Unintentionally Funny Moments In Serious Horror Movies

When one watches horror movies, the main reason for doing so is to be scared, disturbed, and entertained… not laugh or left dumbfounded by what you just saw. The following list count downs from the least to the most moments in horror films that were probably not meant to be funny but came out that way, and be warned, there are a lot of SPOILERS ahead. 10: Get Out First, we start off with the 2017 directorial debut of Jordan Peele, Get Out.

Light Up Your Costumes With Masks From Mask Frenzy

This pandemic won’t last forever, and when it’s over you’ll be sure as pumpkin spice and candy corn that there will be awesome Halloween parties again! So how can you stand out at these parties? Well maybe add some “WOW” to your costume with a mask from Mask Frenzy! I have to give a big shout-out to the cool folks at Mask Frenzy for making this review possible! What makes their masks unique if you have not already guessed is the use of El Cold Light technology (an LED light that looks like neon light strips), which highlights features of the mask and makes them pop! The masks I got are the Jason Voorhees and the Purge (in red). I’m sure the origins of the masks need no introduction but for the sake of decency here’s a quick refresher. The famed hockey mask belongs to the behemoth machete-wielding killer Jason from the “Friday the 13th” films after he ditched the

Alan Baxter’s ‘The Gulp’ Is A Terrifying Journey That You Won’t Forget

Characters I love the characters in these stories. It is shocking how well author Alan Baxter not only creates characters, but makes each one unique, and makes each one fit perfectly in their individual stories. From a somewhat cantankerous truck driver to shadowy rock stars to desperate drug dealers, each character is incredibly strong. However, the strongest character is the town itself. Gullpepper (locals call it “The Gulp”) is a mysterious, haunting place that feels alive in its own right. Baxter has built a whole mythos around this town and area. He has set it up as a character and a place of both magic and horror. Plot “Gulpepper is just… different…the place has a habit of swallowing people.” Each tale is a strong story that not only lives on its own merit, but builds with the other stories like building blocks that create the anthology of horror that is The Gulp. I won’t go through each story individually, but
