Texas Chainsaw Massacre" title="Halloween Binge: Texas Chainsaw Massacre" style="float:left;" />Last year when my Halloween Binge came to a close, I decided to wrap it up with a classic – an essential horror film I had never seen before. That was, of course, The Exorcist,… [more]

The House by the Cemetery" title="Halloween Binge: The House by the Cemetery" style="float:left;" />I was planning from the beginning of this Halloween Binge to watch the two films I’d not seen in the highly thought of trifecta of Lucio Fulci horror films. I watched The Beyond last year,… [more]

The Bird With the Crystal Plumage" title="Halloween Binge: The Bird With the Crystal Plumage" style="float:left;" />I was pretty confident I’d have to watch a Dario Argento movie at some point during my Halloween Binge; it was just a matter of which one. The two of his films I’ve seen are… [more]

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Fri, 23 Oct 2015 13:00:15 +0000

Fiend Without a Face" title="Halloween Binge: Fiend Without a Face" style="float:left;" />The next movie I watched for my Halloween Binge came fairly highly recommended. It’s one of those films that generates cultural references, but few people have actually seen. Despite the relative obscurity (especially when compared… [more]

Halloween Binge: Dagon

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Thu, 22 Oct 2015 13:00:33 +0000

Dagon" title="Halloween Binge: Dagon" style="float:left;" />The best parts of last year’s Halloween Binge were the surprises. Movies like Phenomenon and The Return of the Living Dead were all the more exciting for how little I knew about them. They were… [more]

Halloween Binge: City of the Living Dead

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Wed, 21 Oct 2015 13:00:26 +0000

City of the Living Dead" title="Halloween Binge: City of the Living Dead" style="float:left;" />If you’ve paid any attention to my taste in horror you should have seen this coming. For those new here – “Hi, I’m Harry, and I like Italian horror, and Lucio Fulci in particular.” There’s… [more]

Halloween Binge: Goodnight Mommy

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Mon, 19 Oct 2015 20:24:43 +0000

Goodnight Mommy" title="Halloween Binge: Goodnight Mommy" style="float:left;" />Goodnight Mommy was not what I expected. Which isn’t to say I had particularly in depth expectations for the film. The trailer had selected a few choice shots from the film that made me think… [more]

Halloween Binge: The Exorcist

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Fri, 31 Oct 2014 14:00:48 +0000

Most everyone considers The Exorcist the best horror movie ever made. When lists document the “greatest” horror movies in existence, The Exorcist is number one, time and time again. The movie, which came out in… [more]

Halloween Binge: The Beyond

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Thu, 30 Oct 2014 14:00:04 +0000

The Beyond" title="Halloween Binge: The Beyond" style="float:left;" />A manic and kind of terrible Italian horror movie. But also a manic and great horror movie. Lots of eye-gouging. [more]

Halloween Binge: Rosemary’s Baby

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Wed, 29 Oct 2014 14:00:31 +0000

Rosemary’s Baby" title="Halloween Binge: Rosemary’s Baby" style="float:left;" />Wooo. We're getting into real classics at this point in my binge. Filling in some gaps in my viewing with some classics. Will I be annoyingly contrarian? Come find out. [more]

Halloween Binge: Lifeforce

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Tue, 28 Oct 2014 14:00:45 +0000

Lifeforce" title="Halloween Binge: Lifeforce" style="float:left;" />Despite a whole lot of potential and some good scenes this movie kind of blows. It should have been so good, but honestly you could stop this movie after Mathilda May disappears. [more]

Halloween Binge: Hellraiser

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Mon, 27 Oct 2014 14:00:12 +0000

Hellraiser" title="Halloween Binge: Hellraiser" style="float:left;" />As much as I like this movie, and I really did, I have some problems with it. Just a few, but I dwell on them in this article. Not trying to be contrarian I swear. Just my honest picky response! [more]

Halloween Binge: Phenomena

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Sun, 26 Oct 2014 14:00:49 +0000

Phenomena" title="Halloween Binge: Phenomena" style="float:left;" />A crazy Dario Argento movie starring a young Jennifer Connelly. This was a goody. Lots of craziness and tension and great filmmaking. [more]

Halloween Binge: Return of the Living Dead

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Sat, 25 Oct 2014 14:00:59 +0000

Return of the Living Dead" title="Halloween Binge: Return of the Living Dead" style="float:left;" />An awesome zombie flick with nonsensical zombies, loads of camp, unnecessary nudity, punks, great needle drops, and, most importantly, "braaains." [more]

Halloween Binge: Genocide

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Fri, 24 Oct 2014 14:00:19 +0000

Genocide" title="Halloween Binge: Genocide" style="float:left;" />Genocide is a bleak, nihilistic, Japanese horror film with killer bugs. It's also not so secretly about war time atrocities. Like you do. [more]

Halloween Binge: Cannibal Holocaust

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Thu, 23 Oct 2014 14:00:47 +0000

Cannibal Holocaust" title="Halloween Binge: Cannibal Holocaust" style="float:left;" />Cannibal Holocaust is one of the more controversial horror movies ever made. Filled with sketchy content and upsetting gore, it's a dark Halloween viewing indeed. [more]

Harry Edmundson-Cornell — Wed, 22 Oct 2014 14:00:42 +0000

House " title="Halloween Binge: House " style="float:left;" />First up in my flood of Halloween themed articles: the insane Japanese horror movie House . It's got magic cats, cannibalism, and crazy hand drawn FX. [more]
