About Me
- The Keeper
- Fighting monsters, staring into the Void
- I've been obsessed with horror films since I was a kid watching "Fright Night" on Saturday nights with my brother in Louisville, Kentucky. I've been a professional writer since 2002, writing mostly art criticism. I think it's well past time I combined the two and shared my enthusiasm for this visionary but much maligned film genre in the form (mostly) of a CONSUMER GUIDE for the serious connoisseur of fright films.
Modus Operandi / Dramatis Personae
Welcome to the Cinemacabre Consumer Guide!
THIS SITE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION - WRITTEN REVIEWS WILL BE ADDED OVER TIME.
First, a full and honest disclosure - the format/grading system for this Consumer Guide was borrowed from Dean of Rock Critics Robert Christgau because, frankly, I couldn't think up a better one. I use the familiar A-F letter grade scale most of us grew up with, where A = EXCELLENT, B = GOOD, C = FAIR, D = POOR & F = INDEFENSIBLE. To earn an "A," a film must have formal coherence, conceptual clarity, and a distinct vision. It also must be scary, even if it requires suspension of disbelief on the part of the viewer (and what horror film doesn't?). "B" films are always worth seeing, but life is short and they should go further down on your Netflix queue. "C" films are for completists/fanatics only, and "D's" and "F's" aren't worth your time. (Note: in the case of movies-so-bad-they're-good, I don't believe many are, but if this is truly the case they receive a higher mark).
Hope you enjoy my page. Tell your friends and enemies!
