Halloween Ends - Movie Review
"What on earth did I just watch?!" Is what I told myself upon leaving the cinema. Halloween Ends completely missed the charm of the original movie. What was once a very simple, straight to the point slasher, where a unstoppable killer storms through Haddonfield on a murderous rampage is now a convoluted romantic thriller about Laurie's grand daughter, Alison, falling for a bad boy psychopath! I'm not even kidding you folks, Halloween Ends focuses far more on this new character named Corey, who slowly becomes psychotic upon meeting Michael Myers in a creepy sewer. After escaping the infamous serial killer, Corey slowly starts to lose his sanity and essentially becomes a copy-cat killer of The Shape, only he has an even cheaper Halloween mask from the local dollar store. What's even worse is just how much screen time is absolutely wasted on this bizarre, yet awful romantic relationship he has with Alison, which honestly takes over the majority of this film's run time! I swear to you this is the actual plot and it's not at all scary.

Hellraiser: Impact of a Legend
”We have such sights to show you…” These words were spoken at the end of a film that became the beginning of a legacy. I’ll never forget the first time I laid eyes on the horror icon known as Pinhead. I went over my dad’s house for the weekend one day in 1997 and he rented this horror movie about this beautiful woman who was helping a pale skinned man with needles in his head terrorize some family for reasons I was too young to understand, but the movie was very entertaining. The name of that movie was Hellraiser: Bloodline and it was the fourth film in the Hellraiser film series created by Clive Barker. Hellraiser is without a doubt, one of the greatest cinematic masterpieces of horror film history, especially when it comes to slashers. The key to understanding the genius and impact of the Hellraiser series is examining its concepts, themes, characters and real life messages about morality and the consequences of our choices.

51 Crow Street
Crow Street was Misty's favorite street. It was long and swerved like a snake as you drove along it. There were fields along the sides, while big barns and houses stood beside them. Rolls of hay covered the fields on one side while the other faced the water, laying out imagery so beautiful that people stopped to paint there quite often. At night it looked mesmerizing. There were barely any street lights so that you could see each of the stars above us. They twinkled in the night so bright you could see them over your headlights.

The Strange Tales of Killian Barger: The Little Ghost
The streets thrummed around him as Killian walked past droves of laughing children. The street lights buzzed placidly, and the moon was a full and watchful eye overhead. Around him, superheroes and princesses, ninjas and pop stars, soldiers, and sports players ran willy-nilly. It was the barely controlled chaos that Killian had missed on the other side. He had invited Dom to come out too, but Dom was out at an event with his Granddaughter, and Killian wouldn't have taken that away from him for the world.
