2020 Blind Spot Series: The Ring (2002)

Despite it being widely praised by fans of the genre, I was never compelled to watch Gore Verbinski's The Ring as I always thought it'd be just another mediocre to say the least American horror. But it's a must-see, apparently, hence I picked it as my Blind Spot film for the month of October. And I wasted two hours of my day off to see it, hours I could have spent watching two episodes of Netflix's Dark, which is scarier, far more tense, suspenseful and twisted than this dreadfully boring flick.

Thursday Movie Picks: Halloween + Television Edition: Horror Series

A weekly series hosted by Wandering Through the Shelves

Yet another month has come to an end which means a television edition of the Thursday Movie Picks series. And since it's October, we're asked to pick horror series. Not my strongest suit, I must say, as I'm not really fond of the genre and therefore I don't usually watch these series. But thanks to Netflix, I can join with some great series.

Thursday Movie Picks: Halloween Edition: Snow/Winter Horrors

A weekly series hosted by Wandering Through the Shelves

There couldn’t have been a more appropriate Halloween theme this week as we went from 20+ degrees to barely 10 here, and it’s cold and windy and all we are missing to be winter at its worst is snow. Anyway, this week I was forced to use some films I wasn’t a huge fan of because I haven’t seen many winter horrors.

Thursday Movie Picks: Halloween Edition: Horrors Based on True Stories

A weekly series hosted by Wandering Through the Shelves

Welcome to another Halloween themed Thursday Movie Picks. This week we are venturing into the scariest kind of horror films, those based on real-life events. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen many that fit and I’ve already used one last week so not all my picks are good this week.

Monthly Recap: September 2020

Remember when I bragged about my 2020 going wonderfully? Well, September really tried hard and succeeded in messing that up. 

Thursday Movie Picks: Halloween Edition: Horror Movie Houses

A weekly series hosted by Wandering Through the Shelves

As we welcome October, we also welcome the Halloween Edition of Wandering Through the Shelves’s Thursday Movie Picks. For this first week, we are asked to pick films with scary houses, or at least that’s what think. Without further ado, here are my picks.
