Happy Halloween, and welcome to the last day of our 30-Day Horror Challenge! It was a fun project to undertake, but now it’s ending. Speaking of ending, today’s topic is “The best horror film ending.” Once more I’m going to add a list of “Runners-Up” to this because there’s a lot of solid possibilities to…
Day 29
Thanks to those of you who have been following along with our 30-Days of Horror Challenge. I can see the traffic reports, so I know there’s a bunch of people are reading this thing every day. Super cool! Well today’s question, on our second to last day, is “The best horror movie opening scene.” “The…
Day 28
Three days left in our 30-Day Horror Challenge, I hope you both have enjoyed it as much as I have! What’s today’s challenge? Why it’s none other than “Favorite horror movie score!” Runners up:“Jaws.” It’s got that buuuuhBUM! music along with a full orchestra of Star Wars’ish dramatic classical music. “The Lost Boys.” Roger Daltrey,…
Day 27
There’s only four days left in our 30-Day Horror Challenge! “Favorite horror movie director” is the question of today. My favorite thriller director who has made a few horror movies is Alfred Hitchcock. Like episodes of Twilight Zone and early Clint Eastwood cowboy movies, I could easily devote an entire weekend to watching one Hitchcock…
Day 26
Are we on Day 26 already? It seems like just yesterday I was defending Martin Lomax as the apex of horror villains! Well today’s challenge has nothing to do with that magnificent little troll. “Most chilling scene from a non-horror” is what we’re going to talk about today. …and this one only took me a…
Day 24
Welcome back for another installment of the 30-Day Horror Challenge! If you read the October 1st post and are playing along you’ll likely know today’s topic – “Your favorite horror movie scene.” I started writing this piece yesterday, and wrote a couple paragraphs about the head smash scene in “Midsommar,” but then stopped. “Is this…
Day 25
“Your favorite horror from the 1990’s” is the theme for Day 25 of our 30-Day Horror Challenge. Now I have to remember what horror movies were made in the 1990’s. Why is it that I always seem to forget details in that ten-year gap between the 1980’s and the 21st Century? The 90’s always slips…
Day 23
“The Greatest Horror Comedy” is the subject of Day 23 of the 30-Day Horror Challenge. A combination of horror and comedy seems like an unlikely pairing in a movie, but it absolutely works. Maybe because the comedy part adds levity to what would otherwise be a dismal downer, but I think it has more to do…
Day 22
We’re coming up into the home stretch on our 30-Day Horror Challenge! The topic for today is a list of “Your ‘Desert Island’ horror films” The concept of a ‘Desert Island’ list of films is, of course, a list of horror movies I’d want to have with me if I were stranded on a desert…
Day 21
The end of our third week on the OkGoreberfest 30-Day Horror Challenge, and today’s question is “Your favorite ‘Final Girl.’” The final girl, as you may know, refers to the sole female survivor in a horror film (usually but not always a slasher movie) who survives a murderous rampage by her own abilities, rather than…
