I weirdly feel like I’m talking about Stephen King all the time on this site lately, partly because of his insane rate of releasing novels, and partly because of the staggering amount of adaptations that are being made of his work. Ever since the first It film came out […]
Every October I like to get in a spooky mood, and generally share a lot of Halloween-themed media with you all. I talk about all manner of creepy stories, in film, comics, and literature. And, one of my tried and true sources of creepy novels is of […]
Two years ago I found myself completely blown away by a film I really anticipated to dislike quite a bit. And that film was Andy Muschietti’s It: Chapter One. I talked about this when I discussed the first film, but I generally became worried that the film was going […]
