My Top 20 Horror Films
The Final Girl herself asked last month to submit our top 20 horror films. In no particular order, this is my list (and considering my list apparently made the top 100-with one exception that was in the top 200? Not highly original).

Geez, Reunions Suck
Bloody Reunion is a violent and bloody affair. I assume. From the disc art. And kind of confusing. I think. But I am not sure. It opens with someone’s entire life summed up as “you’re born, get married, have a kid and then kill yourself.” Apparently. I could have missed … Continue Reading Geez, Reunions Suck
I Hate Finals…
I am pretty tired of torture porn, and while I kind of like the film’s premise, the Final is a mess of a film. The Final tells the tale of the oppressed and bullied standing up to the bullies. It is not much deeper than that. We are introduced to … Continue Reading I Hate Finals…
Oh, Hells Bells…
1973’s A Bell From Hell (also known simply as the Bells) starts clearly establishing something about it’s lead Renaud Verley. He is a bit crazy. No, really. He’s told by a psychiatrist that they hope he can now be a productive citizen. He repays the hope by hopping on a … Continue Reading Oh, Hells Bells…

Workin’ The Graveyard Shift
When you see the words “Based on a _____ by Stephen King” you know you have an 85% chance of slogging through crap. Take for example, 1990’s Graveyard Shift. It seems promising, based on the setting. A remote Maine cotton mill next to a really old graveyard? It looks great. … Continue Reading Workin’ The Graveyard Shift
They Are Sick… Just Sick I Tell You!
The Taiwanese horror Film Sick Nurses is pretty straightforward. A doctor and several nurses are selling body parts on the black market. One of the nurses threatens to rat them out and they kill her. But the story is not over, because her spirit comes back to haunt them. And … Continue Reading They Are Sick… Just Sick I Tell You!
Titan AAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!
In 1985, William Malone (who would someday direct the remake of House on Haunted Hill) gave us Creature. It tells the tale of an expedition to Jupiter’s moon Titan. They received a report of a something going wrong at a research colony. One of the events early on is a … Continue Reading Titan AAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!
