All horror, all the time. Mostly film, but some books too. And random thoughts about fear, violence, and the art of storytelling. And the pleasure of a pop culture obsession.

FEWDIO

I am now hooked on these short horror videos. In less than 3 minutes they have plot, scares, and style. All the horror of the average movie compressed into minutes - very intense.

10 best low budget horror movies

http://www.salon.com/entertainment/movies/2011/08/05/friday_night_seitz_horror_movies

Salon.con has some of the best writing on the horror genre. This is a fine top ten list and of course I know all of them well. I even agree with the ranking - almost. I would put "Carnival of Souls" first instead of second. And I would move "Eraserhead" from first to eighth. Still, a very fine list. The lowest budget, most innovative films are Outsider Art.
