I probably should be doing about 50 other things at this very moment, but I saw this great top-50 list today and was inspired it to immediately answer it. I made my list very, very quickly, so in plenty of ways it’s the most honest form a list like this could ever arrive in. While the numbering is fairly [...]

Posted: October 13, 2011 in 31 Flavors Of Horror, Action., Horror, Monsters, Movies (D), WerewolvesSo I don’t think it’s too drastic to call Dog Soldiers the best werewolf movie of the new century. It may not even be much of a compliment: The competition for the title is pretty sickly. Dog Soldiers isn’t a great werewolf movie, but it is a good one, and that alone is hard enough to manage. It’s a [...]
Werewolves, Part One.
Posted: June 25, 2011 in Books, Movies, Movies (N), Movies (S), Movies (W), WerewolvesThe Wolfman was just on TCM. What a fantastic way to lead off a Saturday morning! Anyway it reminded me of this piece I wrote, all the way back in 2008, which remains one of the better things I’ve uploaded to the internet thus far. But it hasn’t appeared on my own website, until now… A [...]
Some reading from the archives: Werewolf Slumber Party! Werewolf Plagiarism! It was a werewolf kind of a day, apparently.
13 Horror Movies Everyone Should See.
Posted: October 28, 2010 in Aliens, Ghosts, Horror, Monsters, Movies, Sharks, Vampires, Werewolves, ZombiesThirteen is just a start. Believe me, there are plenty of horror movies I can happily recommend to you, but I’m going to limit myself to writing about the basics, the barest of necessities. This isn’t even necessarily a list of my own personal favorites, although there is a fair amount of overlap. For the purposes of this article, [...]
The United Monster Talent Agency.
Posted: October 20, 2010 in Aliens, Movies, Parodies, Pretty Girls, Short Films., Tributes, Vampires, WerewolvesIt’s October, which means it’s high time for me to start spotlighting all of the fun Halloween-related videos and movies that you can enjoy. Start with this short film directed by Greg Nicotero, one of the most prominent special-make-up-effects artists in the modern film industry, whose upcoming project is the zombie make-up for AMC’s [...]
On DVD & Blu-Ray today… A movie that I liked happened, and nobody went to see it. It’s not a great feeling. Now, all that pre-release talk of resurrecting the Universal monsters seems to have subsided, and that’s a turn of events that just plain doesn’t work for me. I’m not so egotistical as to think that my [...]
I write about werewolves again, then keep on writing.
Posted: April 12, 2010 in Comics, Movies, Opinions, Tributes, TV, WerewolvesI’ve been pretty industrious in the past 24 hours. I’d like to share with you some of the fruits of my labor, though some aren’t even available on the internet (if you can believe that!) and you’ll have to wait for those. But the most exciting thing I put up by far is my [...]
Werewolf Slumber Party!
Posted: February 11, 2010 in Comics, Drawings, Movies, Music, Tributes, TV, WerewolvesThis is it, people. Tomorrow I finally get to see my most awaited movie of the last couple years. My expectations are pretty reasonable for The Wolfman, actually — I’m just excited to see Rick Baker monster designs in a werewolf flick again. To celebrate the occasion, I compiled all the werewolf-related articles, essays, [...]
