Welcome to our first side dish – a quick talk about a great public domain horror movie. In fact, this one is the first recognized horror movie – House of the Devil from Georges Méliès. While it’s short – 3 minutes – its fascinating to see this put together and be a horror movie (loosely defined).
You can check it out and watch this classic:

Curse of the Cat People – Appetizer
Can someone tell me what this has to do with the cat people and they curse they bear? While not a bad little movie that makes you wonder is it a ghost or imagination – I really wish so many old movies didn’t have clickbait titles.

Sole Survivor – Appetizer Review

A Swedish horror movie. Not much of an actual horror movie, other than winter. The twists on the vampire is nice. Overall the movie is solid if not rememberable. Good special effects.
