This might be one of the guiltiest Guilty Pleasures that I ever wrote about. The post first ran in 2015. I should feel quite guilty about enjoying Nightwing, the 1979 horror film based on the Martin Cruz Smith novel of the same name—a movie reviled by both critics and...

This awesome horror movie still has chops (no pun intended) even after nearly four decades. I first presented this post in 2015. To be clear, I’m talking about John Carpenter’s 1980 version of The Fog, not the reboot in 2005, which—despite Carpenter’s involvement as a...
