The Blog is currently on hiatus. But starting in January, planning to make some changes, posting less horror movie revies and attempting more pieces on horror in general.

For now though, those interested can find my Blog here.

Time booked off in May next year for @dcadundee.bsky.social #Dundead festival.

Now, just need to get the tickets when on sale...or can I put down a deposit on my favourite seat?

Mentally, today is not going well.

That is all.

Loved seeing this @dcadundee.bsky.social last night. I'd seen clips before but had never seen the film as a whole, but it looked sensational on the cinema screen and the newly commisioned score from Andrew Wasylyk and Tommy Perman was terrific.

A superb way to end the DCA #Dundead Halloween season.

For personal reasons, the Blog will be on hiatus for the rest of the year.

Rewatching the horror classic The Haunting, based on Shirley Jackson's The Haunting Of Hill House.

It's a good time to recall my favourite ghost stories...

Five Favourite Ghost Stories
I’ve said it before, but if I had to choose my favourite subgenre of horror it is the ghost story. At its best, a good one has great characters, a compelling story, a good atmosphere and a bu…

Shown @dcadundee.bsky.social with the screening of Evilspeak, The Nightwalker is an atmospheric short, the work of Mark Reyes, who stars, writes and directs. It plays like an extended trailer for a longer film, which I would like to see if Reyes were to make it.

I can't say Evilspeak is a good film. There are many things wrong with it. Aspects have not aged too well either.

But that said, this variation of Carrie, is enjoyably nasty.

Looked great on a cinema screen, being shown from an old VHS tape.

Made in 1959, Yesterday's Enemy was made by Hammer. It may get lost among their films due to the success of their Gothic Horrors, but it's an absorbing, brutal and thoughtful film about the decisions made during war.

About to start on Film4+1 if you want to see it.

Before the film…

Person next to me: “how scary can it be!”

After the film…

Person: “Feck me!!”

The Descent, terrifying audiences for 20 years.
