Undulatory Terror

-

Pulsating with contempt,

Grey, with no little malignant fire,

Crawling, heavy and oppressive weight,

On, forward is it's path!

Grey, grim, pregnant gore!

No scene of colour here!

Ethereal laceration yearning!

Arterial spray of freedom!

March! Forcing on with bile,

Crawling, shoving, oozing through!

No relief, no rest from they!

Whose army know no fatigue!

Lurking, draining, defiling all,

How is this here?

Far, long and wide it is,

It shall never yield!

From George Romero's shuffling corpses in his 'Dead' franchise to the infected, nightmarish crazies of "28 Days Later", everyone has a favourite type of zombie too. This is the first in a series of articles which delves into the origins of the once dead and traces how a zombie turned ( pun intended ) into a staple of the horror genre.

Present day portrayals of the revival of the dead don't really include enchantment yet frequently invoke science fictional methods such as carri...

The Death Forest

-
It had existed as far back as anyone could remember. The forest was simply there. Covering several square miles, it was a sprawling mass of greens and browns during spring and summer. Autumn bought a heady mixture of colours, as it's inhabitants scurried around, preparing to hibernate for the years end. Winter saw a grey gloom settle in, a constant murky fog hanging in around and over the forest. It was beautiful in it's various forms, but sinister too. Because of it's natural, resplendent charm, people came, not just from around the country, but others too, soaking up some nature as they hiked through. Not all who entered found their way out. Of course the neighbouring villages offered maps and various trails to be walked but, to outsiders, the sensual lure of the forest was too much. Officially they succumbed to the elements. The locals suspected otherwise. All of this was lost on Danny, late of London, who was enjoying a gap year. After his parents divorce, and with less...

It is available in the original German language and English. Set mainly in Wismar and Transylvania, the film is considered a remake of the 1922 film Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens, which stars Max Schreck as Count Orlock. Jonathan Harker ( Ganz ) is sent to Transylvania by his boss, Renfield ( who is maniacally played by Roland Topor ) to complete the sale of property with Count Dracula. Leaving his wife Lucy, he arrives in Transylvania, only to be received by locals who are highly suspicious of The Count and plead with him to not visit the castle. On arrival at the castle, Jonathan is met by a grim, sinister looking Dracula. The deal is completed after Dracula becomes entranced by a picture of Lucy. Jonathan is plagued by nightmarish dreams in ...
