Here at Castle Vanian, we also know it as That Convention We Needed the Nightmare on Elm Street Poster but Stupid Here […]

Movie Review: Late Phases
Ever stopped to wonder what Death Wish would have been like if the baddies had been geriatric werewolves? Wonder no more! I admit the premise for Late Phases is a bit strange.

A Song for Sunday: Andy Black – We Don’t Have to Dance
Have I already shared this one? Possibly. I’m sort of obsessed with it right now. I was never a huge fan of Black Veiled Brides but I am loving Andy Black’s new look. Ever wondered what a Fae would look like if they decided to become a rock star? Now we know.
