Story by Larry Cohen (uncredited) I was not sure if I should include the Jeff Speakman vehicle The Expert as part of the Cohen Case Files. Cohen is not even credited on the finished film.

I am doing the 31 Days of Horror Challenge. Every day in October, I will watch a different horror film I have never seen before and write about it here on the blog. “Who let Adam Simon on the lot?” – Griffin Mill, The Player Unless his career takes a massive upswing at some point […]

Executive Produced, Written (Also Story By), and Directed by Larry Cohen Any discussion of A Return to Salem’s Lot has to begin and end with Sam Fuller (yes, I am aware he is credited in most of his films as Samuel Fuller, but it seems wrong not to refer to him as Sam). A journalist, […]
I am taking part in The Chicago Creepout’s Twelve Days of Axe-mas holiday viewing event. This is my day two. Silent Night, Deadly Night Part 2 is such a stunningly horrible movie; I can only believe its existence can be blamed on a bet or a dare. More likely, it simply sprang from the brain […]
