A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME:







I've always loved to read. My favorites were always the bizarre, the scary, the unreal. Writers like the recently departed Ray Bradbury were my absolute heroes and I wanted to be a writer like they were. But time marches on, physical circumstances change and now although I still love books, I can't devour an entire Stephen King novel in a day like I used to. So I watch movies. A LOT of movies. Oh, TV shows too, but I prefer movies.

Why horror? Why not? Horror movies are supposed to be scary but I learned too young that real life is what is truly scary - horror movies actually amuse me. I laugh when things pop out, I predict who dies first, I made up a horror list of rules years before 'Scream' came out and even don't-watch-it-alone movies like The Exorcist makes me giggle.

So, like I said, I watch a whole lot of movies. Good, bad, very bad, or just meh. And I discovered that picking them apart could be even more fun than just watching them. So here we are. 

I am not an official movie critic, hold no titles or certificates in anything, just a good sense of humor and a pretty good idea of what makes a good movie and what makes a movie.... meh. 

So follow along if you will, because hey, I watch 'em so you don't have to - it is my endeavor to save you a lot of time for the real horror wonders and not stare at the credits thinking 'What in the blazes did I just watch?'

I hope you enjoy.
