Vintage Magazine: Famous Monsters of Filmland, Vol. 1, No. 1 (Pg. 14 - 30)

Continuing from where we left off with Famous Monsters, this section contains some stories and more cool film info. Later today I'll be sharing our latest podcast episode too, hopefully. Provided I can finish the editing in time!

Netflix/Hulu Instant Horror Watch 2016

It's that time of year again. The Fog rolls in on your dvd shelf, eery Carpenter tunes playing as it awaits Halloween, while the echoes of 'Trick 'R Treat' can almost be heard outside your front door, and The Thing becomes Ravenous for Popcorn...yet, at the same time you wonder why these film references I just made seem to be disproportionately John Carpenter titles and a few other random titles thrown in. It's like this game is Child's Play, a veritable Witches of Eastwick...

Okay, that last one didn't make sense at all, even as a play on words. Anyway, this October I decided to not only post the instant watch list on time (for once), but mix it with some Hulu for variety. Alas and alack, it's mainly because Netflix really didn't roll out with much for horror this October...and the proportion of films I actually wanted to watch that I hadn't seen...well, this just seemed to be a little bit less painful. So, without further ado, the list begins...

1st. - The Rite

2nd. - The Silence of the Lambs

3rd. Most Likely toDie

4th. Hollows Grove

5th. Dead Set (this one is actually a show, but it's 5 episodes, boiling it down to the length of one film. Plus, it's awesome.)

6th. The Lodge

7th. Para Elisa

8th. 2001 Maniacs

9th. The Babadook

10th. Cujo

11th. Would You Rather

12th. All Hallows Eve: October 30th

13th. Stung

14th. Offpsring

15th. Curve

16th. Poor Pretty Eddie

17th. The Damned

18th. Beneath (2007)

19th. The Veil

20th. Occupant

21st. Final Girl

22nd. Stranded

23rd. Deformed Monsters

24th. Comforting Skin

25th. The House at the End of Time

26th. Witching & Bitching

27th. Out of the Dark

28th. Castle Freak

29th. The Host

30th. The Fury

31st. Jaws

Netflix in October: Must-Watch Instants

So, sometimes I think chugging through the list of films on Netflix can be a bit tiring. There's a huge selection of good movies, but there's an even bigger one of absolutely terrible films that should be sealed in a cement block filed at a hidden warehouse below the ocean.

For those of you, anxious to get into the Halloween spirit, here's a list of movies starting today on the 5th to last you until the 31st of October, one for each day. Rest assured, I don't suggest them unless I think they're worth watching. You can mix up the order all you like, this is just how I personally think I'm going to do it this year.

Oct. 5: Tucker & Dale vs. Evil
Oct. 6: Session 9
