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.
If you’d gone with Maximum Overdrive on Stephen King’s birthday, Creepshow would have been a good choice for today. Although, that is a lot of Stephen King in less than a week.

I watched through the Blade trilogy again a little while ago. They actually hold up pretty well, still a very fun set of flicks.
Wasn’t Blade “only” a half-vampire?
Yes. His mother was pregnant when she was bitten by a vampire. He and Morbius often teamed up in the 70s
