October 30, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

Uzumaki is based on the manga of the same name from Junji Ito. It has been pretty heavily changed so as to be a coherent single story rather than a […]

October 28, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

I never saw the first Critters movie. In fact, the only exposure to the franchise I had up until this point was actually seeing about 5 minutes of Critters 2 […]

Horrortoberfest Day 27 – Creep (2014)

October 27, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

Creep being a found footage style movie means it was going to have to work a little harder to get me on board. Then it worked much harder than I […]

October 26, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

October 25, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

When you see that there is a direct-to-video sequel to the Child’s Play franchise, you immediately begin to wonder if it could be worse than Seed of Chucky since even […]

Horrortoberfest Day 24 – Tremors 5: Bloodlines (2015)

October 24, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

The original Tremors is one of those nostalgia inducing movies from my childhood. I picked that movie off the shelf of the Blockbuster more than once. I loved the tension […]

October 23, 2015by jonmastery 2 Comments

Teeth is a movie that centers around the old myth of the vagina dentata or, as Deniro so succinctly put it in the classic Analyze That, a “pussy with teeth”. […]

Horrortoberfest Day 21 – Highway to Hell (1992)

October 21, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

Horrortoberfest Day 19 – Day of the Triffids (1963)

October 19, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

I have seen a lot of crappy 50s and 60s sci-fi horror films in my day. Granted, a fair number of those have also had Tom Servo cracking jokes during […]

Horrortoberfest Day 18 – Nightbreed (1990)

October 18, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

Nightbreed is one of those movies that has always been on the periphery of my interest. Probably because it was sold as more of a generic monster movie that didn’t […]

October 17, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

Horrortoberfest Day 16 – The Broken (2008)

October 16, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

You wanted more evil mirror movies and, by god, you’re getting more evil mirror movies. Although, if I’m being honest, The Broken is less about the mirrors being evil and […]

October 14, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

When I opened up the watch list to suggestions for this year’s horror movies, I was definitely expecting to get some strange ones. Mostly, I assumed I’d be getting some […]

Horrortoberfest Day 13 – Love in the Time of Monsters (2014)

October 13, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

October 12, 2015by jonmastery Leave a comment

Jug Face almost made it onto the list for last year’s Horrortoberfest but it ended up not fitting any of the themes I was doing during the weeks. Since this […]

October 10, 2015by jonmastery 3 Comments
