Since our inception in 2016, PopHorror has always had an affinity for the black swans and humble beasts of the horror community. There are no pretty boys here. Creators of genre cinema have passion, spark and love for the creatures they bring to life, and it shows in every meet-and-greet, …

Once again, it’s time for some Vinegar Syndrome goodness! For September 2019, we’ve got a double feature of the 1990 T&A gorefest, Pledge Night, and the straight up horror flick, The Vineyard. I figured I’d pick Pledge Night to watch and review first, since I was in the mood for …

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed Andy Muschietti’s 2017 film, IT: Chapter One (read my review here). I had always loved the 1990 miniseries, despite its differences from Stephen King’s book. When going into a remake of one of my favorite stories, I always assume that I’m …

Once again, it’s time for our regularly scheduled Vinegar Syndrome Blu-ray release! For the end of summer 2019, we’ve got the 1984 indie sleeper hit, Decoder. Never heard of it?

I love to talk with Actor Casper Van Dien. He’s funny, attentive and down to earth, qualities that many who have spent decades in the Hollywood limelight seem to forget. Every since his breakout role in the sci-fi action film, Starship Troopers (1997), Van Dien has been on a wild …
