Over a year ago, Haunt Jaunts signed up for Crazy Dog TShirts‘s affiliate program. The reason I applied was in part because of the shirt I’m modeling above. The Friday the 13th series is one of my faves. (Well, I…

I saw an ad on Facebook that said something to the effect “Like haunted house movies?” Of course that caught my eye. I clicked through and discovered the page for 7 Below. The next thing to catch my eye was…

I had been wanting to see The Collector for a while, but, as with most things, I got around to it in my own slow, sweet time. It ended up being worth the wait. (It just plain sucks to be looking forward…

Excuse me while I take a moment to vent about something for Movie Monday: sucky remakes. In particular, sucky slasher movie remakes. Specifically, Halloween, Friday the 13th, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. I consider these the Big 3. They…

I thought I’d do something a little different again for Movie Monday: list the horror movies I’m watching this Halloween season. It was inspired by last week’s Movie Monday Party Express stop to Nate’s Peer Review and his Part 1…

When I started Movie Monday last week I featured two. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to do that every week, but it seems I will again this week also. I totally just stumbled across this next movie…
