Hello, is there anyone out there?

Hello. Good day. Howdy, hello.  I haven't seen this place in a while and just felt like hopping on for no reason what so ever. Things are crazy and I have had no time to think, let alone write. Come to think of it, I have a small audience on here, so I'm sure no one has missed me. But here I am, open to typing on the spot, wanting to catch up on all the goings on and talk about horror movies, just like the old days. There's no schedule- because I can't keep up- but there is stories. I think what is most important these days is to just be and that's what I plan to do; be.  So, I have been a gore hungry monster over 80's horror schlop forever and a day, but my latest obsession is made for T.V horror films. Not all of them are necessarily "made of T.V" but they have that "made for T.V feel. Right now, for example I am watching Mikey , a 1992 horror film starring Ashley Laurence from Hellraiser fame, about a kid whose a psychopath and kills off his a

Weird World Wednesday: Coronavirus and Life Update

Hello weirdo's, it's me again. I know that it's been a minute but things have gotten crazy. Believe it or not, though, I have been with you this whole time. Behind the scenes of this space I have created I have stayed active on Instagram, maintained subtle upkeep of the blog itself and, of course, watching some grade A horror movies.  Besides that, a lot has happened since my last post and I thought that there is no time like now to check back in with  my little place of horror. Since last we chat I have started a new job, been diagnosed with a form of IBD, and am now faced with pandemic and quarantine. It's stressful times we live in folks and there is no time like the present to purge these feelings of doom. In the midst of all these new challenges in not only my life but the lives of everyone within my reach, there have been movies to calm my nerves. As I mentioned before, I use these films as an escape. A form of comfort when days grow tough. Before we get to the te

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood Review

Happy FearStyle Friday everyone! I have a review for you on the excellent new Tarentino movie Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. I haven't posted anything this week and let me tell y'all, it has been a week. Between job interviews and regular errand running I've managed to squeeze in some mask making for the horror wreathes (see last post for more info) and going to an early showing of IT Chapter 2. So I got this post to make up for it. Also, be sure to stick around for a IT Chapter 2 review, I can't wait to get it ready for you (it rhymed so you know it's true). Once Upon a Time In Hollywood was an absolute beautiful movie and not at all what I was expecting. Before I get into it, if you haven't seen the movie yet do not read any further. I plan on spoiling the end because it was the best part of the movie. Ok? Ok. The almost three hour movie was an absolute treat for the senses. It really transported me to the 1960s and the summer of love. Not a Gore fest, no

Happy Friday the 13th!!!

Happy Friday the 13th, horror fans and welcome to special FearStyle Friday!!! I know I know, I haven't been on for the last two weeks. Two weeks! I feel so bummed but I have good cause. Life is changing in the best of ways and I haven't forgotten about my loves. So, for right now, until things get more settled, I'm striving to post once a week. Once a week of something awesome. This week, being that it is one of the spookiest days of the year (minus Halloween) I have special treat for you...cookies. That seems odd, right? What would Friday the 13th have to do with cookies? Well, every year on one of the Friday the 13th's my family and I make Jason Voorhees sugar cookies! I am a huge fan of the Friday the 13th movies and of baking. What a better way to combine my loves than by baking little Jason Voorhees mask? I have the steps for you, if you are interested. See more about it on my Instagram page where I will be posting pictures all day long. And binge watching the

Weird Wednesday: Horror Wreaths

Hey everybody, happy to be back once again for Weird Movie Wednesday (without the movie). I have a couple of Coolio things to share today and, as you can see from the title, it has to do with horror wreaths. Before I get into what they are and where you can get them, I have a little news about the state of the blog. I have been super duper busy the last couple of weeks due to some very exciting changes going on in life. To lighten the load a little I've gone back to just posting once a week instead of twice. There might be a FearStyle Friday every once in a while but only if the mood takes me (or if I have a little spare time). For now expect one post a week. I have in the works reviews on Once Upon A Time In Hollywood (which I totally suggest you go and see) and other horror classics. Some oddball ones too, so don't go anywhere because they're coming. Now, onto the wreaths! Do you need some horror decor for your front door? Of course you do! With Halloween just aro

Weird Movie Wednesday: Anthologies Off The Beaten Path

Welcome back to Weird Movie Wednesday. Have you ever wanted to watch a ton of horror movies in the same time it would take you to watch one regular movie? Of course you have and the answer for you is anthologies. Obviously, this concept is not new to any movie goer but I found the Holy Grail of the most awful short horror films ever. Being that my birthday is this Friday I have decided to share them with you. Let's do it this. All Hallows Eve 2  Standing as a sequel to the popular cult favorite All Hallows Eve, the second one proves to be just as entertaining as the first. With the absence of everyone's favorite Art the Clown, the movie is just a run of pretty standard horror tales that don't really stick with you, but deliver good horror fun nonetheless. Chillers 5 Sense's of Fear Brought to you by the Chiller channel, this collection of short horror stories are all about the five senses. I really loved this one. Never skimping on the cheese, Chiller tells an

FearStyle Friday:Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark Movie Review!

Happy FearStyle Friday, everyone. This weeks post is about the film adaptation of Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark. I went to see an early showing of the horror film last week and all I have to say is that I loved it. I felt like it was brilliant in delivering the source material in a fresh way. I won't spoil the events of the film because it is still in theaters (and it was a great theater experience) but I will talk about the things I enjoyed most and the overall atmosphere the movie provided. Scary Stories begins on Halloween night but the terror goes beyond the night of the dead as an ominous presence follows our hero's around their Pennsylvania town. Between the lighting of the film and the look of the characters the movie felt like November in the 60's. The kids cast, in my opinion, perfectly portrayed  outsiders and social misfits and you felt for them as the story went on. All the characters, including the adults, were super believable unlike some other horro
