It turns out that 2022 was an unexpectedly good year for horror. Expected to be bogged down by isolation horrors, a few real hits made it to the big screen that didn’t come close to bothering with the vogue sub-genre. Scream was a decent return to the franchise and warrants a follow-up, and Jordan Peele delivered once again with the …

It’s that time again to make the 2022 list. I was able to interview a lot of new directors’ writers’ actors’ producers’ artist’s musicians’ singers, and more. I was able to watch some amazing films.

Not long before the passing of Albert Pyun on November 26th, his wife Cynthia had posted an open call on Facebook asking for fans to send him messages during his final days. I hesitated myself, as how can you put into a few words what somebody’s creativity has meant to your life and say goodbye to a man you’ve never …

When I think back on the thirty plus movies and television shows I’ve worked on, one always stands out—a little gem entitled BEWARE CHILDREN AT PLAY. If the title doesn’t ring a bell, it’s that infamous movie where a dozen children are brutally slaughtered on camera. When Troma Films screened Beware’s trailer at the Cannes Film Festival it allegedly inspired …

DON’T is a powerful word. It’s one of the first commands we’re taught as kids, keeping us from sticking our tiny fingers into electrical sockets, or playing with knives.
