While George A. Romero was able to parlay the success of Night of the Living Dead into a career in the film industry, co-writer John A. Russo never quite found his footing. Any filmmaker would be lucky to have a movie a fraction as impactful as Night of the Living Dead on their resume, but […]

We all have those horror movies that scarred us for life.

Unlike his son Joe Hill, Stephen King hasn’t really written a Christmas story. Granted, the holiday has graced his works from time to time, but they’re often passing references.
