The Omen (1976)
May 29, 2019

I joke with the people who know and love me by calling this film my namesake. After all, it is right? (My first name being Damien) Rewatching this classic horror film was amazing. I saw so many subtle influences on later films through the decades.

Martyrs
May 26, 2019

Episode one of twenty in my "Horror Rewatch!" series. Gore and blood are the hallmark of horror films. In this case, they are definitely present. In fact, this film fits nicely into the category of films that has been emerging in past decades called “b...

Cashback
May 16, 2019

Finally laid the horror genre down in favor of a drama. That's my direction here on the podcast for a while. But here we are in the grocery store where time stops and a young man undresses women. Sound like your cup of tea? Good stuff!

What I’ve Been Watching: Tideland, Long Shot, Damien: Omen II, Red Dragon
May 11, 2019

Tideland was an amazing film that may not appeal to every horror fan. It's more like a Wizard of Oz than a Damien: Omen II. I hope you enjoy my reflections on these 4 films I watched last week. Stay tuned for more to come, Lord willing.

I loved this horror movie. A brief intro - Here we have a lesbian couple getting away into the woods to celebrate their one year anniversary. They have access to a large cabin home that has been in Jackie’s family. In fact,

The Others
April 30, 2019

Creepy wood carvings open the mood during the credits. Creepy victorian house 1945. Nicole Kidman is screaming in bed. Nightmare perhaps? The servants come to the door. Hey are old and one is young but mute. She is very demanding as their boss.

Angel Heart (1987)
April 27, 2019

Robert DeNiro comes on screen very quickly. His fingernails are sharpened like demonic claws. There is another religious theme that shows itself right away, the “name it and claim it” prosperity gospel. This draws us in to this mysterious horror film.

The Curse of La Llorona & The Disappearance of Alice Creed
April 21, 2019

There’s something to be said about both of them so I’m including them in this episode. One is an attempt to cash in on a timeless Mexican legend. The other is a crime horror thriller that chronicles the abduction for ransom of a female character played...

Operation Razorteeth
April 14, 2019

When flesh-eating piranhas are accidentally released into a summer resort's rivers, the guests become their next meal. Listen to my review and commentary.

Pet Sematary (2019)
April 06, 2019

I have observed modern horror includes both remakes of past hits as well as re imaginings. These span from “Friday the 13th” to “The Fly” and beyond. Here we have a remake with a slight re imagining element.
