I didn’t find the horror genre, it found me!! I only had a brief glimpse of what the horror meant in my youth. With movies like RESIDENT EVIL, HOUSE OF 1,000 CORPSES, PET SEMATARY, and THE STRANGERS found their way in front of my eyes... they gave me weeks of sweat drenched night terrors! Before those moments my scaries came in the delightful forms of classic BATMAN villains and the “Monsters of the Week” variety in BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER.

However, about five years ago, a few of my friends were convinced that I’d looooove classic horror, so they gave me lists of movies to watch. A daunting task, starting with the classic '80s genre and titles that were more suspense than horror. I fell head over heels. There’s something about the horror genre that can give anyone of any background, race, gender a platform for their experiences and emotions and get an audience to be empathic. I admire where the genre is headed and appreciate its roots. My absolute favorites are SCREAM, NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, CAMP, CABIN IN THE WOODS, ALIEN, SUSPIRIA, and TRICK ‘R TREAT. I’m pretty much drawn to anything with an incredible Final Girl, fantastic dark humor, and I’m definitely a sucker for those B-rated slashers!

Here are my TOP FIVE PICKS from our scary Mondo collection that will quench your thirst for Halloween Horror!
