Most everyone in tune with horror, especially those with a predilection for consuming horror-themed literature have heard of or read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, a mash-up of Jane Austen’s classic novel and, well, zombies.

The top ten things I would rather do than watch Captivity again:
1. Eat haggis….before it’s cooked.
2. Spend three hours pressed between the well-lubricated buttocks of two 600-pound Jamaican women while listening to reggae as sung by the Chipmunks.

My only other mention of it was a rebuttal to something someone said about me in a completely unrelated forum. I don’t like the books because I [...]
So recently the Vault of Horror received an award from Planet of Terror called the Honest Scrap Award. He doesn’t know what it means, and frankly neither do I, but b_sol was kind enough to bestow this award onto I Love Horror and nine other noteworthy horror blogs. Coinciding with this was the creation of [...]
In regards to I Love Horror, “This blog is at the forefront of the battle to end the pussification of vampires, with its biting commentary on Twilight and Stephanie Meyer.” Those kind, albeit slightly misguided words, are courtesy of the fine femme fatale fronting the fantastic blog Monster Land.

Much to the surprise of no one, Owen Gleiberman of Entertainment Weekly has received a lot of negative feedback over his list compiling the top twenty horror films of the past two decades. Instead of simply falling back on the “agree to disagree” stance, he decided to not only openly insult his readers, but contradict [...]
