Time to announce this month's live-tweet choice, so I'm heading back to Shudder and one of their newest releases La Llorona. (Do not confuse this with the 2019 movie The Curse of La Llorona, which I enjoyed, though not one of my favorites.) Get ready, it's almost time for... I'm excited! The poster for the 2019 film La Llorona Written and directed by Jayro Bustamante, the Spanish film La Llorona played at film festivals around the world. This award winning movie promises to delve deep into the emotional impact of choices and how they can affe[...]

0 Live-tweeting last month didn't go well, as my wifi decided to...well, die. And I still haven't been able to watch The Room. But that will be fixed next week when the wifi people are coming to make everything better. So for this month, let's watch Terrified! A Shudder original, Terrified, written by Juan Pedro Ramos and directed by Demian Rugna, is a 2018 Spanish horror film. Shudder blurb: On an ordinary suburban street in Buenos Aires, voices are heard from kitchen sinks. Bodies are levitating. Evil is here. It is up to a doctor, her colleague,[...]
I fly a decent amount for work now, and it’s one of the few times I can catch up on some of the newer horror flicks, as well as old classics that make their way to in-flight entertainment services. Welcome to another installment of Airplane Movie Reviews. I'd heard a lot of good things about Ready or Not, and for the most part, the movie is a fun, thriller-comedy featuring a great performance by Samara Weaving. But I can't help comparing it to 2011's You're Next, and in that comparison, Ready or Not falls very short. https://youtu.be/ZtYTwUxhAoI Rea[...]
Welcome to February and the announcement of which horror movie I will live-tweet this month. Join me for Satan's Slaves on... I might have said that I received the best Christmas present: Shudder TV! I have scratched the surface of this horror-centered service and am loving every minute. Creepshow is a winner, for sure. But there are so many movies! I decided to scroll through the list to find this month's creepy fun, and came across Satan's Slaves. The title intrigued me. The tag line "She comes back for the last[...]
Happy New Year! With the new year comes more Midnight Society Movie Nights! This month I will be watching and live-tweeting The Witch in the Window! Come join in the fun of... Written and directed by Andy Mitton, The Witch in the Window released in November of 2018, and I haven't seen it. BUT I GOT SHUDDER TV FOR CHRISTMAS! I haven't had time to delve into the wonders of creepy that this will allow me, but I shall soon. SOOOOON! When I do, I'm going to enjoy all the horror and share it with you, because I'm nice that way. Horror friends are[...]
Welcome to November! For all those who will be Nano-ing, you might need a break by the end of the month. For everyone else, you also need a night of horror fun. So join me in my live-tweet of Brightburn for... This movie directed by David Yarovesky and written by Brian and Mark Gunn hit theaters earlier this year and gives us a different take on the superhero genre...an anti-superhero, if you will. I watched many Brightburn trailers as I haunted the theater last winter and spring. At first, I was intrigued, but wasn't sure I needed to see it.[...]
I fly a decent amount for work now, and it's one of the few times I can catch up on some of the newer horror flicks, as well as old classics that make their way to in-flight entertainment services. Welcome to another installment of Airplane Movie Reviews. My excitement for a new Child's Play film immediately dissipated when I found out that not only would this new Child's Play be a reboot, but it would not involve series creator Don Mancini, or the legendary voice of Chucky, Brad Dourif. I had absolutely no intention of ever seeing this film. But being trapped o[...]
Time to announce that I'll be live-tweeting The Autopsy of Jane Doe for September's... It's everyone's favorite night! I know I have fun. EVERYONE SHALL HAVE FUN. *casts spell* When the time came to post my decision for the movie of the month, I dragged my finger down the spines of my collection of scary DVDs, and nothing screamed for my attention. Sure, many I love, many I have seen numerous times, many I will watch again. But I wanted something I hadn't seen, to disappear into a new story. To escape. I want to watch and be able to react without knowing what[...]
Welcome to August, and a new month means a new live-tweet with me! Let's watch the 2019 version of Pet Sematary for... Written by Jeff Buhler and directed by Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer, Pet Sematary, a second adaptation of Stephen King's 1983 novel, hit theaters earlier this year. If you read my last post, you know I wasn't going to go. Then I did. And I loved it. A tale of grief, desperation, and family as Louis fights for the life of his daughter. Death, a bit of murder, a little grave robbing, and plenty of creepy have me excited to[...]
Pet Sematary. What a journey this story has been on, an evolution in a sense. Back in 1983 Stephen King's book entered the world. King says it's the scariest book he's written, because 'what if' is the scariest thing, especially when you're a parent and the 'what if' is the death of your child. When a truck strikes down small, baby-faced Gage, Louis can fix it, he can bring back his son because he knows a secret, a terrible secret. A tale of grief, of desperation, of being haunted by the past, of your mistakes, the book gives us a deep look i[...]
