31 DAYS OF HORROR 2017

Here we go again, folks. October is just around the corner and as tradition mandates, that means another 31 Days of Horror Blog-a-Thon is about to kick off. Last year, I looked at Hammer horror, a batch of "classics" from Full Moon Entertainment, and an assortment of tales of madness and mayhem. This year, I'll be reviewing films spread across five unique themes, including (almost) the entire horror output from two cult directors. So keep on scrolling down. Feast your eyes on this year's ghoulish offerings.

The work fun kicks off starts Sunday, October 1st. There might not be a review between now and then. September is always a busy non-internet month for me and I have plenty of shit to get done before October rolls around. So if we don't talk between now and then, take care of yourself and stay safe. See you in a week or two. Love you. Get off my lawn.
