo Katharine Isabelle and Emily Perkins chewed their way into horror fans’ hearts with the cult classic Ginger Snaps (2000).

“Crexy” Day O’Horror #2!
Somewhere in Rural America I like Eric Balfour. He’s one of those actors who always manages to find work, but not necessarily in the most appealing films and television shows. Every once in awhile he’ll hit a home run with shows like Haven or 24, but he spends most of his time on the setContinue reading ““Crexy” Day O’Horror #2!”
