Bad Horror Movies

Saving you from bad horror movies

Welcome to Bad Horror Movies

The Bad Horror Movies GuyWelcome to Bad Horror Movies, your go-to guide for navigating the thrilling yet treacherous terrain of horror cinema. I’m just a guy who’s been a horror movie aficionado for decades, and I’m here to share my unfiltered thoughts and rants on the films that make us scream, jump, and sometimes laugh out loud.

Why should you trust my reviews? Well, I’m no professional actor or director, but I did take three whole years of high school drama and even earned a letter in it. I’m a lifelong Thespian, albeit one who’s never set foot on a professional stage. But my real qualifications? A lifetime love of horror movies and an uncanny knack for predicting box office flops from just their trailers.

I’ve spent countless hours in front of the TV, immersing myself in the world of horror. From the late ’70s to the early ’80s, I was the human TV guide, knowing what was on every channel at any given time. And when DVDs came out with their bonus features and commentaries, I devoured them all. Even if I despised the movie, I’d still watch the extras. Why? Because understanding the thought process of the cast and director is fascinating. It’s about learning the art of filmmaking from those who live it.

Here at Bad Horror Movies, I don’t just review films. I rant about them. I give my honest, no-holds-barred opinion on why I loved, hated, or felt utterly indifferent towards a movie. Be warned, my language can be a bit colorful, and my humor, a bit dark. But that’s all part of the fun.

Remember, my goal isn’t to bash every horror movie out there. I love horror movies, both the good and the bad. If I critique a movie harshly, I’ll explain why. Every horror movie, especially the low-budget ones, deserves a chance. And just because I didn’t like a film doesn’t mean you won’t. My aim is to give you a heads up, a sneak peek into what you’re about to watch.

So, whether you’re about to stream a movie on Amazon Prime, Hulu, Netflix, or buy that special edition director’s cut with new bonus features, let me be your guide. Let’s save each other from the truly bad horror movies and celebrate the ones that get it right. After all, the world might not need another blogger offering unsolicited opinions, but it sure could use someone to separate the scream-worthy from the snooze-worthy in horror cinema. Welcome to Bad Horror Movies. Let’s get scared together.
