Eraserhead is the Strangest Horror Film I Have Ever Seen in My Life
I think this is the first time I have ever questioned a plot to a horror movie. I did hear that this movie was strange, but wow, I was dumbfounded by literally 80% of this movie. I kept on questioning what was happening throughout the film, and once the film abruptly ended on a strange note, I was left with even more questions.

The Cabin in the Woods Has One of the Best Endings in Horror History
I think The Cabin in the Woods has to be the top dog of horror movie endings. It's INSANE, and freaking BRUTAL. This is probably the best ending I have ever seen to a horror film. This ending features a twist no one would see coming.

If Ed Gein Lived in 2025, Would He Still Be a Monster? by NWO Sparrow
When the Closet Turns Into a Coffin: The Real Horror Behind Ed Gein and America’s Fear of Gender Ryan Murphy has never been afraid to walk us through America’s darkest corridors. With his new Netflix series Monster: The Ed Gein Story, he’s about to pull us into the heartland of mid-century Wisconsin, where repression and religion built the kind of monster only small-town America could produce. The horror of Ed Gein’s story isn’t just in the grave-robbing, skin suits, or mutilated bodies found in that isolated farmhouse. It’s in the way America taught men like Gein to hate themselves long before they learned how to harm others.

The first of Hammer's Mummy films had gotten a somewhat mixed reception, but it was received well enough to receive three sequels.

In the Mouth of Madness is a Total Madhouse of Confusion and Terror
I can't believe I had no idea that John Carpenter had directed this film. The only reason why I started watching this movie, was because I had heard from so many horror fans that this film has a huge cult following. I had no idea of the story, only that I knew that the main dude in this film was the main character who came out in the first Jurassic Park.

Saw: Worst to Best List
Saw is a successful horror film series that began in 2004, centering on the character John Kramer, known as the Jigsaw Killer. Kramer is a civil engineer who, after being diagnosed with cancer, decides to test his victims' will to live through elaborate traps and deadly games. Rather than directly killing his captives, he offers them a chance to survive if they demonstrate their will to live, which often involves inflicting physical pain or making difficult moral choices.

Netflix Spins a New Hit with Monster series
Netflix subscribers have come a long way. Long ago we waited for our DVD to arrive in the mail to watch the latest flick. Then RedBox took over the new movies on DVD point of interest, and Netflix evolved into a subscription channel for anyone who could download the app or add the channel to their cable package. While some Netflix subscribers who are into Horror and Fantasy shows may still be patiently awaiting another season of "The Witcher" or "Stranger Things" (like me) we've had to find other shows to get on with, and I found the Monster series on Netflix an acceptable replacement along with "Wednesday" (the girl from the Addams family) which only aired 16 episodes at 2 seasons. Fans into Goth Theater like this kind of stuff, and Halloween lovers tend to enjoy the Horror Genre. It seems that Netflix is carving out a niche in the Horror and Fantasy genres by serving their subscribers a buffet of spooky entertainment. I'm satisfied, and applaud the Netflix Big Dogs for switching to Fan Servitude over stuff like "13 Reasons Why" which was simply too controversial.
