“Women in Horror Spotlight” Lou Simon

Today’s Women in Horror Month Spotlight goes to horror writer, director, and producer Lou Simon. She is described as being a “triple threat” in the indie film community, and has written/produced/directed several feature films. (Oh, and did we mention her production company?) She has three completed films under her belt (The Awakened, HazMat, & Agoraphobia) and has two more on the horizon (All Girls Weekend which is in pre-production and Blackout which has been announced.) – so all eyes should be on this up and comer in the horror genre. With a current average of 1 film released per year, she’s sure to be a familiar name to you, soon. (If she isn’t, already.)

Movie Review : ‘V/H/S : Viral’ (2014)

‘V/H/S Viral’ is an anthology that follows a disturbing chain of events connected by a series of viral videos. The videos consist of the stories connected to a stolen ice cream truck. The found footage shorts were each directed by different directors. The movie opens with ‘Vicious Circles’ by director Marcel Sarmiento. A young man (Kelly Misek Jr.), obsessed with capturing a viral video encounters a stolen ice cream truck in a high speed chase with the police. While filming his girlfriend (Emilia Ares Zoryan) is kidnapped by who ever is in the truck. Gregg Bishop’s section titled ‘Dante the Great’ follows Dante, a magician (Justin Welborn) who has a truly magical cape, that sometimes takes on a life of it’s own, and his assistant (Emmy Argo). This may have been the only section of the film that I actually found half way entertaining. In ‘Parallel Monsters’ directed by Nacho Vigalondo, a man creates a portal to another dimension and

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.

The police arrive just in time to save the couples’ lives. Life for the young couple just keeps getting worse.

Movie Review: Horns (2015)

This afternoon I was lucky enough to snatch up the last copy of ‘Horns’ off the shelf of my local Wal-Mart. As soon as I got home I sat down to see for myself what all the buzz was about. I was immediately drawn into the tragic love story of a young woman, Merrin, who was murdered and a town convinced that her boyfriend “Ig” is her killer. Iggy, played by Daniel Radcliffe , is hell bent on finding the identity of her killer and bringing them to justice. After a drunken night Ig wakes up to find horns sprouting from his head. The strange horns have unique powers. Everyone who faces Ig must confess to him their darkest truths and cannot help but follow Ig’s commands. The effects and makeup in ‘Horns’ are fantastic. The imagery was incredible. ‘Horns’ truly has an amazing cast and Daniel Radcliffe really brings his character to life. I don’t think anyone could have
