In 1974 director Bob Clark forever changed the horror landscape with the release of Black Christmas. What often gets overlooked is that a few months prior he released an equally good but lesser appreciated horror entry with Dead of Night (aka Deathdream). In this film, a young soldier named Andy is shot and killed in Vietnam but shortly after his f...
Depending on where you stand on the gun culture here in the United States it’s either out of control or a necessity in case the British return. This Canadian flick nails it either way as a group of hunters find themselves in an unexpected firefight with another group across a river. They walk away mostly unscathed after killing one of “the enemy,” ...

This delightful kids movie mo...
Welcome to the greatest movie ever made about sculling. The story is based on the life of Canadian sculling champion Ned Hanlan who was praised for his highly efficient stroke. As we all know if you want to be a world champion sculler it’s very important to have an efficient stroke. If for some odd reason you’re not crazy about sculling you should ...
This next choice is a cheat of sorts because I haven’t actually seen the movie, but Rob said I couldn’t pick a movie I’ve previously written about which meant I wasn’t allowed to choose Beyond the 7th Door. So I’m doing the next best thing and choosing a film written and directed by B.D. Benedikt and starring Lazar Rockwood — the same iconic duo be...
For the longest time, I was trying to remember the name of a movie I watched a lot in my childhood. I couldn’t remember the plot of the movie, but I remembered a scene in which an eyeball appears in a hand and it always creeped me out. I eventually figured out that movie was The Gate, and it’s awesome. A group of kids left at home alone accidentall...
Dr. Linden (Terry O’Quinn) is a pediatrician known for having a life-size anatomical doll in the office he uses like an immobile ventriloquist dummy to teach kids about their bodies and behaviors. The doctor’s own children respect and fear Pin’s wisdom, but while Ursula grows up and out of believing he’s real Leon knows otherwise… and his conversat...
