Experience a 1960′s nightmare that uses what you think you see and hear against you. Truly old school, effective horror.

The Long Good Friday 002

The Long Good Friday is a continuing weekly column that tries to thematically or tangentially link together three varying films that would make one hell of an evening at the home theater. Most of these flicks are readily available from Netflix, Blockbuster or Amazon, and some are even available on demand. This is our attempt at a gateway drug to irresponsible movie-watching.
NOTE: This article contains major video spoilers. Some of these movies will be discussed later as part of the October Horror Feature. There is also a LOT of blood.

Return of the Living Dead

By Ryan Brlecic

You saw Night of the Living Dead, right? Well what if I told you it was all real and that they made the movie to discredit its reality.

Cemetery Man

By Tom Nix

CEMETERY MAN is a movie that needs to be seen to be understood. And maybe not even then. It’s rare for what is otherwise a straight-up horror flick to have pretensions of the metaphysical and the unfortunate nature of true love in human kind. But, that’s what Dario Argento protege Michele Soavi brings to this ridiculous and great movie

Jeepers Creepers

By Tom Nix

For any of you who used to read my online blog almost ten years ago, you may remember an entry about how Jeepers Creepers turned me into a “whiny pussy.” Let me take you through the steps to my destruction
