FAQ

What is this?

  • 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.

    It’s on Amazon Prime right now, so I will give it a try. Thanks!

    I often joke that I should have been an English major (rather than Physics/Astronomy), and the ending to this movie is perhaps a reminder that it may be just as well. Well-made movie, but that ending just makes me think, “WTF???” I had a bit of a “body horror” moment at one point, when the star and another woman are shopping together: they were almost skeletally thin, with pipestem arms and prominent shoulder blades. There’s also a certain amount of casual racism, but that’s more a sign of the times (a 70’s movie). Oh, and I would not call it “violence to kitties” so much as “a REALLY fake-looking cat puppet”.
