The episode of Revisited covering The Ninth Configuration was Written by Matthew Pejkovic, Narrated by Kier Gomes, Edited by Jaime Vasquez, Produced by Lance Vlcek and John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
For many people the name William Peter Blatty will forever be linked to The Exorcist, the best-selling 1971 novel penned by Blatty that tells the story of a demonically possessed 11-year-old girl and the two priests who attempt to save her. Blatty would go on to adapt his novel for the 1973 feature film of the same name which, under the direction of William Friedkin, would enrich itself in the history of cinema as one of best horror movies ever made, in the process winning Blatty an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. Blatty’s presence as a filmmaker, though, wouldn’t be felt until the release of The Ninth Configuration (watch it Here), an adaptation of Blatty’s...

The episode of Wtf Happened to This Horror Movie? covering Critters 2: The Main Course was Written by Matthew Pejkovic, Narrated by Tyler Nichols, Produced by John Fallon, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.
Viewed by many as a low-budget rip-off of Gremlins, the 1986 sci-fi horror film Critters was a box-office success that spawned a film franchise. Critters 2: The Main Course (watch it Here), could not repeat the success of the first film, yet has gone on to become a cult favourite that marked the directorial debut of Mick Garris, the legendary horror filmmaker who took on the task of continuing the adventures of small yet deadly carnivorous aliens who eat their way through small town America. This time, however, box-office expectations were placed on the shoulders of the young filmmaker who found his first foray into directing a challenging yet educational experience, resulting in what Garris would later...

Now that Halloween is in the rearview mirror, the focus has shifted from movies that are designed to scare you out of your seat to ones that bring on the warm and fuzzy feelings associated with the Christmas season. Indeed, as is the case every year, a barrage of new festive-themed films are set to arrive and try and establish themselves in the pantheon of established classics that have reigned for decades like It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, Scrooged, Home Alone and the rest.
If you’re not the Christmas type, though, then Fatman could be the movie for you.
