Feature Lists

I’ve been a horror fan for as long as I can remember, and admittedly sometimes today’s technology actually improves a few of these old school horror reboots. While I cherish the originals, I appreciate the remakes of Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Dawn of the Dead. Now, they can’t all be winners as The Fog and The Amityville Horror lacked that …

There’s nothing quite like the sound of a baby cryin’! That beautiful high pitched squeal, the ability to howl for minutes on end without even taking a breath. It’s what I imagine it would sound like if God were to play a harp. Aaaah the sound of a crying baby, music to my ears. Ever hear anyone say that??? Yeah me neither. It’s the sound I imagine …

For ghosts, ghouls, vampires, and other things that go bump in the night, the rich and strange landscape of the American Southeast provides an abundance of creepy hiding places. Which brings us to the literary/cinematic genre known as “Southern Gothic,” a vein of storytelling that, like good art, is hard to define, but you do know it when you see …

Urban legends have been a part of our society since the first man crawled from the primordial soup. It’s only natural that we create things, no matter how outlandish or asinine, to explain things we can’t (or don’t) understand. And that, folks, is how organized religion came to pass. But we’re not here to talk about that, no, we’re here …

Stabbings. Stranglings. Ghastly dolls. Anxiety-fueled phone calls. Bludgeonings. Chases. Unseen terrors. There’s no single recipe to cook up a horrifying opening scene. Some tease you with scares before blasting you with the horror. Others gut punch you with the horror right away. The greatest opening scenes do have one thing in common. They make a promise to the viewer. This …

The last of our list rounding off a smattering of sick and repulsively get under your skin films for underground horror enthusiasts. Titles will get added as discovered.

1. The Masque of the Red Death (1964) Vincent Price, Tarot, Satan, and the Plague. Yes, yes, yes—and yes, this movie is awesome. If there was any color to represent the genre, red would be it; black, maybe, but I think we can agree blood is the cornerstone of our appeal. Red is also my favorite color, so there you …

While reflecting on 2017, I still maintain the most horrifying screen experiences occurred while watching the news. However, there were some sick and brilliantly crafted horror films released this year, and it seems the genre is starting to finally receive the credit it has deserved all along. The films on this list are not necessarily solidified in order of favoritism …

One of the great powers of horror movies is atmosphere; setting the right mood can be a crucial part of selling the scare. Because of that, much of these movies take place at night or in darkness. I am a firm believer that something is one million times scarier if you can see it in full, hard light. So: the …

1- Carrie (1976) King’s first novel and first film adaptation: this is the one that started it all. And what a start it was; this movie gave us all a taste of what would become the staples of Stephen King movies. It features a regular girl with supernatural powers, a crazy, creepy mother, and lots of gore and mayhem. It …

List will be updated as new sick discoveries are made. If a film for some reason fails to meet the criteria it will be removed and placed among standard horror.

There are a few categories of quality that our beloved horror films can fall into. The classic, and most recognised, is the horror film that has you hiding behind your hands/ cushion/ sofa; one that terrifies you and might even linger in your mind as you attempt to sleep. Then there is the lighter, comedy horror. This category can often …

Being a horror fan, it goes with the territory that there’s a high likelihood of watching that one film that pushes the boundaries of typical horror cinema and makes you squirm more than you ever have before.
