It’s never easy picking out a top 10 for horror, for me that is. I love so many that it feels like an injustice to put them in order. Alas, my duty is to bring you just that list, so below are my picks for the top 10 horror movies of 2012. Enjoy and run […]
A number of Gothic.net staffers spent the week around New Year’s in Las Vegas. There was no Mayan apocalypse, but we got a little apocalyptic on our own. Besides staying up late, gambling, and drinking unusual mixed beverages, we also went to the DoubleDown to see some band I never heard of. The DoubleDown is […]
The third season of supernatural crime drama Lost Girl is set to kick off on SyFy next week, so now is the perfect time to get caught up on everything that’s already happened in the fae world. Dark fae? Light fae? We’ll get you sorted out with this Lost Girl primer. Lost Girl is basically […]
It wouldn’t be that notable that someone watched Billy Bob Thornton and some other people playing evil Santas. Except it is kind of hilarious that ABC News did this segment on how Santa is the most satirized good guy in horror after clowns. Are clowns not supposed to actually be scary now too? Is this […]
It’s Christmas at Briarcliff and it wouldn’t be complete without an evil Santa. Aptly titled “Unholy Night”, in this episode we see a homicidal maniac dressed in a Santa suit, courtesy of the amazing actor, Ian McShane. He plays Mr. Emerson with his trademark gruff demeanor, gravel voice, ability to dig down deep and a […]
In this weeks installment, “Nor’easter”, there is a storm coming. Spectacular use of foreshadowing filled this episode. The beginning was reminiscent of episode two in the first season, “Home Invasion”, where three people break into the home and reenact a brutal murder that happened in the house. This time it was Teresa and Leo dealing […]
In “Walk with Me,” Walking Dead served up a tasty slice of the past, then unveiled a bizarrely bucolic future and the best aquarium ever. Who is the Governor? What’s Michonne’s relationship with her zombie pets? What do you get for the man who has everything (except his own right hand)? The episode’s “previously on” […]
In what turned out to be one of my most favorite episodes of American Horror Story yet, Tricks and Treats threw down the gauntlet. The episode started with our dear, bloody newlyweds, Leo and Teresa, attempting to hide from Bloody Face. When Teresa cannot pull Leo into a room with her, Bloody Face ends up […]
We start this season of American Horror Story off with, dare I say, more shocks and intensity than characterized season one. Fans were not disappointed. A newlywed couple, is exploring the Briarcliff asylum, a tuberculosis hospital turned Catholic ran sanitarium for the criminally insane, in its present day decaying condition. The couple, Leo and Teresa, […]
Sinister is a disturbing movie that piles horror upon horror, with eerie snuff footage and a brutal soundtrack that builds to an ending that, if not shocking, certainly offers no respite for the viewer. In short, it’s one of the best horror films I’ve seen in years. Sinister concerns a writer, Ellison Oswalt (Ethan Hawke), […]
