The Haunting (the original and not the heavy cgi, special effects laden version of the late 90s) is classic horror. It walks the line between psychological thriller, focusing mainly on poor Eleanor (Julie Harris), a sheltered woman who had no life of her own, but was confined to help her bed-ridden mother up until her…

The Birds (1963)
As I continue through the 101 Horror Movies, and get closer to present day, there tend to be more and more films that I have already seen, but am happy to revisit. The Birds falls into that category. The man was a master storyteller, and while some of the contemporary horror films can barely hit…
What Ever Happpened to Baby Jane? (1962)
What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? is one of those films that has grown beyond itself to become the stuff of Hollywood legend. There were stories of the feud between the leads that spanned their entire lives. Because of it, I think it lends the sense of vicious sibling rivalry that is evident throughout the…

Make sure you get over to the website for Jeremy LaLonde’s new film, you can find it here. The pages that really get me excited about the film so far are the cast pages, there’s a succinct rundown on every member of the cast listed on the brilliant poster to the left, which had me…

This was a long time before Star Wars came along, and even longer before Paramount learned what a hot property that had. The short-lived animated series aired in the 73 to 74 season,…
Sex After Kids Teaser Trailer
Here’s a look at the teaser trailer that Jeremy LaLonde and his cast put together for his new film. Looks awesome! I’m really looking forward to this one! If you listened to our podcast yesterday, and if you haven’t do yourself a favor and do it, you know that our favorite Canadian film maker is…
Carnival of Souls (1962)
The 101 Horror Movies strikes again with Carnival of Souls, a cult favorite from 1962. I don’t wish to sound mean, but it feels very much like it was made in the 60s. And while the ending may have been a bit of a shocker at the time, having seen so many similar films over…
The Return of Jeremy LaLonde
Wow. This was a great podcast! We got to catch up with our dear friend, Jeremy LaLonde, the director of The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard. We met up, shared some small talk, and then he gave us the scoop on his new film. If you missed Paul Shepard, you are not going to…
Being Elmo (2011)
I love my muppets. I’ve never made a secret of it. I own The Muppet Movie, The Great Muppet Caper, Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, I have the Muppet Show on DVD (still waiting on series 4 & 5!). I read the book Street Gang, The Complete History of Sesame Street. They always have a very special…
