I started this blog in March of ’09 because I realized I’d begun watching a ton of horror movies, and I wanted to use the medium of journaling about the movies I watched to explore why I was doing it. Before I started the site I’d seen a lot of horror movies, but I wasn’t seeking them out almost every night. That started about two years before the blog.
As of this writing (September ’12) I still don’t know exactly what made me start watching so many of them. I do know that I envy people who think of a super narrow topic for a blog and are able to make it work. I initially thought that horror blogging was a super narrow topic. Boy was I wrong. The world of horror movies just gets larger and larger the more I research it.
Mostly I write to amuse myself, and in hopes of making you laugh. And I will continue to think of new directions to take this site, because I intend to be doing this in three more years.
Oh, and by the way, I’m a lady. If I don’t say that I’m a lady then people assume I’m a man and that irritates me, but it also irritates me that it irritates me. What can I say? I’m a malcontent, just like everyone else who isn’t dead yet.

hey! found your blog via a comment you left on mine. I am also a big horror film fan and critic. Have you seen The Human Centipede? I’d be interested in your critical analysis.

Thanks for stopping by and for saying hi! I have not gotten around to watching The Human Centipede yet, but I have a list of movies people want my opinion on. I’m gonna start going through that list when I finish the 30 days meme and I’ve put Centipede at #3 since I’m feeling a bit embarrassed at not having seen something I’ve heard so many great things about. Your blog isn’t linked to the comment here; where in the world wide web is it?

Oooo…I love horror movies! I watched The Human Centipede a few months ago. Ewwwww….
Wednesday's Child said:
In a little over a week, I will be watching it too. Ironically, the commenter above who asked for my opinion has a blog about delicious food.

Hey! I just watched the Nesting and did a web search to see what others had to say about it. I’m so happy I found your blog! My husband and I re big horror movie fans, and like Wedneday’s Child, we love the cheesy 80s movies (among others, of course.). I am looking forward to reading your reviews of other flicks! Thanks for the fun. And great writing, by the way!
Wednesday's Child said:
Oh wow, The Nesting. One of my favorite underrated ghost stories. Those scenes where she can’t make herself leave and the activity of the house really gets going are so nightmarishly fun.
Thanks for reading and commenting! Don’t be a stranger.

I popped in to browse some of your posts and I just have to say I love your voice – beautifully irreverent, and effectively snarky. I wish I could do that
Wednesday's Child said:
Why, thank you!
