WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers It’s interesting to think that Lucio Fulci is referred to as the “Godfather of Gore” when I honestly don’t find any of his films, the ones that I’ve seen of course, especially gory. What I did notice however is that he seems to have a fascination with focusing on …
Horror Director – Tobe Hooper
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers It seems that this spook-tacular month is turning into a tribute to directors that found their way on to the video nasties list, Tobe Hooper being one to have only a few in comparison to others but more on that later. What I like about Hooper is that he …
Horror Directors: Dario Argento
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I wonder if people would consider Dario Argento as a “controversial” director as four of his films made the DPP (Director of Public Prosecutions) list of so-called “video-nasties” – including Tenebrae and Inferno which featured in Sections 1 and 2 respectively as well as Suspiria and Deep Red, which …
Horror Directors: Wes Craven
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers So, I think to a lot of people Wes Craven would probably be considered as the King of the Franchise when it comes to horror the fact that he was the director of the first 4 Scream films (I for one think that’s where they should have stopped), all …
Loki AKA Tom Hiddleston

Ornithophobia
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers It’s crazy to think that birds have never been too far when it comes to horror in both films and literature. Take The Birds for example directed by Alfred Hitchcock or The Raven written by Edgar Allen Poe. Even Stephen King used sparrows in Dark Half as a symbol …
Jean Grey AKA Sophie Turner
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’m going to try not to be overly critical of Sophie Turner when it comes to her role as, let’s be accurate, the young Jean Grey but it was hard for me to look on her taking the role approvingly. Obviously I have grown up with Famke Janssen playing …
Music of the Night
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers Listen to the children of the night, what beautiful music they make…or whatever Dracula once said. I don’t know if anyone would consider this as sub-genre of horror but you know what, I’m going to and it’s one that is strangely pleasing to know exists. That sub-genre, my friends, …
Footballers on Film
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers We all remember that 30 seconds of David Beckham in King Arthur right? Well, let’s just say that is the only thing I remember about the film. Unfortunately that didn’t seem to spark off much of a career in the film industry for him but he isn’t the first …
