About
I was introduced to horror at a very young age, thanks to my Uncle Ronnie, who took my sister and I to see movies like The Gruesome Twosome and Torso when we were very young. But I loved "scary movies," and the first one I became borderline obsessed with was the original Black Christmas. I began writing for 1428 Elm in 2018, and was the Site Expert when it shut down in November of 2025. Brian was one of my contributors, and together we decided to launch The Horror Lounge!

Hulu true crime docs in April: Terror on the Trails and #SKYKING
Hulu is once again adding some fascinating must-see true crime documentaries to their streaming platform in April. In February, Hulu released The Scream Murder , which was absolutely riveting, so let’s see if either of these two upcoming docs can meet or beat that one. First up is #SKYKING , which tells the very odd, riveting story of 28-year-old Richard “Beebo” Russell, who took a wild, unauthorized flight in a stolen Horizon Air De Havilland Canada Dash 8-400 airplane. The plane landed at...

A24 releases a first look behind the scenes video for Mother Mary
A24’s new psychological thriller Mother Mary is set to release in theatres later this month. A24 is best known for their “elevated” horror and thriller movies, so there is a lot of interest in this one, which Mother Mary director David Lowery calls “a weird, weird film.” If the director says it, it must be so! Mother Mary stars Academy Award winner Anne Hathaway as a very famous pop singer named Mary who is preparing for a comeback performance. She reunites with her once-friend Sam to have...

Late to the Party: reviews for films I didn't see until they were streaming - Primate
I love horror movies so much, and I am of the opinion that they are always better when seen in a theatre. Watching on a phone isn’t ideal, especially since horror films are often shot in lower light levels. But I’m also a busy girl, so I just don’t get the chance to catch every film I want to see in a theatre. So, I am starting a new series of film reviews wherein I review newer horror films that have recently begun streaming. For the first article, let’s talk about Primate , which is...

Terrified is one of the scariest movies on Shudder - and there is a remake in the works
Whenever people are on social media begging for a truly scary film, I have a short list of my own recommendations: The Autopsy of Jane Doe, Last Shift , When Evil Lurks , and Terrified are the usual movies I suggest. I will admit that I usually roll my eyes when the pleading post asks for “a movie that will traumatize me for life”, because nobody really wants that. But, I am a lifelong horror nerd who is somewhat desensitized to horror, so it’s rare for something to legit SCARE me....

The Horror Lounge is here to recommend three very different types of horror and thrillers, so let’s just jump right in. Thrash is written and directed by Tommy Wirkola, who was also responsible for the...

Here are 6 new horror movies that will be streaming in April
If you’re like me, you just don’t get to the theatre often enough to see all of the great horror movies when they first release. Thankfully, films tend to hit streaming platforms pretty quickly after their theatrical premieres, and April is looking pretty good! Here are the horror movies I am looking most forward to streaming in April (and the ones I most ashamed to have missed in theatres). Dolly – This is the one movie on this list that I actually have seen, though it was a screener and...
