O, Canada!

Today is the great country of Canada's 141st anniversary and it's been about a month since Maple Leaf Macabre has seen an update. Well, look no further as we yet again trek down the rocky, yet pleasing roads of all things Canuck with a review of a long-lost oddity from New World Home Video, Ghostkeeper (1981)!

Hope you enjoyed this extended weekend and be safe out there! Happy Canada Day!

Cheers,

It doesn't happen often, but when it does it has every slasher fan jumping with joy! Friday the 13th is upon us once again and we're keen on celebration! In honor of the king of the masked madmen, Jason Voorhees (with an extra special thanks to his momma), we pay tribute to the series with two new reviews from the iconic body count series!

Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning
Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan

And, if you're craving another machete to the head, you can check out the other Crystal Lake terrors already in the database!

Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood
Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday
Jason X
Freddy vs. Jason

New Carnage Counts and Skin Scales!

(0) Posted on 2008-05-30 by Brett H.

After well over 150 reviews in just a hair over three months using the same graphics on our Carnage Counts and Skin Scales, we have decided to revamp our systems using new images for future reviews (reviews already posted will maintain their original graphics)! Will one of your favorite fright flicks be featured on the new graphics? Only time will tell and it all starts with today's review of The Psychic! Check in with us daily to see which new fornicators (not to mention those who frown upon their actions), murderers, and kill scenes will be featured!

Happy Easter and Section Announcement!

(0) Posted on 2008-03-23 by Brett H.

In order to celebrate this holiday weekend, Oh, the Horror! would like to announce our newest section, Maple Leaf Macabre, which is a featured review section specializing in horror films from my homeland and your neighbors to the North, Canada! Unlike other featured sections, these reviews won't necessarily be personal favorites (although some of them definitely are), but will be reviewed as both a horror film as well as how it relates Canada's history in film or the culture of the people in general (when applicable). These select reviews will be highlighted in white. All Canadian terrors we can get our hands on will be covered and rest assured there will be reviews of some very rare films in the coming weeks.

Be sure to check out the Critters 2 review, one of the few horror flicks out there with an Easter theme and one of six reviews added today! We hope everyone has a marvelous Easter bash and make sure to throw back a few Moosehead for us!

Cheers,
The Staff

Hello, and welcome to the grand opening of the newest horror review site on the web! Our goal is to get the word out on horror films from every era in the genre's illustrious history as well as have select sentimental reviews written from the heart covering films that have been our favorites for years. These will be easily spotted with their titles being highlighted in yellow in the recent review updates section. Every review the site has to offer can be found in the review index above and the more personal reviews featured can be found by clicking the images to the left, along with a more detailed criteria for these sections. To get things started, we have 12 reviews to satiate your lust for ghouls, gore, and let's be honest, naked women!

Rest assured there are plenty more where these reviews came from! Oh, the Horror! will be updated with new content daily and we hope you will pay us a visit again in the near future. If you have any comments or suggestions, please send me an e-mail at bretth@oh-the-horror.com, your thoughts are important to us.

Cheers,
The Staff
