Posted on 14 March 201930 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps Necromentia (2009) wherein: demons are dicks, humans don’t decompose, lawyers can’t be trusted, singing pigs are massively dodgy, and I hope JC is still talking to me.

A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)

Posted on 13 October 201731 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps her most beloved horror movie, A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). It’s a love fest. From beginning to end.

Wickedpedia by Chris van Etten

Posted on 10 April 201731 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps Wickedpedia by Chris van Etten, one of the new Point Horrors, that address the injustice of the lack of diversity of leads in PH: we need MOAR WHITE MALES. And that’s probably the least shitty thing about this book. Brace yourself.

Books of Blood 3: The Coach by M. C. Sumner

Posted on 13 March 201731 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps Books of Blood 3: The Coach by M. C. Sumner, which is not really an accurate title, but behold EVEN MORE VAMPIRES, and they can look like anyone.

Books of Blood 2: The Hunger by M. C. Sumner

The Dead Game by A Bates

Posted on 12 September 201631 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps The Dead Game by A Bates, wherein an awfully boring game escalates to… well, Point Horror wackiness, as usual.

The Stranger by Caroline B Cooney

Posted on 29 August 201631 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps The Stranger by Caroline B Cooney, which turns out to be an unexpected joy. It is basically Twilight, except the Bella character is not an energy-sucking void, and the Edward character is cursed with an *actual curse*, rather than “tragically attractive and awfully good at everything he does”.

Haunting Christmas Tales – Part One

Posted on 21 December 201531 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps the first half of Haunting Christmas Tales by various authors. Don’t be misled by the summary, there is no framing story. Neither should the 13 series in Point Horror give you unrealistic expectations about the quality of these stories. They’re pretty average.

The Window by Carol Ellis

Posted on 8 September 201431 January 2021 by Dove

Dove recaps The Window by Carol Ellis, which was awesome back in the 90s, because of the cool location, the big cast, and my low standards. Is it still awesome now, or is it as dull as being forced to sit in a cabin in the mountains alone every day thanks to a broken ankle?
