DIA DE LOS MUERTOS IS HERE -
By E.C. McMullen Jr.
Love of Horror fiction starts when you are young. THE ADDAMS FAMILY and THE MUNSTERS were likely my introduction to Horror, quickly followed by the H.P Lovecraft stories my Uncle Pat would read to me at night, and THE TWILIGHT ZONE.
For your kids, maybe the family-centric COCO is the way to start. My COCO review explains why.

HALLOWEEN IS HERE -
By E.C. McMullen Jr.
Yeah, you have read every review and dissertation. Or maybe you've only heard a lot, been inundated through the years with stills and clips and gifs and satire and who knows what else, until you feel there's no point in seeing it?
Feo: "Wait, what? Hey! Have you even seen the original HALLOWEEN?
Guest: "Oh sure! Ch! Ch! Ch! Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Feo: "Get out of my house." 
No, if you are a Horror fan, there's a reason why this movie has achieved full iconic status way past the point of being a Classic.
Let my HALLOWEEN Review give you that incentive to finally watch it.
