See the elusive girl geek as she acts in local theater! Watch as she writes manuscripts, fanfiction, and anything else that come out of her deranged mind! Gawp as she reviews movies that normal women would run from in terror! GIRL GEEK!
Confused by Hellraiser's denizens, the Cenobites? Well have I found a reviewer for you!
Mr. H has horror movie news, reviews, and most notably, short videos explaining the origins and stories behind series and characters like Hellraiser, Alien, Godzilla, and other monsters. Here are a few of my favs.
I have a long-form horror story mega-post coming later this month, but here's a few little guys you may also enjoy. Some are links, some are pics. Enjoy!
Ruby enjoyed Nightmare on Elm Street, but her attention wavered in spots. Poltergeist is a bit more fast-paced, so I think she'll enjoy it more. Plus she's a Spielberg fan.

So Poltergeist was a marked improvement for Ruby. She said it was scarier, and she seemed more interested. I get it, there's other kids, and the story is more straight forward. Plus the effects are gory, and very up front.
There were a few moments we had to stop and explain: At the beginning I jumped in and advised about the 'end of the broadcast day' announcement and subsequent static. We also had to advise that, no, it was NOT good CGI, since there was no CGI (or very limited) in 1982.
There were a few moments that the adults traded looks: the face tearing off, the attempted rape of Diane by the poltergeist, and the real skeletons coming out of the ground. Ruby was freaked out, but took everything in stride. We ended the night watching some funny dog compilations, and discussing what she thought about the movie.
A bunch of recommendations about awesome horror stuff, horror facts, documentaries, and other cool resources! If you can't get spooked, or want to learn something, these are the lists and videos for you.
