A savage, revisionist take on zombie lore that's a perfect example of horror-comedy done right.

A combination of autobiography, folklore, and fantastical elements set in the most mundane of locales results in a film with limited means that’s almost elegant in its uncomplicated approach to a very disturbing story.

Ghoulishly-realized and imbued with an obvious love of horror, ParaNorman is a macabre and poignant cry for acceptance and a rebuke of bullying.

Cheesy. Ludicrous. Offensive. These three adjectives can be applied to practically any action film of the 1980’s, but Remo Williams deserves a special place amongst the glut of whiz-bang pyrotechnic wonders Hollywood produced at the time.

A fine horror-thriller featuring a towering performance by Terry O'Quinn.

Attention URTH-lings! The greatest of all bad Christmas movies gets the Bent Wookiee treatment!

Watch out for that cranberry sauce! Happy Turkey Day! Here's a demented and rare Thanksgiving-themed horror comin' at ya during the last vestiges of the 80s slasher boom. 

I watched the entire Children of the Corn series for you. You're welcome. 

AN ALL-BIRD CAST?! This month, we cover a genuine, bonafide oddity that somehow survived for over 70 years. Winner of a special Oscar, Bill and Coo spins a simple tale of love and bravery. The only difference is...everyone's a bird!!!
