Amidst the peeler

Jersey
For Uncle Larry
Jersey?
What’s so great about Jersey?
It’s not the psychedelic lights of the ferris wheel.
It’s not the Cherrystone clams.
It’s not the Tiki Bar.
Faith
Your cold, downward glance
Is my much needed warmth
I see your embrace
Though it’s Frozen and stark
31 days of horror: The Haunted House
Ok, first off, since I missed Oct. 5, we will remember the late Donald Pleasence of the Halloween franchise, as it would have been his 100th birthday. No great monster is without his equally legendary foe. Just as Dracula had Van Helsing, and Frankenstein’s monster had, appropriately so, Frankenstein, so Michael Myers had the inimitable Dr. Loomis. Ever questioned, ever correct in his theories -ever remembered for a line that is famous in any horror fan’s list of memorable moments. See below. Rest in peace, Dr. Loomis. Haddonfield and all of us are less safe out here without you.
Now…onto today…
31 days of horror: The scariest movie moment of all time
Carol, that is not Avon calling.
I do not have a lot of time today to do a long post, but today i want to share what I without question believe is the scariest moment ever in a movie.
31 days of horror: Chics rule
One of the things I both love and hate about horror movies is how women are treated and viewed. Often they are the dopes who trip themselves into a chainsaw after flashing all they’ve got for the camera. But just as often, they are kick-ass, brave, hilarious and occasionally sucked into a television.
Here are my top ten horror movie chics. Note I am not including science fiction otherwise Go Sigourney Weaver!
31 days of horror: Children shouldn’t play with dead things
Would you settle for 30? Otherwise I promise to post something on Nov. 1 to make up for my lapse yesterday.
Inspired by Rob Adams’ project 365, in which he has committed to write every day for an entire year, (I am in awe at the dedication), I’ve decided to try to write something horror related for the entire month. (Try being the key word).
While I am not planning to do this in order of importance, I thought it would make sense to start where it all began. Technically, that could be Halloween, but even more so than that, and that’s a whole other post, one of my earliest memories of horror was a cheesy 70’s movie by anyone’s standards, including me.
