Let’s Watch Horror Movies…Christmas Edition

I love horror movies! I love to live-tweet them too! Once a month, precious, I tweet all my thoughts and feelings as I watch a scary movie. I didn't know how much fun it would be. To be able to watch it with others makes it more fun. Through Twitter, we can connect over our love of the creepy. Last month my horror friend Andrea and I had a BLAST live-tweeting the movie Lights Out. Neither one of us had seen it, so it was a lot of great first reactions. I haven't been so scared watching a movie in a loooooong time. I held my breath through most of it, but you bette[...]

Let’s Watch a #Horror Movie…The Cabin in the Woods

That's right! My choice of movie to live-tweet this month is one of Amy's (one of our Midnighters) favorites!   I watched The Cabin in the Woods because Amy told me to. Basically. And why wouldn't I want to? This 2012 horror/comedy was written by Drew Goddard and Joss Whedon, directed by Drew Goddard and produced by Joss Whedon. Dude. This movie made me laugh, cringe, and sent my horror-loving heart all aflutter. SO LET'S WATCH IT TOGETHER! We'll follow five college friends... As they go on a little vacation to a deserted cabin deep in the woods. It[...]

Let’s Watch a #Horror Movie…The Possession

It's that time again, where I announce the horror movie I will live tweet for this month! Because if you're like me, you don't have any friends who like to have their minds assaulted by creepiness. And this is wrong. So let's watch... The Possession Meet Clyde and Stephanie. Formerly married, now living apart and sharing custody of their two daughters. Emily "Em" and Hannah. Who are not so thrilled to be staying with their dad. At a garage sale, Em finds a wooden box with Hebrew writing. She's drawn to it. She wants it. Her father buys it for her. But t[...]

Let’s Watch a Horror Movie…Pan’s Labyrinth

Happy July, horror movie watching friends! It's time to announce the movie I will be live-tweeting this month. I hope everyone can join me and add your tweets to the mix. This one is a good one. YES! Guillermo del Toro's dark fantasy! Dark fantasy, Kathy? I thought we were going to watch a horror movie?!!?!?! Don't worry, there is plenty of creepiness in this show to qualify it as a horror flick. First, meet Ofelia. She's special. This is her story of how she must fight to save herself and her mother. Her imagination takes her on a journey of self-discov[...]

The Perfect Horror Movie Buddy…A Girl and Her Dream

This is usually the post where I announce the scary movie I will live-tweet this month. Unfortunately, horror movie friends, because of vacations and children's desires to BE INVOLVED IN ACTIVITIES... ugh, kids... I will not be live-tweeting a movie this month. *hands out tissues* I know. I know. I have become incredibly attached to my live-tweets. I have so much fun, sharing my thoughts on the strange, unusual, and terribly creepy movies with everyone. Thinking of you all out there, smiling (or cringing) as you read my tweets makes me a happy gal. If yo[...]

Let’s Watch a #Horror Movie…MAMA

I love ghosts, truly my favorite part of the world of horror. They fascinate me. So for this month's movie I chose one of my favorite ghost stories. Co-written and directed by Andres Mushietti, with the fantastic Guillermo del Toro as executive producer, Mama hit theaters in 2013. Dude. I went. And I was the only one in the theater. Empty theaters are creepy...in case you wondered. The shadow play from the flickering light caused me to glance into the space around me more than once. I had a blast! So, the movie! Let's watch it, shall we? TOGETHER! YES.[...]

Let’s Watch a Horror Movie…Leprechaun

Hello, horror lovers. It's me, your scary movie buddy. I love watching shows that send me racing up the stairs at the end of the day, that cause me to leap into bed to avoid the reaching claws of whatever lurks underneath. And I am happy to watch by myself, because I have to, because no one here has any interest. But I sure do love sharing the experience with friends, with those who enjoy the creepy as much as I do. Which is why once a month I live-tweet a horror movie. And a few of us are having a super good time. It is horror/haunted houses month here at The[...]

Let’s Watch a Horror Movie… My Bloody Valentine

It's February the month of hearts and candy and love... or we could watch a horror movie. If you're like me, when it comes to scary, the list of people willing to share the experience is slim, or none. So I am bringing us together on Twitter for a live-tweet each month. In honor of Valentine's Day, I have chosen the slasher film My Bloody Valentine from 1981. I have not seen this! And, even though I got the DVD in the mail, I will resist watching until the live-tweet. *pets DVD case* I will resist! So if you want to see some in the moment Kathy reactions to th[...]
