If you know one thing about me, it's that I love horror, and I love Iron Maiden. I love them so much, that for the very first "A-Thon" on THS, I did Iron Maiden. The one-time zombie, now lord of time and space, Eddie, is their mascot. He's made plenty of different appearances over the years. His
In the annals of history, there's one thing that can always seem to scare people. No, it's not the year 2020. It's perception. What you perceive as real or fake is always the most terrifying. Whether it's that shadow across the room on a dark night or it's the effect that a filmmaker uses in a
Horror in the 1990's was a strange beast. You had the last gasps of franchises like A Nightmare On Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Halloween, and the other famous movies. You also had new beginnings like Scream, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and Final Destination. Those last two might not be as
It might have come out all the way in 2007, but the book How To Survive A Horror Movie by Seth Grahame Smith was hugely formative on my love of horror films. Let's flashback to my 7th grade year. I didn't know jack shit about horror movies. I was terrified of The Exorcist after my sister made me
Yes, the gang is back from the first Babysitter film. That's not quite the spoiler that you'd think it is. As part of the first Friday in THS Fright-A-Thon, we're going over a new horror film. The Babysitter: Killer Queen just recently came out on Netflix. The first film, The Babysitter was a
The history of movie vampires stretches back almost as long as cinema itself. THS's Fright-A-Thon is built upon these ideals and the want for more great horror content. If 2020 is going to be the year we all stayed in (I sure hope so for some of my readers at least), then we'll all need some good
I'm a relatively newcomer to the world of King Diamond. Like I've mentioned before I have a pretty good mentor on all things metal and he's shown me some bands that I love just as much as all my favorites. King Diamond is one of those performers that just slipped through the cracks for me. In my
I'll just start off with this. Michael Mann's Manhunter is one of the most ripped-off, copied, and influential films of the past 30 years. After it's release in 1986, the television genre for serial killers, detectives, and anything in between on that spectrum has exploded. Most people think about
It's been quite a long time since we've had a Star Wars movie in theaters. In the time between Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and now, we've had a revolution in entertainment in streaming and Star Wars moved from controlling the theater to a fixture in our living rooms with shows like The
The Sheep Detectives is a towering testament of how powerful animated stories can be when done right. A genuine crowdpleaser, the film is sure to warm and break your heart, wrestling with richly textured explorations of death and grief, lost and found families, and the necessity of memory.
