But this is also the month of Halloween, and most importantly … of horror movies.

Oh, how I love me some horror movies; monster movies, slasher movies, zombie movies, found footage movies, ghost movies, cannibal movies… Outside of joyless, nihilistic torture porn (“Hostel,” the “Saw” sequels), when it comes to the horror genre, as long as the spectacle is entertaining, I’m not too terribly picky.
