Spoon Fed Horror

Expect more from your entertainment. Don’t be spoon fed. Whether film, literature, music, even video gaming…refuse to be dumbed down. As I move over the half way point in post production for “Death House” I’ve had time to reflect on the film and wonder how it will be received. The latest news on yet another “Friday the 13th” installment is it will be an origins story. I guess my question is…was there ever that much there in the first place to warrant an origin backstory? Doesn’t it defeat the point of making a simple slasher film to entertain, scare and titillate? Do we really need an origins story whether on Pamela Vorhees or Jason or how Camp Crystal Lake was founded? The Millennial Generation and after are said to be too literal. They need everything spelled out for them. They have all the information they need on their phones. Why think? Why extrapolate? Hell, why even dream? School is taught

“Women in Horror Month” Spotlight: Heather Langenkamp

If you don’t know the name Heather Langenkamp, then odds are you don’t know your 1980s slasher films, which basically means we can’t be friends. (You think I’m joking, don’t you?) In the above photo from New Line Cinema, you see Heather Langenkamp as the sassy Nancy Thompson. In case you still are drawing a blank (or if this particular photo reminds you too much of Emma Watson as Hermione Granger from the Harry Potter series, as it did me.), I present to you the most compelling exhibit: Heather Langenkamp was that Nancy Thompson. She returned to the role that made her famous several times since the initial Nightmare on Elm Street film in 1984. She returned in A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987), and again in 1994 for Wes Craven’s New Nightmare (aka. A Nightmare on Elmstreet 7: New Nightmare/New Nightmare.) She also was the narrator of, and appeared in, the 2010 documentary about the Nightmare
