WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers I had to check before writing this article if these films were originally based on a book, but I think I may have been confusing them with The Haunting of Hill House which is something completely different. Obviously the main question of this article is which is better – …

Daredevil AKA Ben Affleck
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I want this article to act as a reminder that, like Chris Evans with Flame Boy and Captain America, Ben Affleck had pulled on the super-suit prior to becoming Batman. I’m going to be completely honest, I haven’t seen the Daredevil from beginning to end – I always seem …
There’s Something About the Babysitter
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers Depending upon the generation reading this article right now I think there would be two different answers to the question – what/who do you think of when we say babysitter and horror? Some of you, like me, your first thought might be of Laurie Stroud, played by Jamie Lee …
Singer to Actress: Madonna
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I always thought that “Madonna” was a stage name that she had chosen. You know a little like Sting is actually Gordon Sumner or Elton John is Reginald Dwight. In Madonna’s case this is her actual first name and it seems she was named for her mother who was …
Isolation
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I think I have said this several times before in other articles but one of the key tropes for any horror film is isolation! Like the fear of the unknown, the idea of no escape is terrifying. Probably the most common display of this is with the old cabin …

Western European Horror
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers As many of you may be aware, I have already covered a few countries of Central and Western Europe individually – Austria, France and the Netherlands to name a few. Unfortunately, it is a lot harder to find enough films for each of the remaining countries so I felt …
Thor AKA Chris Hemsworth
WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I just wanted to make you all aware that there will be no honorary mentions at the end of this article. These films mentioned here are the only films Chris Hemsworth made before taking on the role of Thor, so you can basically say that the MCU is where …
Piranha 1978 vs 1995
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers Here’s something funny and more specifically something I learned while writing this article and that is that I didn’t realise this remake even existed – only that it was remade in 2010 in 3D. On top of this, and a slightly more interesting fact, is that the original film …
