Day 1: From the Masters of Terror and the Macabre, George A. Romero & Stephen King, 1982’s Creepshow! The Most Fun You’ll Ever Have… BEING SCARED! I like the movie making it look like a comic book, which were so popular back in the 80’s. The special effects are not all that great and the stories are like just like something out of a comic book. I think the plots of the short stories were redundant and simple, if you’re a bad person then bad things will happen to you. The scri

Happy October! We’re stoked to begin our 31 Days of Horror and share in the wonder of the season with you! Here you’ll find Dark Room Horror’s list of movies to bring in those sweet holiday feels 🎃 Join us as we soak in the season we’ve all been waiting for. We’ll be posting quick reviews on each movie each day from 5 of our writers! With this many people only getting to write a paragraph on each film, we’re bound to have some differences in opinion. Join the discussion a

Contains light spoilers from The Witch (2015) I’d like to begin with a dream I had recently. In this dream, I was walking with my 2 year old daughter when a man approached us. I felt uneasy at his presence but did nothing. He then knelt down to my daughter’s level and reached out a long, thin finger. He touched her lip. As his finger left its place, I began to see a wart forming. It was growing fast. From that wart, a few others were beginning to emerge from her skin surround

Beetlejuice has been in my top 10 favorite movies of all time since I could remember. Since ’93 I’ve been in love with Tim Burton’s visual aesthetic when I saw Nightmare Before Christmas 3 times in theaters. I was 3 years old when the movie came out. Beetlejuice is one of those films that I honestly can’t recall my first time viewing. I’ve seen the movie countless times and I still love watching it. Because the movie came out in ’88, I never had the opportunity to see the cas

Like many before me, I got into photography in High School. Moody/emo selfies and melodramatic still life was kind of my thing. I created a myspace page separate from my personal account called 2:57 Photography. I thought the name was deep. That time just before the witching hour when “the body’s at low tide… The soul is out. The blood moves slow. You’re the nearest to dead you’ll ever be save dying.” But when people would ask what it meant, I’d simply tell them that’s what t

I’ve been making movies since I was a kid. I had the awesome privilege of owning a Hi8 camera that essentially took the place of my right hand. I recorded everything from trips to Walmart, my voice messages with different backgrounds, to movies that I was sure that I would one day be able to edit “professionally”. My “editing” process was simple then. I would record my content, transer it from Hi8 to VHS, set up my tripod in front of my tv, and proceed to make cuts, ad music

In this world of uncertainty, there are some things in life we know to be true, and some pieces of age-old advice that we should all heed. When you live in the middle of nowhere, never, never answer the door for Strangers. The Strangers: Prey at Night dropped their first teaser, and naturally Bloody Disgusting was right on top of it. The trailer has been watched, my curiosity has been stoked and I’m ready for the release of Strangers 2. I’ll be honest, this second installment

I feel broken. Every day, new allegations are coming out about sexual assault cases. A little while back, the horror community was in a buzz about Victor Salva and his latest film, Jeepers Creepers 3. If this was one you missed, Salva was convicted in ’88 for molesting his lead actor who was a 12-year-old boy and for possessing child porn, severed 15 months, then got back to movie making. From the side of the internet that I’m on, the primary discussion was about whether or n

The negative side effects of binge watching internet & tv series Not too long ago, I was in the middle of a conversation and was caught off guard by a comment that left me in a minor state of shock. Conversing about the information age we live in, I was told that this was part of the problem that millennials face. According to them, we have all of the knowledge of the world at our finger tips and anytime we want to know something we head to Wikipedia, YouTube and IMDB. They c

I’ve come to a point in my life where I feel incapable of working for someone else. Maybe its because I’m a “challenge person” or maybe it’s because I’m a millennial. What ever it is, my step father told me growing up to find what I love, then find a way to make money out of it. I genuinely believe that this is the only way that I will find joy and fulfillment in my work. I am taking the steps towards working and creating for myself. It’s something that I’ve always wanted to
