Name an obscure horror movie you feel deserves wider recognition.
Curt - Groovy Age of Horror
That would be the early and little-seen Naschy flick LAS NOCHES DEL HOMBRE LOBO. A real standout among his werewolf movies–and I love all of them!

Hey, Boils and Ghouls. Sorry I haven’t been around the past week. There isn’t really a good reason for my absence. I’ve just been working on some stuff that doesn’t involve the computer, and I’ve fallen behind a bit. Thank you to everyone who wrote in assuming I was dead. […]
Herman Stein created the music behind Creature from the Black Lagoon and hundreds of other films. Stein’s passing in 2007 reminds all horror freaks of the power of music in our horror favorites.

Movie Review of Dead Silence: A dark atmospheric ghost story.
When Rue Morgue decided to conduct an interview with Uwe Boll, they were met with at least a few exclamations of disdain from long-time readers on their message board, people who would normally just skip parts they’re not interested in. I find that an interview with a filmmaker who may be considered “bad” can […]
