In the spirit of the upcoming holiday season, the next week on Living With a Nerd is going to be a week of horror! Each day, we are going to review one of our five favourite horror movies. They will be posted in order of release…I swear this wasn’t intentional, but the five films were released one year after another: 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980, and 1981.
Stay tuned, it’s going to be a fun week!
The Gates of Hell trilogy from horror legend Lucio Fulci is unique in that it isn’t an actual trilogy at all…it is just a series of three movies that share a similar storyline.
Films like Shriek of the Mutilated and Slave to the Cannibal God prove that independent horror films are some of the best horror films. The Dead Next Door is no exception.
Note: Gory, NSFW images inside
Conveying the dread and sheer horror of an alien abduction is a difficult task. The Fourth Kind steps up to the plate and knocks this one out of the park. If you have never been fearful of abduction, you will be after seeing this film.
Written and drawn by Charles Burns, Black Hole is like a bad LSD trip combined with a nightmare. With a distinct drawing style and interesting characters, Burns grabs your attention from the first page and doesn’t let go.
Made for a measly $15,000 and filmed over one week, Paranormal Activity is “the next thing” in ultra-low-budget moviemaking. Paranormal Activity is a film that is hard to talk about without ruining anything for you, so this review will focus more on the technical aspects rather than the film itself. Still, I recommend seeing it before you continue reading.
Rainy Day Movie is a feature here on Living With a Nerd that provides short insights into movies and series that you should save for a rainy day. In this edition of Rainy Day Movie, we explore the legendary vampire film Nosferatu.
On October 29th, 1999, House on Haunted Hill was released to the masses. An updated version of the 1959 classic staring Vincent Price, this film still retains its creepy-factor a decade after its release.
In recent years, it seems that humans have become more central to zombie stories instead of the zombies. No longer content to focus on rotting flesh and cliches, zombie storytellers have begun exploring the way survivors would change through their ordeal…mentally, physically, and even intellectually. As the newest member of the “focus on humans” club, Zombieland is worth three times the price of admission.
