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.
Everything about Moraeu ’96 was amazing. Such a great mix of terrible performances and bad ideas. It was actually the first Marlon Brando movie I ever saw and I will forever associate him with that role.
I am of an age, that when I saw the quote, my brain instantly replied, “We are Devo.” Apparently Mothersbaugh and Casale took the question from the novel, so there is a connection.

How many classic stories get their own song, I ask you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ssYZQnso4I
I’m surprised no one has really done a modern reworking of this in our age of biotech anxiety.
