We Now Return You to Your Regularily Programmed Program...

Hey, folks!  I hope you all had a good October (and enjoyed the articles I posted during it), and a good November! I recently went on my annual ten day vacation/retreat at my best friend's cabin.  While there, I watched and read a bunch of horror stuff.  Upon my return, I started to draft up my reviews, with the intention of transcribing them to the blog here, and getting back into a regular schedule of posting! Well, I'm proud- and glad, to announce that I've finished transcribing them all, and have set up the schedule for them. You will find now reviews and articles here every Tuesday and Thursday at Noon (Pacific Standard Time)! Yah, me! In addition, you'll be able to read non-horror related articles from me every Monday and Wednesday over on " We Came From the Basement " at about 5:00 pm (Pacific Standard Time). Woo Hoo! NOT ONLY THAT, THOUGH! Nooooo… there's more! I will also be making a concerted effort to post weekly on my persona...

The Corner of Terror... Back From the Dead!

Greetings, everyone.  You may have been wondering where I've been, and what I've been doing since about March 2013... and why this blog went dead. Well, Life has a way of taking you out of the game for a while- and such is what happened to me.  A combination of a new job and moving resulted in my having to put my reviews in Limbo for awhile. Now, however... I am rising from the grave to bring you more reviews of horror movies, books and games! There will be some changes occurring over the next couple of months.  Some of those changes are: "What Movie Wednesday"- Due to the way my work schedule is set-up, I don't have every Wednesday off- so I won't be able to do my weekly voting and tweet-along.  To make up for this, I will be creating a page here that will show a schedule of tweet-along dates, 24 hour tweet-along dates, review postings, and any other special events that I might be able to conduct. Navigation-  I'd like to make things a little...

Bloggity Bloggity Blog...

What do you think of when you hear that someone is a blogger... especially a HORROR blogger? Do you envision a gloomy room lit by light filtering through the blinds as dust motes dance lazily in the dry breeze of an old fan?  Do images of a room consisting of shelves of horror DVD's, books, and collectibles come to mind?  How about a slightly disheveled shape hunched over in utter darkness tap tap tapping at a keyboard- their face lit by the cold blue glow of a computer monitor... empty pizza boxes and Twinkie wrappers scattered around their feet? Or do you imagine an average sort of person that you'd meet on the street, and think, " Hey, he's just like me ,"?  Well, that's the thing about horror bloggers- they can be ANYONE. ANYONE... even your Grandma could be one. Some people get a funny look on their face when I say that I write a blog about horror books and movies... a sort of, " You don't look like a gothic, Crow wannabe ," look....

The Word of Terror is Spreading...

There comes a point in a writer's life (even if their writing consists mostly of babbling about horror movies), when they ponder whether or not their writing has an impact on anything or anyone. Well, Google helped me resolve that own sort of issue in my life. In addition to this blog, I submit my reviews to another great site- Horror-Movies.ca .  My username on that site is "TerrorCorner"... just like my Twitter name .  Well, I decided to Google, "TerrorCorner," and noticed something that helped to make me feel better about whether or not this blog is having an impact on things. Because apparently, it has. I have been finding that many of my reviews are appearing on sites OTHER than Horror-Movies.ca .  Even though most of those copies link back to Horror-Movies.ca , rather than my blog, there's a sense of satisfaction that comes from seeing my words spreading across the internet. Some of the sites I've found so far with my reviews...
