Following up on 2024’s The Ceremony is About to Begin, Sean Nichols Lynch returns with This House is Totally Haunted, a film that doesn’t just subvert the genre’s rigid rulebook; it gleefully takes a sledgehammer to it. The premise hits the ground running when a cryptic letter from “Surviving in Shasta” lands on the lap […]
Here’s the first lineup of shorts I watched at Genre Blast. Wooly Bully (2025): What a rough watch. I don’t mean that in a bad way. I mean that in an “I have lived this movie” way. My dad’s descent into dementia was not easy to navigate, and as always, avoidance and denial were probably […]
EDITOR’S NOTE: An American Werewolf In London was on the CBS Late Movie on January 2 and September 18, 1987 and April 22, 1988. There must have been something in the waters of the Los Angeles River in 1981, as The Howling, Wolfen, Full Moon High and this film all came out in those same twelve months. While all three […]

The first film by Cecilia Condit, Beneath the Skin, is based on a real-life incident in the artist’s life. At one point, she dated Ira Einhorn, also known as the Unicorn Killer after he murdered his ex-girlfriend, Holly Maddux, and hid her corpse. Condit was taking medication that deadened her sense of smell, so she […]
This episode, I’m going deep into Death Is Not the End, a totally lost documentary about past and future lives. You can read a lot about it here. This is the kind of high-level weirdness that I love the most, so get ready for me to talk your ear off breathlessly for a long time. […]

EDITOR’S NOTE: The Initiation of Sarah was on the CBS Late Movie on January 1 and July 7, 1982. Originally airing on February 6, 1978, this movie reminds me of a very important lesson: the occult was everywhere in the 1970s, and it was ready to mess up your life. The film opens with Sarah (Kay Lenz, House), […]
Heat Score, the gritty crime-comedy-thriller from co-directors Devin and Robert Burkosky, wears its greasy heart right there on its sleeve. Set deep within the gritty underworld of Edmonton, this takes place in the 1990s, a place where Vince Valcone, once the toast of the local adult entertainment scene, has fallen on hard times. He’s running […]
