Hellraiser Retrospective is Up!

Hello ghosts and ghouls, this is going to be a very quick post...
As all of you know, I'm absolutely obsessed with Hellraiser. It's been my favorite horror franchise for a number of years now, and honestly the obsession has never really died down even slightly.

To commemorate my love of the greatest horror franchise, my newest video is a retrospective of all 9 films!

Let me know which of the Hellraiser films is your favorite, and which franchise you'd like to see me do this with next!

The Hallow (2015) Review

Just when I thought that the found-footage film was going to take over the horror industry and we'd be left with a bunch of awful films that made our favorite genre look like a joke, director Corin Hardy brought us The Hallow, and I want to kiss him on the mouth for it.

For those of you that were getting so tired of found-footage, this film is going to rock your world. Adam and Claire Hitchens are a couple moving to rural Ireland with their infant son. Adam is a geologist looking to do some research in the surrounding woods...though the locals are telling him to stay away. The creatures in the forest don't take well to visitors...and if you have a baby they'll probably want it.

This film has a little bit of everything for all types of horror fans. If you prefer a slow-burn horror film, you're in for a treat. My only real frustration with this film stemmed from the fact that it took almost an hour for it to pick up and get exciting (I'm an instant-gratification kind of person), but other than that, there's no found-footage (can you tell I hate found-footage?), there's some body horror (one of my favorite types of horror...it freaks me out so bad!) and it's abundant on freaky creatures living in the woods.

When I tell you guys...these creatures are awesome. They were all done with very practical VFX because Hardy didn't want to make them look fake, and trust me, they don't. The sounds they make are awful, too...I was hearing them in my sleep.

While it's not making its way into my top 10 horror films, I do appreciate the film for what it is and I definitely think it's worth a watch if you're feeling tired of the norm in horror (which is lately pretty awful). The Hallow is on VOD now, so I would definitely give it a watch! It's fun, it's stressful, and it's such a breath of fresh air.

Until next time, my creepy people, stay spooky!

Happy November! Tell Me What You Want to See!

Hello again, ghosts and ghouls. Can you believe that October has come and gone, and we're now moving into the final months of 2015?

With that, October was a super busy month for me. Within the month, I wrote quite a few articles on my moviepilot because Halloween was on its way, I wrote a few posts here, and I moved my vlog to a new outlet, my YouTube page!

But with such big things happening, I feel like I have been neglecting my readers. If you have been here from the beginning, you know that this blog is usually where I do my reviews, but now that I've been moving my outlets to multiple places, I want to change it up. With that being said, I'm sure that I've asked this in a post before, but I want to know what you, my loyal, fabulous readers, want to see.

If you're enjoying everything that's going on so far, let me know! If you have a film you'd like me to review, feel free to leave me a comment. If you want me to review a book, I do those too! I'm down to try a little of anything, so don't hold back.

Feel free to contact me with any specific comments, questions or concerns at taylorterriblehorror@gmail.com, or find me on Facebook (I usually respond really quickly to Facebook messages).

Alright, loves! Welcome to November at TTTC...I can't wait to get creepy with you!

Until next time, stay spooky <3
