Week 3 of the 31 Days of Halloween Horror Marathon was a dive into the strange, the unsettling, and the unrelenting. If Week 2 was all chaos, gore, and adrenaline, this week was more like a slow spiral—you think you’re in control, and then reality itself begins to bend. Seven nights, seven double features, each…

Horror cinema has always occupied a strange and thrilling place in storytelling. It sits between art and nightmare, intellect and instinct. From its earliest flickers on screen, it has fascinated, disgusted, and captivated us—an unblinking mirror held up to our fears, our guilt, and our curiosity about what lies beyond the light. Since the late…

Week 2 of the 31 Days of Halloween Horror Movie Marathon was a full-spectrum descent into cinematic madness. We went from arthouse psychosis to cannibal comedy, with detours through cult dinners, Turkish hellscapes, and Australian trauma therapy.

We’ve officially made it through Week 1 of our 31 Days of Halloween horror movie marathon, and what a start it’s been.

But this isn’t just “grab a bag of lollies from Woolies and call it Halloween” season—oh no, we’re going full-throttle. For the next 31 days (and probably a few bonus nights, because some nights demand double…

The 1970s were the golden age of distrust, fear, and imagination turned inside out. Horror and sci-fi, once brushed off as cheap matinee thrills, grew teeth. Suddenly, they weren’t just entertainment—they were cultural x-rays. Monsters weren’t just hiding in shadows; sometimes they were us. Sometimes they were the things we chose to believe in. Looking…

If I am wrong, I’m insane… but if I’m right, it’s even worse than if I was wrong. I’ve always been fascinated by The Stepford Wives. You might first meet it as Ira Levin’s novel. Alternatively, you could catch the unsettling 1975 film. It’s one of those stories that crawls under your skin. It stays…

The lips of a strange woman drip honey, and her mouth is smoother than oil… But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword! Some films stay with you not because they’re perfect. They resonate because they hit you at just the right moment. These films have just the right amount of…
