Horror Classics: Scars of Dracula (1970)
Our Dracula marathon is almost through, but it seems that things aren't improving for the prince of darkness...unfortunately. Christopher Lee's portrayal of the villainous vampire in 1958 catapulted him to superstardom - in a manner of speaking. He became the horror genre's new darling of sorts which, as he soon discovered, turned out to be a double-edged sword.

Spaceballs is Still Hysterical!
I wrote a lot of Star Wars content back in May; something I realized a short while after the last article was that I should have reviewed Spaceballs. Why? Because it's a Star Wars parody. Wait a minute, you've never seen Spaceballs?

Once Upon a Forest
You know, I looked over my profile and noticed that I don't have much in the way of kid-friendly content. Now, I know a lot of my readers are probably adults, but I'm sure a few kids have read them as well. I'm sure there are also a few parents who've read my stuff.

This is probably going to be one of the shorter entries in this series, but let's get straight to it. Sanguine Rose is an adult-only visual novel - hence its appearance in the AO Archives - that was developed by Dusky Hallows and published by TinyHat Studios.

Horror Classics: Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970)
The dark prince has been dominating the Horror Classics series lately, hasn't he? So far, we've looked at eight films and there are plenty more to come. That's what happens when you're a horror icon, I guess. So, which Dracula film are we looking at this time? Well, we're still doing the Hammer series and this time we're looking at the fifth entry in their run of Dracula films.

Crime Chronicles: Mad Lady LaLaurie
It's no secret that US history is packed to the brim with some of the most heinous monsters you can imagine. Right off the top of my head, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, and Gary Ridgeway all come to mind. History is, in general, also rather bloody and the USA is no stranger to that side of things either.

Horror Classics: Dracula has Risen from the Grave (1968)
Christopher Lee's return to the role of Dracula in 1966's Dracula: Prince of Darkness was a nice surprise for audiences. With that said, Lee had lost interest in the role. He wanted to portray Bram Stoker's Count Dracula, and that wasn't what was being done. Of course, he still played the role, but that was mostly because he was practically blackmailed into doing the role.

Horror Classics: Dracula: Prince of Darkness (1966)
Despite the absence of Christopher Lee, 1960's Brides of Dracula was a critical and commercial success. With that in mind, you'd think that the guys over at Hammer Studios would've continued along that route with Van Helsing hunting the Count's acolytes. Obviously, however, they didn't or we wouldn't be here.

Horror Classics: Brides of Dracula (1960)
With the production of Dracula in 1958, it gave people a vampire film like no other. The film was very successful and it wasn't long before Hammer Studios commissioned a sequel. Jimmy Sangster (he also wrote the previous film) was brought in to write the screenplay.

Crime Chronicles: Bloody Bathory
Hungary, not a place I've visited, but it's a land that's well-known for its beautiful landscapes, incredible mountains, lush forests, and rich history. It was also the home to one of history's most notorious criminals, a woman who used the promise of work to lure helpless, desperate young women to her estate...to their deaths.
