Recently on the Twitters a mini debate began to brew concerning the presence of female horror bloggers and journalists. While the details are sketchy, due in no small part to my passing participation and tendency to forget my name at times, the overall consensus was that horror journalism, be it on a reputable news site [...]

Zombies of Mass Destruction
Director: Kevin Hamedani
Year: 2009
Country: USA
Zombie comedies, heretofore known as “zombedy,” are all the rage these days. Zombieland tore up the box office and resulted in a weird cult of Woody Harrelson (I still say his best role is as Woody on Cheers), while Doghouse, though relatively unseen outside the festival circuit and [...]

Wait, what?
Several days ago a debate raged on for approximately fifteen minutes on the Twitters over the destruction of vampire mythology in the Twilight series. This seemingly grievous sin, which seemed to be focused heavily on vampires that can traipse freely under the warm glow of the sun and, well, sparkle, is apparently worthy [...]

troll2
Director: Michael Stephenson
Year: 2009
Country: USA

Norse mythology never gets treated fairly. My biggest complaint, however, is with the fact that Mjollnir looks nothing like it should. Apparently the posting of a picture and a couple of jabs at the trailer for being cheesy (which it is in spades) resulted in the animation director getting all pissy and unable to comprehend [...]

Which really comes as no surprise to me, seeing as how Thomas Disch (RIP) created it and that man was a demented genius. Anyone with a fear of clowns should avert their eyes. Cartoon-y horror at its finest.

saw 6
Director: Kevin Greutert
Year: 2009
Country: USA
I have yet to review any of the Saw films. As a whole I do not like them, as I feel they do nothing more than endlessly recycle the same basic premise without ever really accomplishing anything new. The stories being told in between the violence and gore get thinner [...]
