The Horror Geek – News, Rants and Reviews From The Horror Geek!

Sorry for the sparse updates here at the site lately. I’ve been swamped with real life stuff and everything’s been hectic. Hopefully things will be back to normal within the next few weeks. In the meantime, here are some things of mine that you probably haven’t seen unless you’ve been heading over to Horror Squad on a daily basis. Hope you enjoy and thanks for continuing to support the site.

If you read the site regularly, you know I not only run The Horror Geek, but I also write for HorrorSquad.com. I do this because I am insane, and when someone offers me money I’m too poor to say no.

Anyway, I’ve got a new installment in my series on Death Scenes We Love up this morning. Today we take a look at a clip from Ryuhei Kitamura’s Versus–a film very near and dear to my heart. So, if you have a moment to spare, please swing by and check it out. It’s good stuff.

I hope to god the world returns to normal tomorrow, because I’m tired of waking up every morning and not having anything to post. This was like the slowest horror news week ever, but I did manage to get a few things up over at Horror Squad that you didn’t see here. Here are some links–go read them and make me happy.

And if that weren’t enough, you can also check out my Best Horror of 2009 list if you haven’t already, my reflections on the passing of Chas. Balun, and the debut installment of my newest project, Death Scenes We Love. This one covers a classic scene from Lucio Fulci’s City of the Living Dead.

Hopefully next week will see things returning to normal around here as far as new posts go.
