Woman (In Horror) Crush Wednesday: Sharon Tate

Yes, my Little Monsters, it is Wednesday yet again, and with it comes our weekly tribute to a woman who has made a contribution to our beloved horror genre. The focus this week is Sharon Tate, a young woman whose life and career tragically came to an end far too soon. Sharon was a product of the “Lone Star State”, having been born in Dallas, Texas on January 24th, 1943, as the eldest of three children to Colonel Paul James Tate and his wife Doris. Her father’s promotions and transfers kept the family moving around, so there were no grand show-biz plans for little Sharon, despite the fact that at six months old, Sharon had won the Miss Tiny Tot of Dallas Pageant. Being on the move so often made it problematic for her to form any strong friendships or relations ships, and may have contributed to a lack of self confidence and shyness. As can be the case, some

Tarantino Has Completed The Script For New Manson Movie

Last we heard Quentin Tarantino was working on the script for his ninth film as a director, a film based on the murders by notorious cult leader Charles Manson and his family. The good news is, the script has been finished according to Deadline, but the movie has hit a speed bump. Bob and Harvey Weinstein were attached to produce. Of course with the sexual assault scandal, things have changed. Now, Tarantino is searching for another home for the project. While casting has not been confirmed, it’s been said that Margot Robbie has been cast to play Sharon Tate. Reportedly, actors Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio and Samuel L. Jackson have also signed on to co-star. Reportedly, the film will center on Sharon Tate who was 8 months pregnant when she was murdered. But she was not alone that night.

Charles Manson – The Man Who Thinks He is Both Christ and Satan

Monsters are real. Many articles have and will be written about mass murderers, serial killers, sociopaths and every other type of terror anyone can imagine. That being said, there are few monsters who come close to the topic of today’s article. This man brainwashed others to do, in his own words, Satan’s work. He was a beacon of evil for lost and damaged souls to latch onto and feel part of something. This monster gave his disciples purpose…the abominable purpose of Helter Skelter. Charles Manson was never convicted of murder himself, but he has spent nearly a lifetime in prison for composing one of the most publicised and vicious mass murders in modern history…and that is only a fraction of his reign of terror. The timing of this article coincides with Manson being admitted to a California hospital due to an undisclosed illness. Rumour is that Manson is suffering from gastrointestinal issues, but it is against federal and state law
