4 Shots From Horror History: Suspiria, Dawn of the Dead, Halloween, Zombi 2
This October, I’m going to be doing something a little bit different with my contribution to 4 Shots From 4 Films. I’m going to be taking a little chronological tour of the history of horror cinema, moving from decade to decade.
Today, we close out the 70s!

A Merry Christmas With The Greatest Film Ever Made
We celebrate the 6th year anniversary of the site and we continue a yearly holiday ritual over here at Through the Shattered Lens. I present to all of you readers, visitors and passer-byes the greatest holiday film ever created since forever, ever.
It is a film full of joy and happiness. Of giving and sharing with loved ones that which matters most. This is a film that best describes what Through the Shattered Lens stands for and works towards.
It even has a scene straight out of a Disney classic.
So, from all of us at Through the Shattered Lens….
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!
Scenes I Love: I Got A Rock!
Another Halloween has come and gone!
Here’s hoping that everyone had a great one, that everyone got what they wanted from the Great Pumpkin, and nobody came home with a bag full of rocks!
It’s almost time, kids…
