Welcome to Horrorthon!

We are off to a big start, this October!  In fact, it took only four days of Horrorthon for me to get sick, congested, and feverish.  From Friday to …. well, now, I have been watching and reviewing movies while sick and in bed.  I am now starting to feel a little bit better but still, I take this as a reminder to myself, my collaborators and our readers that the scary season should always be fun.  Be sure to watch a lot of horror movies this month but also be sure to take care of yourself as well!  (My friend Mark has often warned me about pushing myself too hard and this week proved him right!)

On another note, my friend Lauren lives in North Carolina and she reports that the situation there is a hundred times worse than what is being portrayed in the news.  So, keep her and everyone else who was in the path of the hurricane in your thoughts, at the very least.

Here’s what I watched, read, and listened to this week!
