‘Women In Horror Month’ Spotlight: Linda Blair

Many of you recognize the name Linda Blair because of her role in the 1973 horror classic ‘The Exorcist’. No one can deny that, even as such a young girl, Linda Blair played the role of the decade. I still can’t watch ‘The Exorcist’ alone at night. That movie is so intense and brilliant and her role as Regan was just incredible. Though Mrs. Blair has had a long history in film and been in many movies, 71 of them to be exact, her role as Regan will forever give her a place in the horror history. Mrs. Blair is still involved in entertainment, but her heart is in her charity ‘Linda Blair Worldheart Foundation’. Mrs. Blair actively speaks out on animal welfare as well as actively helping to find the dogs a forever home, which makes me respect her even more. Linda Blair we salute you ! ‘The Linda Blair Worldheart Foundation’ https://www.lindablairworldheart.org/

Movie Review: Annabelle (2014)

A young couple wakes to the screams of their neighbors in the middle of the night. When the husband rushes to their aid he finds the older couple savagely murdered. Mia runs into her home to call the police. Suddenly she is attacked by the neighbor’s estranged daughter and her boyfriend, both who are involved with a cult. The police arrive just in time to save the couples’ lives. Life for the young couple just keeps getting worse.

Artist Spotlight: Lone Gone Dolls

Have you ever something that is so creepy that it’s cute? I have. I saw these twisted dolls a couple of weeks ago and I had to know more about them. Long Gone dolls are dark and creepy but kind of adorable. Each doll is one of a kind and hand painted by artist Teri Long. When I asked her how each dolls comes to be she had this to say: “They are just unwanted unloved and sometimes damaged dolls that I clean up and repaint with non toxic water based acrylic paints and seal with varnish. I usually have a pretty good idea what I have in mind for each doll before I paint them! Vampires – zombies – or just plain creepy dolls.” Long Gone Dolls can be purchased on Etsy.

A teenage boy named Cayden starts to experience strange blackouts, enhanced strength and speed. Oh, and he’s turning into a werewolf. One day, after a blackout out he wakes up to find he’s killed his parents and attacked his girlfriend. He flees before the police arrive.

Have you ever thought about what it would be like to be a Walking Dead Walker? Recently I had the pleasure of having a talk with a very nice gentleman and Walker by the name of Larry Mainland.
