Description
My name is Erik and as long as I can remember I’ve loved horror. Horror movies. Horror novels. Horror comics. My life's milestones can be measured by the genre. It’s given me years of entertainment, as well as countless sleepless nights. It has kept me young at heart and filled my mind with wonderful memories that I cherish. This podcast is my way of sharing those moments with you. So, starting with my birth year of 1971, I’ll be listing my Top 10 horror films of every year of my life and discussing each one in detail with a little help from my friends. Join us as we journey from the Cradle to the Grave.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! To celebrate the best holiday ever, I got together with author JO KAPLAN, author JUNOT DIAZ, and artist / writer / horror historian STEPHEN BISSETTE for an amazing round table discussion about the milestones of the horror movie genre.
