It’s Boring Playing Rock, Paper, Scissors with Edward Scissorhands

A little while ago I was able to sit down and re-watch Edward Scissorhands. While probably more of a Christmas movie than a Halloween one, I always include it in my All Hallows Eve lists because of its themes and the character of Edward. Whether you consider it one way or another, this modern fairy tale is definitely worth a watch. Continue reading “It’s Boring Playing Rock, Paper, Scissors with Edward Scissorhands”

Evil Unleashed in Suburban Town, Will Anyone Survive?

Monsters, ghosts, ghouls, and a ventriloquist dummy with a Napoleon complex, sounds like a lot of villains for one movie, but all of those exist in the Goosebumps movie that came out this weekend. If you read any of the R.L Stine books or watched any of the shows on tv this movie is a big ol’ ball of nostalgia. Reader beware you’re in for some laughs.

Tim Curry, What Are You Doing Here?

I don’t know about the rest of you, but when I was a kid I used to watch the cartoon Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? and some of the other Scooby-Doo tv shows all the time. There was 13 Ghosts and the multiple meets the episodes where Scooby-Doo and the gang would meet up with celebrities or other tv characters. As I got older I used to watch episodes randomly whenever I saw them airing late at night. Over the years they started making new shows and movies, including the live action ones, and to this day I still have few that I watch every October. My favorite is Scooby-Doo and The Witch’s Ghost, which has the ever wonderful Tim Curry in it. Continue reading “Tim Curry, What Are You Doing Here?”

I Ain’t Afraid of No Clowns

I admit I’m way behind in horror movies. I love them, but I used to only really watch vampire themed horror movies or sort of teen witch themed things. What that means for all of you is that I have loads of traditional horror movies to write about. This week I’ve been reading a creepy carnival short story book, it’s called Carniepunk and I love it so far, I’m definitely going to write about it at a later date so keep your eyes peeled, and thought why don’t I give that IT movie a watch. I’m capitalizing both letters just to make sure it actually looks like a title instead of just a typo of the word it. I know people who are terrified of the movie and of Pennywise so I decided this was definitely a lights on sort of watch. Continue reading “I Ain’t Afraid of No Clowns”

Legends are Now and Forever

Let’s take a trip back in time, to 1985, the time of Legend. This happens to be one of my favorite movies and has been for many, many years. It was directed by Ridley Scott and stars a very young Tom Cruise, Mia Sara, and Tim Curry, to name a few. It’s a beautiful fairytale to begin all Legends. I shall tell you about this movie, trying not to give out to many spoilers, I’d rather you see it for yourself. It begins: Continue reading “Legends are Now and Forever”
