It’s Halloween; everyone’s entitled to one good scare. With this week’s streaming picks, expect many potent chills. Ghosts and hauntings tend to frighten more effectively than any other subgenre of horror because there’s no set rules or tangible way to fight them. The inherent unpredictability of incorporeal entities lurking in your home keeps you on […]

Remothered: Broken Porcelain lives up to the broken part of its name a bit too well. I threw myself back into the Felton house of Remothered: Tormented Fathers in preparation for the release of its sequel, Broken Porcelain.

I’ve loved Halloween since my diaper days, and it’s a safe bet that most of us remember the thrill of buying/making our obviously awesome costumes, going door to door trick-or-treating, eating our body weight in candy, and getting just a little freaked out by the decorations that people put up all over the neighborhood.
