What can I say about Sybil Danning that
would be a surprise to anyone? Gorgeous, talented, fun
to watch. In whatever project she appears, Danning is always completely committed. Watching her as I have over the years, I see not only chops, but a healthy sense of humor as well. I feel like she “gets it,” if that makes any sense. (And after this interview, I’m even more of a fan.) Courtesy of friend Fred Olen Ray, Danning joins all the vampire fun on THE LAIR in this third season. SEAN ABLEY: ...

No music browsing or reading could possibly prepare me for what ON BLACK WINGS offers. Which in ...

He is most frightening because he stands in plain view as a family man and local house salesman promoting family life. The opening scene sets the tone as O’Quinn leaves his house for work, ...

A fast-moving, exciting thrill ride that builds to a flat-out apocalyptic conclusion, this CRAZIES also has a healthy respect for the George A.

Even among horror fans, some people just don’t
understand the appeal of a Takashi Miike film. It
may be his genre ambiguity; you could hardly argue the yakuza-and-cops story DEAD OR ALIVE as horror, and VISITOR Q and HAPPINESS OF THE KATAKURIS play as inexplicably broad satires. If Miike was more respected by mainstream critics, his work might be considered alongside modern surrealists like David Lynch or Alejandro Jodorowsky, but the emphasis on graphic violence keeps him in horror company even ...

And the biggest bunch of BS is that horror and spirituality are incompatible. ...
