Seven Killer Songs
In Irish folklore, the banshee is an apparition whose mournful, wailing song signals someone’s recent death. In most versions of the myth, the banshee’s song is so piercing and strong that it can cut through solid objects and drive those who hear it insane. It’s a shame that this intriguing myth isn’t used more often [...]

Eleven Horror Movie Plants With Whom You Should Not F
in horror films, as far as eukaryotes go — animals get most of the attention. we’re all familiar with various animal horrors that should be avoided. whether it be primate (e.g. KING KONG, MONKEY SHINES, and all human slashers like jason and leatherface), insect (e.g., THEM, MIMIC), fish (e.g., JAWS, PIRANHA), or [...]
Zombeak!
One of the most intriguing packages we’ve ever received at Evil On Two Legs came addressed to Corey Feldman. Of course, there is a Corey who writes for Eo2L, but unfortunately he’s not Fel-dawg. I was even more intrigued when I saw that this package contained a review copy of a new, independent film called [...]
Movies Every Horror Fan Has Seen (Except Me)

Sadly, the same is true of horror films. So, in the spirit of full disclosure and [...]

Jon’s Favorite H.P. Lovecraft Film Adaptations
Just as sci-fi films are forever indebted to the fiction of Ray Bradbury and Phillip K. Dick, horror films are equally indebted to Stephen King and H.P. Lovecraft. And just as Phillip K. Dick has given the sci-fi genre a more subversive, surreal alternative to Bradbury’s classic stories, Lovecraft’s fiction has helped give horror [...]

The Phantom of the Opera (1998)
dario argento’s the phantom of the opera (1998) looked to be tailor-made for my fiancée and i. the last few weeks i’ve been on an argento kick, but i’ve been watching them by myself since she’s not the biggest fan of horror films to begin with — let alone surreal, incoherent italian ones. [...]
