I select a thematically appropriate horror movie for each day of the year and tell you about it.
Why?
It seemed like a good idea at the time.
How do you get to decide what qualifies as a horror movie and where each one goes on the calendar?
I am the Mayor of Horror Movies.
Are all these movies good?
Oh gosh no. But I recommend all of them to the adventurous viewer.
What’s with the CWs?
In horror movies, disturbing material is part of the entertainment package. But for some viewers, elements like sexual violence or bigotry ruin the fun. For those folks, I include content warnings. That said, the warnings are based on my personal reactions and should not be expected to cover all potential cinematic skeeviness, so proceed with caution.
Who are you, aside from the mayor?
I’m Shaenon K. Garrity. I’m mostly a cartoonist. I watch a lot of scary movies while I draw cartoons.
Not only is this a cult classic (indeed, both versions are cult classics each in their own right), but the Director’s Cut has an ending right out of cheesy 50’s horror movies! I won’t give it away to those who haven’t seen it, but you absolutely HAVE to watch both versions to see the two different endings.
Come to think of it, this movie is one of several that deserve special places of honor on both a Horror Movie A Day and Cult Classic Movie Of The Week calendars!
That movie is horrifying, hilarious, and one of the catchiest musicals I’ve heard in my life.
“Lii-tle shop! Lii-tle-shop-o’horrors! Lii-tle shop! Lii-tle-shop-o’horrors! ”
“Downtooown…”
“Shall be a deeentist!”
“Feed me Seeymour. Feed me aalll the night loong”
“I’m a mean greean mother/from outer space”
