A commenter on IMDB describes Little Witches as being like an R-rated version of Britney Spears’ “Hit Me Baby One More Time” music video but with a horror twist. That’s not entirely inaccurate. Pretty young girls in Catholic schoolgirl uniforms dabble in the dark arts, causing all manner of death, demonic horror, and wanton sluttiness.

Another sad moment for fans of the horror genre and beyond: The great Zelda Rubinstein has passed away at the all too young age of just 76.

It's hard to believe that the haunted house classic, Poltergeist is celebrating its twenty-fifth anniversary this year. I remember seeing this puppy in theatres way back when. Holy Christ, I feel old! In celebration of this momentous occasion, and the release of the new Poltergeist: 25
